Customer Reviews ASICS Metrolyte™

I knew I should have not bought them after reading the 1 review about the tongue of the shoe. The tongue is not movable so its attached to the whole shoe so slipping into them isn't an easy task. The whole hole opening is one size and you have to struggle to put your foot in. Its too much work and hurts your fingers to help shove your heel in the back in. Also I normally wear a 8.5 in athletic shoes but that was too large for me, I had to go down 1/2 size so I bought and 8 and they fit fine. I wouldn't say I have a wide foot but these were a little light on me. They are lightweight and would look cute with capris or shorts. Just wish the struggle to put them on wasn't an issue!

I love these shoes - they are as light as a feather, but the tongue is attached and that makes it hard to get them on.

Really cute but not quite true to size. In all my other Asics I wear an 8½ and regular width. These were shorter and narrower.Too bad there was not a wide option; I think that would have helped. I ordered the next half size up, and its width worked but length was just a little too much. For my fit, more arch support would be better. All other Asics give me good arch support.

This shoe is very comfy and stylish. However, the fabric where my big toe hits is thin and I suspect I would get a hole in these.

Cute shoe, very lightweight, but very hard to get on. I've had this pull-on style (different companies) before and have never had this problem. Maybe it would work better for someone with a lower instep.

I found this shoe looking for a replacement for my Gel-Fit Sana 2, which I have literally worn into the ground. This shoe is almost as comfortable, although the very low back makes it feel as though it's going to slip my heel. Even worse, the style is really stodgy - and it makes my (already large) foot look even bigger. Sorry to say it's going back. I'm not ready for old-lady shoes.

This feel great....IF you get them on your feet. They do not open up. The laces conceal the fact that they are a very tight and difficult slip-on. It was a challenge to get my feet into them, even wearing a slippery footie to ease the task. With a sock or a no-show athletic footie, it's nearly impossible, even with the correct size. A shoe horn is recommended and even then you might have a struggle. I can't recommend these. A re-design, with a standard lace and tongue opening, would make them a great, good-looking, gad-about casual shoe.

After wearing these for less than a week, the fabric loop in the back is fraying and coming apart! So disappointing because I love them otherwise :(

I love how flexible and low profile these are, but these run huge. I am between an 8.5 and a 9, and not only was the 9 too big, the 8.5 is too big. I am not sure what others are saying about these running small, because they are running a full size large for me. I don't think I'm going to take another chance on these, unfortunately.

Order your regular shoe size, don't size up. Narrow across forefoot. No arch support at all.

I've never had a pair of Asics I didn't love until these. I bought these for walking. I generally walk about an hour a day outside. These offer absolutely zero support. My feet hurt, my knees hurt, and my lower back hurt after walking for long periods of time in these. They are cute and very lightweight. I first of ordered a size 7 and they were too big. I re-ordered in my normal size 6 1/2 and the fit was much better. I wouldn't recommend these.

Didn't love this shoe. I bought these for Disney World but am returning them. No support, really. Also, I ordered a 1/2 size up, like recommended, and it's way too big. There is almost no cushion, either. I would not recommend these for anyone who needs to walk long distances. I wore them around the house for less than 10 mins and knew that I'd be in trouble if I attempted to wear these for a long period of time. They are super cute, though.

flat flat flat, almost like barefoot. Would be great for yoga but not if you need ankle support. Felt like second skin but too much for me

Fine if all you want is something super-light and easily packable for business trip work-outs but won't survive lots of use and not high quality materials.

These are rather flimsy, non-supportive shoes. I was looking for a low profile shoe, which these are, but they are not sturdy. The sole is too flexible and the top of the shoe is too thin. I'm making my return today.

I'm sending these shoes back. Unless I missed it I wasn't aware that the tongue is sewn to the shoe so you really can't tighten the shoe or loosen it. I had to shove my food in - I'm usually between a 6.5 and a 7 and the 7 was really hard to get on. Cute shoe, but not a smart design.
