Happy Customer -
Love my Asics Gel 1140. I run exclusively in Asics. They offer wonderful support for arch, knee and back protection. Zappos' selection of Asics is phenomenal; you'll have a hard time choosing your favorite! Outstanding customer service, you will not regret shopping with Zappos.

Great running shoe -
I consider myself an avid runner who just doesn't get to do it as much as I'd like - I typically run 5-6 miles at a time, but only get out about 3 or 4 times a week, and these shoes are perfect for the type of mileage. Great deal of support - usually I blister and take awhile to wear in a running shoe, but this one was super comfortable already my first time out. Really a cute shoe, too, great color & look!

Great shoe for someone with flat and wide feet like mine. I’ve for years been using shoes that don’t give me enough support while running only because the ones that do just plain hurt or have an arch support that digs into your foot because it’s too much for flat feet. Thought that these were pretty true to size and despite having wide feet, the normal width (B) fit me just fine. Very pleased with them. Really wish they had better colors though. These shoes don’t look of this decade - but the functionality makes them worth it.

Very good support!
I walk between 3-3.5 miles a day and the Asics are the best. I have tried others and I like these the best.

True to size and function -
Just started running, and this is a functional and reasonably priced shoe for someone with flat feet and ankle problems. These have helped IMMENSELY with reducing overuse injuries in my ankles.

Awesome running shoe!
I was a little nervous about ordering running shoes online, but after they arrived (much earlier than I expected!) and I put them on, I am a happy camper. These are awesome shoes - no kidding! Perfect fit, perfect sizing. They are very comfortable and make my foot feel secure when I am running. I even feel like they improved my balance a bit. I would recommend these shoes to anyone!

Fantastic cushioning, extremely comfortable!
I tried on 6 different types of running and training shoes, all high quality and name brand. None of them felt as supportive as these and the gel-cushioning, well, you can absolutely feel in, both under the balls and heels of your feet. My first pair of Asics, but they definitely won't be my last!

Always a Comfortable Winner!
I have been ordering this brand and model for years. Each year the model is updated and I order it and the fit and wearability is fabulous.

One of my favorite running shoes -
I have bought Asics for running for the past five years or so. I have been running for over twenty years. They are great for accommodating my orthotics. They are very stable and keep my stride in line. They are a good fit for me; which means a little extra room in the toes. My only complaint is that they seem to wear out quickly. I only run 16-20 miles per week and I need to replace them every three months.

Well, this is my first sport shoe, and I honestly have to say that I would have to buy another pair to be sure if I like. This shoe is nowhere near true to size! I wear an 8.5/9, got these in a 9.5, but I could have used a 10! The width is fine. Where the toes are, it is vented! Air can come in the sneaker which is great. Also my feet don’t hurt as much when I walk in the ASICS.

I love the Gel-1130, so assumed that these shoes would fit just the same. I was wrong - the heel seemed to be just a little big higher, and my (narrow) heel slipped out of them, while they did not in the 1130, even on the first time wearing them. If you don’t have a narrow heel, these will probably be fine for you. I’m going to try the 1150 instead to see if the fit is more in line with the 1130s. Also - order a 1/2 size up in this line.

This shoe works for me so far. I run about 15 miles per week mostly on trails. I like New Balance, because of the wide toe box and lightness. They don't seem to last. We'll see on this one. One thing though, I normally wear a 7.5 wide and I bought this shoe in an 8D. The D is not all that wide, and I needed the extra length to fit my foot.

I love these shoes. I found them by accident and bought them as an alternative to the Gel Nimbus 9, which I found to be very disappointing after the Gel Nimbus 8. When I had read the Gel-1140 was going to be "upgraded" soon to the Gel-1150, I bought six pairs of the 1140s. It's hard to find running shoes you really love, and "upgrades" aren't always for the better. The heel has a nice cushion and the front offers a stability that I found I missed when I went to a more neutral-cushioned shoe.

A great shoe! I was told by a running company that this Asics Gel was good for someone with a slight pronation- helping to stabilize while at the same time not over-tilting the other non-pronating foot. It does take some adjusting when you run or walk in it for the first time and are not used to a shoe with this kind of support. Also I think it's a very good-looking shoe! And thanks to Zappos who delivered the shoe in less than 24 hours to my doorstep...for free!

True to fit -
This shoe is comfortable and true to fit. I have bought Asics in the past and needed to go up a whole size. Not this time. I bought this in a wide and it is comfortable.

I purchased these shoes since I am a pro-nator and these shoes came in a D width. I ran in shorter races a couple of times with no issues. I recently ran a 1/2 marathon in them and up until mile 8 I was fine, then noted about mile 10 that I was having some serious issues and ended up with blisters on both feet and debating on whether to keep these shoes or not. I have a different model Asics that I have had a better experience with, but this particular model was awful for me, especially running longer than a 10K.

This shoe ran big for me -
I always buy 10.5 Asics and this is the first time the shoe has fit about 1/2 size too big. The toe box was really wide as well. I had to check to see if I ordered wide on accident.
