Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Flux 2

I am a life-long, vigorous exerciser. Have worn ASICS for a number of years. The GEL-Flux 2 are the very BEST in terms of value, fit & comfort that I've ever worn. VERY PLEASED with them!

I bought this shoe for walking. I do a moderate speed walking and this shoe is great! Light weight and supportive.

Great shoe! The more I wear them, the more I love them. I got accustomed to wearing my Brooks Ghost 7, and I initially planned on getting the Brooks Ghost 8; however, I wasn't a fan of the way it looked. I went out on a limb and decided to go with an Asics shoe. Awesome decision! The shoe looks good and feels good when I'm running or simply just out and about.

These are awesome shoes for the price! I run 10-20 miles per week and only wear Asics. I must order wide for my bunions and I absolutely loved the Gel-Cumulus 15; however was disappointed in the Gel-Cumulus 16 and even more so the Gel-Cumulus 17. These are much more similar to the Gel-Cumulus 15 that I loved, and cheaper!

I have very difficult feet. I under pronate, my arches are painfully high, pressure on the ball of my foot is always there. I've worn some rendition of ASICS Cumulus Gels for years, but I hate that just when one really works for me, they switch it up on me. So anyway, I needed a new pair of shoes for walking. I walk about 15 miles per week on gravelly, country roads. I was having I always know when it's time for new shoes--my feet start to ache. This time though, my left achilles was super sore, and I had to walk less because my poor feet just ached. Then these babies arrived. I did some research and these shoes were recommended for troublesome feet like mine. First day--achilles pain gone. Period. I did Not expect that. Details: My usual 8.5W fits perfectly. Toe box is nice and roomy. Laces are long enough to tie a bow (high arches need longer laces). Less expensive than other ASICS I've worn.

I am about 100 lbs overweight and have issues with pain in the sides and back of my heel. It's benched me from working out for over a year. I tried these shoes on and I am amazed at how easily I can move with minimal pain. It feels great! I recommend. I'm going to be able to get back into running. My only wish is I could have a better style.

A few reviewers compared this to the Cumulus 15 so I thought I'd try them. I put them next to my Cumulus 15 pair and these are a solid 1/2 or more shorter and slightly narrower. I put them on anyway and they felt small and had very little cushion. Very disappointed with Asics summer designs. They seemed to have changed their sizing and/or design to be smaller in the toe box.

Just got them and only worn a couple of times, but fit nicely, have good arch support and cushioning.

These shoes are very comfortable. My feet hurt a lot and it's hard to find a cute comfortable shoe. Several shoes that I try feel flat with no cushion, but not these! Very happy with these shoes so far.

I ordered multiple pairs of shoes to try on, and this pair felt like it allowed my foot to be in the most natural position (not under- or over-pronating). In addition, it gave me the best arch support. I ordered 1/2 size up from my street shoe size as I usually do for running shoes, and they fit well, with plenty of room for my toes. I have only run in them once, and they felt good.

I've always heard good things about Asics, but have remained loyal to Brooks for running shoes. I decided to try them and I'm glad I did! Not only are they about half the price of Brooks sneakers, they are just as comfortable! They fit my narrow, high arch foot very well! So glad I took the plunge!

Great shoes. I ordered 1/2 size up to give my toes my room and that seems to work well. Great support. I wish I could purchase in other colors, but my size is not available.

Great fit. Had to wear thicker then normal socks though. Could not have taken a smaller size. True to size and I only wear Asics.

These are ELECTRIC blue. Bright ad super cute. I find these very comfortable and with cousin for my plantar fascia. Recommend.

I love these shoes so much I just ordered my second pair. I bought my first pair five months ago and have been running in them since. It was such a relief to finally find the right pair of running shoes. They were a touch snug right out of the box, but after only two runs they broke in and were perfect. I typically run up 16 miles a week and so far there is very little wear on the sole of the shoe. I should mention that I have a normal arch; I don’t pronate at all when I run, and I’m a midsole striker, so these shoes were a perfect match for my running style. When I run outdoors it is typically on sidewalks or on the street, and these shoes do a good job of minimizing the impact of running on hard surfaces. I have yet to experience any calf or shin pain. They also do a good job of keeping my feet dry and letting them breathe.

I typically only wear Asics because they fit me the best. I have high arches and these shoes fit true to size in a 13M and provide good support. I have only has them a few weeks but they feel like the most comfortable and supportive pair I've worn.

Thank you Zappos for your excellent customer service. I have an high instep and arch. I also underpronate. The Gel-Flux 2 is great fit for me. love the lively colors.

I love the color and feel of Asics Gel-Flux 2! Zappos you reign in service and price! Keep up the good work.

I'm 5'9" and wear a 10 to a 10.5 in most shoes.. they don't sell 10.5 in stores so if they are not fitting completely at a 10 which is unusual, I'll go on Zappos to order them. Thank you Zappos for that! But for my running shoes I have to go a half a size up no matter what!. That being said I have just recently realized my old shoes were not working for me. I through my back out and have been extremely tight in back of my left hip. Then noticed my calf tightening up and what feels like planter fantasias which all seems related.. Decided I need to get some new shoes pronto and go to my chiropractor... Asics are what my research lead me to for new shoes. So at a store near me I tried on a couple pairs of the Asics-gel (possibly the Exalts and Nimbus 17), Exalts fit perfect wouldn't have had to size up at all the 10 fit like a 10.5, but I thought the arch support wasn't there. I do cross training with med-average running. If I ran more than that, I would have gone with the nimbus 17, loved these shoes would have had to get a 10.5 in these! To expensive but would have been worth it if I ran more.. So The Gel Flux 2's are what I went with so far so good not saying it's cured all my ailment but I feel like I'm on the mend and I feel like these shoes are a good fit, and true to size width and moderate arch support. I have high arches so that may not be accurate for the average person. Hope this a helps!

Great shoe! Love Asics I think they are the best running shoe out there! Love shopping on Zappos, always fast delivery!

These shoes are well made and felt absolutely right as soon as I put them on. The heel support is excellent. I also like that the shoelaces are long enough to double-tie.

For insertional Achilles tendonitis, my doctor told me I need to wear much better athletic shoes - with a larger heel-to-toe drop, better arch support, as well as support for under-pronation. I ordered and tried on several pairs of Asics and Brooks - this pair was the most comfortable and fit my wide, square-toed feet the best. The heel is built out on the outside to discourage roll-out, the cushioning is very good and firm (it can't be too soft or it negates the drop), and I will likely order a second pair soon. The only minus I would give it is that the colors are so wild - would be nice to have the option of a plain black or white pair (in my size that is) when I don't want to look like a circus rolling into town! But I have owned other Asics and I think they are definitely well made, comfortable shoes, and certainly a good deal compared to other brands.

I love these shoes. They provide just the right amount of support but have nice cushioning for a very comfortable fit. The width is not too tight, and I love the colors.

I purchased these shoes for my mother who has issues with her feet due to arthritis. They provide good support and cushioning.

This is my third pair of Gel Flux and they are a great value for the price. fit true to size and are very comfortable, I wear them for all my workouts, including running and Insanity, they work great!
