These shoes have been perfect so far - light running on trails and road (no more than 20 miles a week), not to mention three days at Disney World. They're cute in addition to being comfortable! I usually wear a half size up in ASICS and these have been fine but I probably could have stuck with my regular 8 instead of 8.5

I ordered this pair of shoes and a pair of Ryka's for comparison. For me, this pair was the obvious winner. The shoes are supportive and comfortable. They function well on the treadmill. My next test is a fitness class. Very please with my purchase.

Nice looking and super comfortable. The first thing I noticed was how cushy they felt. Looking forward to breaking them in.

These are the best running shoes ever! They have great arch support and they come in wide! I order these a half size bigger then what I wear and they fit perfectly!

With this shoe you get Saucony comfort at an affordable price, especially if it's on sale. This shoe is one of the most comfortable tennis shoes I've found in years. I'm disabled and foot comfort is vital to my ability to walk.

I love these shoes. They were comfortable right out of the box and the vibrant colors are really fun. They are a little smaller than size 11 sneakers I've had before, but I'm liking the snugger fit.

I bought these for my wife. She has a heel spur and these have helped with the pain. They are very comfortable. The shoes are somewhat narrow so if you have wide feet the laces may end up too short.

Super comfortable, feel great! I purchased 3 pair of similar asics a year ago for work. Purchased 3 this time. Perfect shoes for work. Avg 12-16000 steps a day

I walk at least 20 miles a week. I was able to wear them right out of the box with only a little break in time. My foot is well supported. True to size for me with just the right amount of arch support.

Feels true to size for me and is probably one of my favorite Asics shoe. I've done indoor exercise classes and have run outdoor obstacle course type activities and have felt very secure and confidant in these shoes. I do use different inserts, but feel that the style of the shoe really supports my feet and ankles. I have ordered (and sent back) some of the newer versions of this shoe due to them going a little more "streamline" with the design, but I like a more substantial shoe.

I bought my first pair of Asics gel-venture 5 about a year ago from my local shoe shop. They're still in great shape, and love them so much, so I decided to buy a second pair. That way I can alternate between each shoe every other day...gives time for the cushion/support to bounce back.

I thought I ordered a 10 E. Just got new inserts from the Dr and they won't fit in these shoes..

Because of a wide toe bed, I've always worn Asic running shoes. I love that the wide width is available, but that the heal area is still snug. They are also durable - my previous pair lasted almost 2 years with regular workouts (3-4 times a week). I'd highly recommend these shoes.

Asics are my favorite brand for my high arch, narrow foot, and sore heels. I love the comfort and style of these and trust this brand to take care of my foot health. The tread on them is great and they fit true to size. Highly recommend.

I absolutely love these shoes! I work as a Nurse Extern at the hospital while I'm in nursing school and 12 hour shifts suck! I take an average of 17,000 steps while I work and they are comfortable. There is some pressure on my heal at the end of the day but after working that long, your feet will hurt no matter the shoe! FYI: I usually wear a 9 in boots and a 9 1/2-10 in sneakers and I got these in a 10
