Wow! I took these out of the box, put them on, and wore them the entire day! My last Asics were men's because I couldn't find a shoe store that carried the larger sizes. The men's shoe does not fit correctly, duh. Even so I really liked the support and comfort they provided. Needless to say when I checked Zappos and found the larger sizes I had to try them. And I am glad I did. The medium width is perfect and the support is exactly what I was looking for - I knew from past experience that most athletic shoes run anywhere from a half size to full size smaller than regular shoes so I automatically went up a whole size and it is perfect. Thanks Zappos!

These are the best shoes ever! It's like walking on 10 memory foam rugs! I get foot cramps when I exercise, but with this my feet never cramp or ache. I did order them a half size bigger because my feet swell (I'm a nurse). I recommend these 100%. Very good stability and comfort! A little bit clunky, but not much, and totally worth it!

I wore these to Jazzercise and found them to be great!
I have wide feet with one bunion and the shoe accommodated my foot just fine. Good cushioning for active aerobic program.

Right out of the box, on my feet and headed to my aerobic class. They felt great! Super comfy - exactly what I was hoping for and got some compliments (score!). Overall, very happy!

These shoes were amazingly comfortable and easy to run in the first time I put them on. I like them so much that I will reorder again.

Comfortable right out of the box. I'm on my feet all day at the hospital and these shoes are great, no more sore feet or shin splints!

I am on my feet ALL day in a hospital. These shoes are SO comfortable! Right out of the box it sighed w relief. Excellent cushion & arch support and I especially love the little bit of extra room in the toes. No more big toe nail pain! They also seem much more durable then other Asics I've owned. Buying a second pair now.

I have wide feet with the addition of prominent bunions so I need wide shoes. These fit great right out of the box. My only complaint is the color. In size 11 they always look like they should be in a parade. I wish we could have some more subdued colors, however, this is a fairly pretty color. Around here the red dirt turns everything reddish pretty fast so anything white is impossible.

I have been wearing the Aric's gel-exalt,which I like very much. I would have reordered the same shoe but the only color available was what I already had. So, on to this new pair and very comfy and lots of cushion. I work in a hospital so I am delighted after day one, just as comfy as the exalt.

Fit great the first time I put them on. Ran a 5K race in them the same week I received them. Wear them strictly for running.

Love everything about these Asics. My third pair...my first lasted 4ever. I have multiple sclerosis and a footdrop. I wear a brace up to my knee and under the length of my foot and these sneaks, without the insole are great! Thanks Zappos. kisses and hugs for the quickness of my shipment and ordering from you was a great experience!

Very comfortable just like all the other Asics I have purchased. I love the colors and of course, they are durable. I am more comfortable in a half-size bigger than what I wear in other shoes though.

I can rave all day long about my new Asics Gel Flux sneakers. I have been wearing Asics exclusively for over 20 years. They are the most comfortable and very stylish. I have three pairs of white gels from 20 years ago (I kid you not) and just washed them and am giving two pairs to a clothing drive. They still look amazing after all these years and I have worn them to the gym, walking along the beach, etc. I know it sounds crazy but it is the truth! That says something about the craftsmanship of these sneakers! I absolutely love my Asics! (Now I am down to five pairs)!

Love these - I like that I can always order the same size from Asics and they fit perfectly every time. These shoes feel great and have great support. I have a narrow foot, and it is difficult to find shoes that fit me and have good support, too!

Finally, a shoe that fits! I have gone through several pairs (and sizes) looking for a wide, well-cushioned neutral running shoe, trying to replace my super old Nike Vomeros, and I kept finding shoes that wouldn't fit my wide feet or that gave me shin problems after just a few minutes on the treadmill. I love my Gel-Flux shoes, but even in wide, they're still quite narrow. My size is typically 7.5 with a bunion on one foot, and I ended up exchanging my 8s for 8.5s, which fit great after I added my own firm inserts. The little bit of extra length is no issue at all. The body of the shoe has excellent cushioning and with changing the lacing, I've experienced no shin issues and no break in period. Super comfy! Thanks to Zappos for awesome return service, too.

I received a pair of these today for my 40th birthday - this morning I did a 5k in my old (about 300 mile) Asics Gel Equations, as I figured new shoes for a 5k would be a bad idea. This afternoon, I wore the Gel Flux on my 2 mile dog walk - they are fabulous! I am confident that I could have worn them to the race this morning, and would probably have been better off. New shoes (that fit right) are a wonderful thing for feet, and I really like this particular model. It reminds me of Asics I had about 7 years ago, that were sadly discontinued. I probably need to stock up on this model while it is still around!

I used to run 10 miles a day following a traumatic ski injury that resulted in loss of cartilage in my knee. I found that Asics allowed me to run with cushioning following that event. I now, at age 64, am limited to walking but a cushioning shoe is still equally important to me because I have traumatic arthritis in one knee. My husband had to stop running, as well and bought a pair of the same after hearing me rave about these on our walk. He has arthritis in one hip. If I was still running and doing triathlons, I would want this shoe.

I normally buy New Balance, but wanted a lighter weight shoe. I wear a size 12, so stick with same shoe for fit. I love these shoes,and they are even cute!! My foot runs on the narrow side and the Asics fit well there also, so I don't feel like I'm wearing bulky guy shoes! I will buy again.

Good looking shoe. Comfortable as all Asics I have tried have fit good. No longer buying Nike shoes. However, these feel narrow and I purchased wide. I have let the laces out 4 times. Roomy toebox, just tight mid foot. Super fast shipping. Zappos has best customer service. Happy customer.

I tried lots of different athletic shoes before I settled on these. These shoes stabilize my ankles and are very impact resistant. I also really appreciate the fact that they are well ventilated and my feet do not get overly hot. I highly recommend these shoes.

This is my second pair of Asics Gel-Flux. Love that they come in wide comfort and wear well. Hoping this shoe is not discontinued. Zappos is the only place I purchase my shoes. I am a long time pleased customer!

Great shoes! This is my 2nd pair. I had a pair, wore them out, and then tried to save money by purchasing the Cumulus which were on sale. Hated those -- arches were not supportive enough. So returned them and these were on sale by then - yay! Couldn't be happier.

This is my first pair of Asics. I've only worn them a few times, and will be running a 5K in them this weekend. So far, the fit is good. They are true to size. Also very lightweight. I had them on in a long car ride, and they started getting uncomfortable - like the tongue was digging into the top of my foot. I just loosened them slightly and it was okay. I also like like the minimal use of green, as I was looking for a fairly neutral looking shoe. I will use these mostly for running, but also occasionally wear with jeans.
