I love these shoes! They are comfortable right out of the box for a long day on my feet, feel great for walking (I do not run) and I love the colors!

I really like Asics Gel cross-trainers because they provide the necessary arch support and padding I need for Jazzercise and Zumba classes. I have tried the Gel trainer 170, 250 and 260 and this is my first time trying out the Exalt. Exalt is noticeably lighter than the 170s and supported me during the lateral moves and jumps in class.

Whoopee! My six pairs of shoes arrived the next day! The arch support in this shoe is great! I like the way they hug my heel! Great fit! I did not order a half size bigger as other people suggested. I will be using these shoes for walking and Zumba! My feet are happy!

I have hard to please feet (think the arches have fallen) & go through a lot of shoes to find a good one. As soon as I put this shoe on, it was, hallelujah, they feel great (it's a rare occasion to get a comfy shoe first time). Very comfortable, plenty of room at the front of shoe, arch in right place, perfect shoe for my achy feet! I did order a half size larger than usual. Thank you and hope you never stop making this style! I will definitely buy again!

This shoe has a really nice look. It provides all the support and quality that I expect out of Asics shoes. This pair felt slightly narrower than my other Asics, but not enough to make then uncomfortable. I have had great luck with Gel-Exalt running an average of 10-12 miles a week, but would consider upgrading to a more cushioned version for more weekly mileage. Overall another great stability shoe from Asics.

I love my Asics gel shoes. They are the most comfortable shoes I have ever had. I walk alot and these shoes are just perfect for long walks. I have not one complaint.

Love them! Perfect for work and being on your feet for 8 hours and then to the gym after. Fit was right on and just super comfy. Definitely a great purchase!

A very comfortable, every day use shoe with adequate stability for Step and Body Works, and long walks. I also re-ordered the Gel Kayano 18 in a different color and at a lower price than last year's 18 magenta/grey/lightening because it is the best aerobics shoe I've ever worn. One needs to switch out shoes daily so they can "breathe" and be refreshed with a cedar shoe bag insert. The Kayano 18 is superior to the Exalt for stability and overall performance. A suggestion, especially for a returning customer, is that Zappos notify her when their shoe choice is going on sale. I inadvertently found the Kayano 18 for less through Zappos who referred me to another vendor. Thanks for that!

I bought this for my everyday gym shoe & not specifically for running. Super cute. Firm sole. Good support. I wanted to keep them, but the toe box is a little too narrow for me. I wouldn't describe it as a narrow shoe, but rather I prefer more than the usual space in toe boxes. (Asics Pulse 3 has wider toe box but it's not as firm, which some may prefer.) As with all my Asics, I ordered half a size up, which is the correct size in the Exalt. Thanks to Zappos' easy return process, I'm sending these back and trying something else.

I really like these shoes. I bought more expensive Asics walking shoes last time -- I like these better and they were a lot cheaper!

These shoes feel great, just like all of my other Asics gels. I was very pleasantly surprised by the color of the shoes. They aren't nearly as bright as they appear online. The colors blend well with many of my workout clothes and I've gotten several compliments.

I love these shoes! They arrived quickly, about a week ago, and I've worn them every day. I had an injury several years ago to my left foot, and I've always had incredibly hard feet to fit anyway. I've found I can always rely on ASICS to fit and feel great. And I'll add that I love the color combination of the titanium, lightning, grape colors. They look as great as they feel.

I am training for half-marathon in May 2013...Asics shoes came highly recommended from a family member...and boy were they right, these are amazing. My first run with the Gel-Exalts was easy, no more leg and high pain. I finally found the right shoes. Zappos has super-fast shipping and very easy check out.

These are very comfy shoes. I've always loved Nikes and have tried them with my last two pairs of running shoes, but there was not enough cushion or arch support. These Asics have just the right amount of cushion and I didn't even have the "wear in" period. They were comfortable the minute I put them on and I've continued to be pleased.

Great shoe for the money. I am a power walker averaging 35 miles per week. Have always worn Mizuno but found that for the price they don't perform any better. I have plantar fasciitis and I over prone but this shoe works well.This was a great find and I will purchase another pair.

I have always used Asics for working out/running. The are the absolute best shoes. My all time favorite are the Gel-Pulse 2. The Gel Exalt are nice but not as cushy.

I can see why these shoes get such good reviews. They had excellent arch support and are great exercise shoes for those of us with plantar fasciitis. My only teeny tiny complaint is I wish they were a little cuter, but I am the first to sacrifice looks for comfort.

This is a sexy ride for any woman's foot. Well made but the sizing is a tad off for me as the big toe on one of my feet rubs on the toe reinforcement piece.

Nice shoe. Looks good, comfortable, lightweight. Two drawbacks: runs narrow and arch support is only moderate.

So upset that these don't feel like any of my old Asics! I have loved the gel Asics for years and this is the first pair that are not squishy! I even went to a local store to try on sizes that don't fit just to see if it was this style or one shoe! They all feel hard inside! I even tried a couple of different styles from Zappos yet they both ran small and the squish/comfort factor wasn't there either. I have kept them only because these shoes are still the only ones that fit correctly and give my flat feet the proper amount of support. Would rather have had the purple color too. The silver just isn't that cute.

These are moderately cushiony but the big thing to note is they are very narrow and tight in the instep. Nothing like another old basic model of Asics I own. My feet are not wide and I do have a fairly high arch. They are very very cute, but way too tight so I have to return.
