Customer Reviews ASICS Gel-Venture® 5

These are my go to tennis shoes. Awesome and affordable. Great for a wide fit and if you pronate.

I've been wearing Asics for a long time now, and they always fit perfectly! I started wearing these trail shoes almost exclusively for my tennis shoes. Either working out at the gym or hiking, they are perfect! Also love the color of these!

I wear a size 7 shoe and have C/D width feet. These fit perfectly and felt great right away. I also have high arches, but even without putting my custom orthotics in, they felt supportive. I'll order this sneaker again!

My feet have been hurting me for two weeks. These are the only shoes that made them feel better! Excellent arch support. I usually get a size 8 but I bought a size 8.5 and I think that was smart. Wish they were a little more stylish, but at least my feet are not killing me. Price was pretty good, too.

Verdict is still out...wore them once indoors to see if I could get used to the right arch feeling so much higher than the left (obviously it's my foot, but never noticed such a discrepancy as with these shoes). Seemed to adjust so went on an hour long hike. Felt great. Went on a second hike and got a blister. Hoping it was due to sock change. Will try again. Super cool looking so I'm really wanting them to work!

This was my first purchase of this style in this brand. I love Ascis but since they have been running smaller I went up 1/2 size. They were too big. I had ordered the 11 as well and they fit better. I've always worn the Kayan by ASIC but needed a walking shoe. These are so much stiffer

LOVE this shoe! I have trouble finding shoes that fit, because my foot is wide and I pronate. The support is fantastic. This is a sturdy shoe and I feel well protected when I walk or run.

Bought these based on the great reviews and was not disappointed! They are comfortable right out of the box. I've worn many pairs of Asics over the years and these are one of my favorites. Great service from Zappos as always!

Super comfortable and looks amazing

I hardly had to break-in to these shoes. I put them on right before a Spartan Race and it helped me breeze past the tough terrain. Incredibly comfortable and the coloring of the shoe design was not too flashy, but still unique.

I'm an ER nurse and I just LOVE my Asics!! I have minimal back/feet/leg pain when I get a new pair. Plus all the fun colors let me have some personality in my plain scrubs. :)

I was looking for good solid everyday shoes and these worked great for that purpose.

cute and comfy except some weird inside bump that hits my toe joint.

Just wore these to the gym first time today. They were super cute, but more importantly, they supported my feet/ankles while I was lifting weights. Last year on a whim, I switched from New Balance to Asics and I can honestly say I don't miss NB at all.

I always buy Asics because they consistently fit and are durable. I wear them for walking and these are comfortable. They are a little stiff in the beginning but soften up as you wear them. I liked the blue color combo too.

These shoes are a great buy for the money!

Exactly what I ordered- fits great, fast shipping. I just love Zappos.

Bought as a gift for my sister. She loves them!!

This isn't the best ASIC shoe I have owned, but for the price, it is. I have owned other Asics but have spent at least twice the price. This shoe is moderately supportive in the arch area. The fit is excellent. I do a lot of running and am having no problems at all. I feel that this shoe may not last the six to twelve months that my other shoes normally do but for the price I paid, I don't care!

This is a great tennis shoe. Very comfortable and lightweight, and didn't need breaking in.

I wore a different Asics walking sneaker for several years, purchasing the same shoe every six months. They went up in price quite a bit so I looked at different shoes. Tried another brand and soon found I was having arch pain, so I returned to Asics and tried this reasonably priced shoe. I'm very happy with it so far. I wore through the right big toe area of my old sneakers in the old style, so I am hoping that this style with the little tab inset at the top of the foot, will change that, but it's still too early to tell.

Very comfortable and well made. Will buy again

These are really comfortable basic running/walking sneakers. I sometimes have trouble with my left big toe banging against the front of a sneaker but the Asics magically fit both my feet perfectly. I wear a size 9 in women's shoes and the size 9 in these work for me. I walk a few miles a day and these have worked out great for me.

These are my first pair of Asics and I LOVE them! Very comfortable and fit great.

Very comfortable shoe, with terrific support. As someone who struggles with plantar fasciitis, these were a godsend.
