Great all around shoe. I wear a size 6M and it fits perfect. When the shoes arrived I tried them on immediately, without socks! Wore them the rest of the afternoon bec of their comfort.

So Comfortable! Not like breaking in a new shoe. Very lightweight, cooling because of the mesh and very supportive. I would definitely buy another pair.

I loved this shoe. I got this and pair of K Swiss for comparison. I returned the K Swiss and kept this one.
It was very comfortable right out of the box; I didn't have to "break it in" in any way.
Sizing felt true to size and the arch support was just right for me. I don't have high arches or flat feet.
They were comfortable for road running and just wearing around. I would definitely get them again.

Asics shoes fit me very well. These are very comfortable and have great support. They arrived in a few days; no shipping charge and they were on sale! I am very pleased.

I love my shoes, I have been wearing Asics for years, these are one of my favorites, light weight yet very cushioned. I used to buy my Asics a full size larger but they are suddenly making them smaller. I bought these half a size larger and they are perfect.

Great buy, the picture does not do justice. In the picture the laces look like red and black but it's actually pink and black. Very comfortable shoes so far.

Extremely pleased with these shoes - wore them to work the first day I had them, and worked on my feet for 8-9 hours and was amazed that I was comfortable all day without a break-in period. My orthotics fit into them perfectly as well.

Great, light-weight all-purpose shoes. I've only been wearing them to the gym about a month, thus far they're showing signs of holding up well. Much more affordable than New Balance equivalent products.

These are very supportive, and very comfortable. I was packing, getting ready to move and our home was all tile. After one day in another brand's casual sneaker, I thought my feet were gonna fall off! I ordered these early enough in the day that theywere here the next day and thank God! I highly recommend! Beside the pink and lavendat accents are so cute.

This is the second pair of Asics I've owned and these haven't disappointed me either. The first pair I owned I bought for running. Other than needing additional arch support, they were great until I finally wore them out.
My back can't take the running anymore, but I still wanted Asics and these were ON SALE! Great light weight shoe for walking, which I do now. And, yes, I just transferred my arch supports from the old ones to these and they work just fine.

These shoes are amazing! I bought my first pair at a retail store and soon realized that these were exceptional shoes. A week later I bought another pair from Zappos and I'm thinking about getting a 3rd pair before they change or discontinue this series. They are very light weight, comfortable and come in wide widths. Most importantly for me, they provide amazing cushion which I need for my plantar fasciitis. My feet were hurting so bad in my other shoes that I had to stop walking. But now thanks to these amazing shoes, I have resumed my 2 to 3 mile daily walks, which my dog and I are thrilled about!

I have a dream. I dream to one day jog a road covered with down comforters. I dream to run with pillows surrounding my feet. I many never have these dreams come true, but these shoes are getting me as close as physically possible. I do not run that much, so I can speak to you runaholics, but light to moderate runners I would recommend these shoes. They are light, provide good support, and breathable.

Asics are a great shoe! I buy a pair every Spring; and designate the old ones for "gardening". They have a very good arch support and are cushiony feeling~have plantar fascia & these do the trick; I can wear them all day. These work well for we "narrow footed" gals as well.

I am a massage therapist and on my feet all day. These are, by far, the most comfortable sneaks I have ever bought. This fan is going to order another pair in a different color right now.

Love these shoes. The are the most comfortable tennis shoes I've had in a long time. They stabilize my foot and cushion it at the same time.

I like these shoes. This is the first time I have purchased the ASICS brand. I went by the reviews of other people who got them and they were right. Have good support and I wear the wide width and they aren't to narrow have a great fit. A plus are the bright colors to choose from.

I could not be more pleased with the looks, comfort and support. I have a wide foot with flat arches. A wonderful value for the price! I plan to order another color soon.

I have bought Asics before and have been very happy with the brand. This is no different. The colors are very bright and true to the picture. Love 'em.

Love these shoes! My search for cheap, colorful, and comfortable sneakers led me to your site. My friend is a long-time Zappos customer. The shoes have been incredibly fun and comfortable since day one. The delivery rate was fantastic. The price cannot be beat. Thank you!

Great fit, my first time buying wide shoes (online, no less) so I was a little skeptical about how they'd fit. Had to get rid of two pairs of athletic shoes as they were both starting to rub my baby toe. Happily, these are very comfortable, provide a little arch support (just what I need) and overall I'm very happy with them.

I bought these shoes to wear at the gym in various cross-training workouts. It fit perfectly and was very comfortable from the first time I wore them. Too soon to comment on their durability, but for style, comfort and support they are very nice.

I need a wide width shoe with good cushioning for my fast walks. I have a bunion problem which adds to my needs. This is my third pair and I've been pleased. Only suggestion is that I've had to size up in addition to the wide width. They run small. I tried the orthotic shoe first and was disappointed. A really good looking and comfy shoe!
