I read all the reviews and comments, and ordered a half-size larger than I would normally wear. I’m glad I did, as they definitely run smaller than normal. I wouldn’t say they’re a full-size smaller--more like a half-size. Width is average. The shoe feels nice and stable, but not dead or clunky like some.

Shoe is good so far. Sole is tacky. I play racquetball on a dusty court twice a week. I also play table tennis in them once or twice a week. The shoe is wider than most, especially in the front section. It’s comfortable for me as I have a wider foot.

Nice, lightweight sneaker. Not enough cushioning to be a running or basketball shoe, but perfect for wearing to the gym. Plus the blue color just pops!

Very similar to other Asics court shoes. Easier fitting than Asics Volley-cross (which offers a little more support around the foot). Excellent value.

Good shoe -
Looks good, feels good, and you can use it in most all situations, except snow.

Overall--I love Chaco sandals--I have 3 pair and plan to purchase more. The arch is great, the quality is superb--they last forever--& I can wear them in and out of the water. This pair is my least favorite. The multi strap around the toe tends to slide into a choke hold more easily than the one strap toe band. I still like them, but I know that I will be adjusting the strap more frequently than the others.

ASICS Gel-Rocket 4: Casual Volleyball Player -
Shoes felt great on my feet on night one. They're lightweight but not too light to feel naked when cutting and diving. I'm a heavier player (6'2", 235), so substance is important. I trust my body--and my feet--to these. I've played a half-dozen matches on them since getting them and am completely satisfied. Would've bought the black ones if they'd been in stock in my size (13EE). This was my first purchase through Zappos, and I will definitely be back. The shoes arrived FAST and shipping was complementary.
Thanks!

Great for Practices -
I love these shoes for my practices. I think that it is a little too heavy and could use more grip to be shoe to wear in games. It holds up great when running for warm-ups, and is very agile if you keep your sole clean. Overall it is a great shoe, and I see it as great shoe for beginner because of the price.
I'd also recommend:

Nice Shoe -
I use these for squash. My second pair of asics for squash and really like them a lot. Only thing I’ve noticed about these is that the insoles slip a little bit, but its whatever. Overall great shoe.

Great Shoe!
This shoe was exactly what I want in a volleyball shoe. It is light weight yet sturdy and didn't need any break in time - was very comfortable from the moment I put it on. My only minor complaint is that it is a tiny bit narrow for my foot but not enough to cause any issues.

It is a great shoe in performance as well as price. Highly recommended. I use it to play Badminton, which requires jumping for smashes, moving side to side as well as front to back quickly. Great rubber sole for excellent traction on any surface. Excellent indoor court shoes. As always, I received the shoes earlier than scheduled due to Zappos excellent shipping and handling! And it is free too. Thank you very much!

ASICS for volleyball - The shoe fit perfectly and is perfect for the intended use. There was no need to break it in, the shoe was comfortable from the first wear.

As a coach for a HS volleyball team I needed a solid pair of volleyball shoes. But as a HS volleyball coach, I needed a pair I could afford. These Asics were perfect and exactly what I needed. I was afraid, because of the low price that I would have to give up a little quality but I recommend these shoes to anyone. I would recommend Zappos even more so! I've never dealt with anyone that gave better service and cared more about customer service than this organization. Thanks for everything and God Bless.

I'm a 10.5 wide, but the 11Ds seem to work okay for me. These are pretty grippy and comfortable so far. Nice and responsive, yet stable. Using them for table tennis (note: NOT ping pong) and they work really well, just wish that I could get them in widths.

Good Shoe -
Does what it needs to. Good traction on court. Not as good quality as their more expensive shoes, but quality matches price. Would probably purchase again.

This is my second pair of Gel-Rockets. It\'s still a very good shoe. I\'m not crazy about the changes. The upper shoe is no longer made with leather. The sole is stiffer. Since I already own a pair I didn\'t read reviews about the smaller sizing. That\'s also new. All of these changes have made the shoe a little less comfortable. So, when these ware out I\'ll probably get something else.

Solid shoe, but I wouldn’t recommend as a gym shoe/cross trainer. Biggest positive is the durability - I am a big guy and it took the beating well. Biggest negatives were a VERY stiff sole that made spinning class a little difficult and I feel there could be more cushion on the sides of the shoe. Decent overall.
