Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Venture® 4

I'm very happy with these sneakers for the value. The green is more neon than I was prepared for. But for such a good price I am keeping them. Most importantly they are comfortable.

Ouch. Darn, I always order asics size 10 and have had many pairs over the years. I don't know why, but these hurt my feet and I cannot wear them for big walks. They fit in length, width, etc. but they just aren't the same as the others…I guess I can't send them back as I've worn them on the street. Waste of money! But kudos to zappos: I click and then my doorbell rings, how do they do it so fast?

Love the colors. Thought since I walk so many dirt paths each day with the dogs these soles would be good. But the interior is inferior to the Asics that cost more. In fact, replaced rough and hard sole bed with softer Dr Scholls from drug store.

These sneakers are cute but unfortunately very uncomfortable. They were a bit stiff with little to no arch support. I put them on in my house but took them off after 10 minutes.

I recently ordered 3 pairs of Asics shoes ranging in size from 10.5D to 11EE. (For comparison I usually wear New Balance in a 10.5D.) Although the shoes were great looking, had decent support, and seemed well constructed, not one of the sizes I ordered were wide enough to fit as comfortably as my New Balance shoes. Additionally I have custom arch support insoles that fit great in a New Balance shoe, but the toe box in the Asics brand seemed smaller so I didn't even try to put them in. I guess my bottom line is that if you have feet at are wide and/or thick this might not be the best shoe for you. Unfortunate since they were so cute looking online!

Didn't like these, they were really tight in my size compared to other asics. Plus they have no support, they make my feet hurt.

These lower priced Asics are nothing like the higher priced versions. I bought these as cute walking shoes, but after five miles at a fast pace, my right arch was killing me. I cannot even wear them to the grocery store now as the soles bend strangely and cause pain. Too bad I cannot return them. Money down the drain. Bought a pair of GT-2000s instead, like my old pair.

I ordered this because I have wide feet but I was disappointed. I think that the width of this shoe is comparable to a regular width of other brands I have purchased (such as New Balance). I had to return these because they would not work for me.

I am 33 year old restaurant manager; I bought these for work could tell 1st day they were no good. Felt like I was walking on concrete.

Very nice looking sneaker. Worst shoes I've ever worn, very uncomfortable. They make my feet hurt! Would never buy this brand again!

To my great disappointment, they are poorly made. The seams under the throat line are not sewn properly-- the "bumps" underneath put too much pressure on top surface of my feet. Even though the design look nice (thus 3 stars) but it is very very uncomfortable. Such a shame, especially ASICS!
