Customer Reviews ASICS Gel-Venture® 5

It's a great looking shoe without the clunky appearance and hardware of other hiking shoes I've tried. Unfortunately, due to supinating, I felt the lateral part of the shoe digging in . . . unlikely to soften or break down. Sadly, I had to return it.

I love these shoes. They are perfect for running around all day I wear orthopedic inserts and they fit perfect.

I ordered 1/2 size up based on the reviews. They fit really well. The first time I wore them I went on a 3 1/2 mile walk. Very comfortable from the first walk. I like the color. It's not too bright, but I'm kind of tired of grey and white. I have fairly narrow feet and these work well for me.

My third pair of these shoes, love them, comfort and support.

I have worn Asics for several years, both the Gel-style and for golf. They always fit well and have great support. I always look for the. The toebox is perfect for me.

This came today and I am relieved that it fits perfectly! I am usually a size 7 athletic (size 6.5 dress) but with a wide foot. So going up to 7.5 will usually compensate for the wide width. However, with ASCIS I also have to get the wide width (plus 1/2 larger).

I've been purchasing Asics for my wife for years. She says they are the most comfortable shoes she wears!! She works as nurse and is on her feet long hours. She has a high arch and says these give excellent arch support and are true to size. They run narrow but she has narrow feet. As always Zappos is a good value and shipping is unbeatable!

Got these for my sister and she loved them. Very comfortable!

I love ASICS! I have a wide foot which makes it hard to find shoes. ASICS are the only brand I've found that are wide enough!

Great shoe for strength training, interval training, and circuit training. Since I'm not a runner, I can't comment on whether they are a good running shoe. I have worn Asics in the past but these are the best ones yet. Also tried the Sonoma but returned it because it was a bit too roomy.

I bought these for my daughter and she loves them!! She's a college student, so they get a real workout and she keeps mentioning how comfortable they are. I have an older pair that I wear often, and I have nothing but good things to say about Asics!

Great, comfortable sneaker.

Great sneaker. Love the colors.

Great sneaker. Cool colors.

Excellent shoe. Size is true. Nice and sturdy. Definitely a great purchase and I will buy these again.

This is my second pair of Asics. They have great support and quite a bit of cushion. I broke these in while doing some volunteer work (construction) and my feet never hurt at the end of the day. As always, Zappos Service is top notch and I received them quickly.

I love these running shoes! The level of support and comfort are excellent - not to mention the affordable price. I hate forking over hundreds of dollars for running shoes every couple of months and for someone who runs 30-40 miles a week, it can get expensive. Definitely will look at getting these again the next time I need new running shoes.

Comfortable right out of the box!

This is about my fourth pair of Asics and I love them! They are comfortable right from the start, no break in period. I am not a runner but I do walk at least miles a day and never have an problems. I also like the variety of colors

This shoe is very supportive. I have plantar fasciitis, and this really helps with lifting my heel somewhat. Very stable sides which is needed for my ankle support.

I bought a pair of these they are the most comfortable sneakers I have worn in a while!!! Love them!!!!!!

Love these shoes, my 3rd pair!

I wore these right out of the box on a long trip to San Francisco. They were really comfortable and kept me going for many a mile. I do add custom arch supports.
