These Gels turned out to be a fantastic show for this active 75-year-old who hits the treadmill at the YMCA for 30 minutes every single morning! Thanks Zappos, but you need to set up a website for aging customers to feature shoes that are foot-friendly to aging feet. There is a huge pool out there of aging actives, so set your marketing team to work!

I got these shoes after completing the first month of the insanity workout with old Adidas cross trainers. These have made a world of difference and are perfect for all the plyometric exercises.

I received the shoes shortly after ordering them and have been using them in the gym and outside, here in Afghanistan. I like the shoes very much; they are light yet well constructed and are very comfortable to run in. Thank you, Asics, for making such a good shoe. Thank you, Zappos, for the good price and getting the shoes here in such a short time frame.

I've been wearing Asics running shoes for running, walking, cardio machines, etc. for 15 years and decided to branch out into cross-trainers as an experiment since most of my exercise is actually in a gym and is not long distance. These shoes are much less expensive than the Asics running shoes I've been using but seem to be just as high of quality. Also, I used to be a powerlifter and use specialized shoes for training. Once I stopped powerlifting, I would use running shoes for weightlifting and always feel like I was missing something. These cross trainers do a great job providing the stability I enjoy while still providing great support for cardio exercise.

I do not run. I am 75 and have bad 11 1/2 AA feet. Running shoes are best for me but most are too wide. So I buy shoes a lot in search of a pair that will fit. Hooray! These fit me and are very comfortable. Love the Orange, my fav color.

I climb a granite mountain trail (1.7 miles up) almost every day, Very uneven and hard surface. These shoes meet all my needs for support, traction, cushioning.

Very comfortable and supportive for my various cross-training workouts. One minor comment...the thin mesh fabric in the toebox was an adjustment at first.

Second pair of Asics, but first time getting them from Zappos. Absolute great fit. They do seem a little narrower than my previous pair, but it is fine for my feet (or possibly my previous Asics ran big?) Either way, good support on the heel and the shoes bend the right way when I step off. Love the breathable mesh. Conservative black and silver is a great color combination. Plus, Zappos gave me free overnight shipping. Would buy from again and again!

If you have a wide forefoot with narrower heels, this roomy toe box fits great. If you have normal heels these would work, too. The point is the P.H.F. system surrounds and holds your heel in place--no slipping! Lightweight, breathable, excellent cushioning and supporting platform. Great for light running, gym, short basketball games, riding bikes, walking, every day getting around. Good lateral traction for side to side movement. Would prefer a color other than black, but one thing I knock Asics for is their designs. Wish they would stop using robot silver all together and colors like pea soup green. White with red is not practical to maintain a clean look. I would buy lighter colors if they looked decent. Not sure if Asics will discontinue these, so I bought another pair because I like them so much.

These shoes are at least as good as a pair I bought in the Mall of Georgia for $180 and Zappos price was over a lot less and no shipping cost. The whole transaction took less than three days and the shoes fit perfectly.

The shoe works fine. The depth of the shoe box was a little closer than most athletic shoes. This could be a problem for those using a thick orthotic insert.

I had recently started going to the gym and my leather hi-tops were too hot after a work out. Needing some comfortable shoes to work out in I came to Zappos. After I had ordered them I realized that I had ordered a half size to large. Getting the order changed took a simple phone call. When the shoes arrived and made their way to the gym I found them to be very comfortable and breathable and light on the treadmill and perfect for walking or jogging.

A very good, very comfortable shoe for exercise of all kinds and just walking around. Toe box felt a little wide at first but now I'm used to it.

These are great running shoes. They are extremely comfortable. They are not the most stylish shoes I want to wear.

A good looking shoe with plenty of cushion for running, but dont get them if your feet are even a little wide. I ordered a half size bigger than I would normally thinking the width would be ok, but even then they were too tight.

Good Shoes, lightweight, comfortable. I use them for weight workouts in the gym and they feel good and give adequate support. Also use them for short runs 2-3 miles about 2x a week. So far so good.

These shoes fit great. The size was right on as far as size and width feel. They fit just right and didn't need a "break in" period. Bought them, got them, and wore them without any issues. Great shoe for running (treadmilling) and walking, support is good.

This shoe is very basic. The design is ugly. The fit is fair, but it does rub against my outer foot more than I would like.
