Customer Reviews ASICS Gel-Venture® 5

This is a decent, cost effective solution for generally milling about, sitting at a computer, working in a gym, walking the dog, etc. These are all the things I've done in them successfully. I wouldn't run in them but they are reasonable shoes for everyday life without looking like a doofus.

These are my son's go-to shoes. He uses them for daily wear, and they hold up well.

Bought this pair for a friend who's a serial shoe monogamist. Since he wears the same pair of shoes everyday, he can be considered as a true tester of shoe longevity. So far the shoes wear well and my friend considers them truly comfortable and befitting of his subdued style (silver/light gray/royal blue config).

Great shoe. Zappos always has plenty of options!

I was told by a doctor to change shoes and they mentioned the Gel series as a good place to start. They feel great and are aiding in the healing of my foot. I highly recommend them for the heal cushioning. My last Zappos was in 2013 and IMHO I waited way to long. :)

These are true to fit and extremely comfortable. I was pleasantly surprised to find them completely comfortable to wear right out of the box! These may be the most comfortable Asics I've ever bought. I am extremely happy with the purchase.

I'm using these shoes at the gym for now but plan to use them on trails a well. Looks nice. Probably my new go to sport shoes.

I bought these shoes for my husband so he can start walking with me. He said he loves the spring in the shoes and they fit perfectly.

I feel like I'm walking on a comfty bed made of clouds =)

Great price! Great fit! Comfy right out of the box!

Very good shoe for the price. Light weight. I have broken both my feet within the last year and these shoes feel good.

Iordered these for hubby. He has been wearing this exact shoe for the past year and loved them so much I ordered him another pair. He finds them to be perfect for all the things He does all day. Very comfortable, his go to shoe for everyday.

Great color and perfect fit! Very comfortable too.

great all around shoe, wear mostly just for around town but holds up well to the occasional run

Great comfortable shoe that looks good as well. He normally wears a 9 1/2 but had to exchange up to a 10 1/2.

My husband really likes these shoes, so I bought my brother a pair as a gift. My brother said they are the most comfortable sneakers he's ever owned, and couldn't stop thanking me for introducing him to this brand and style of sneaker.

Good quality, long lasting, comfortable and reasonably priced.

Comfortable and great for my exercise and everyday lifestyle

Comfortable and durable. Easily washed-great value

Good look, good feel

These are the most comfortable shoes I personally have ever bought.

Bought these for my son who has a wide foot. So we got Wide. It's always tough to find shoes that work just right for him. We were going with less expensive models for awhile but they wore out so soon. These are sturdy and will last - as least as long as he fits in it... which may not be too long given he's 12. He loves them and says they are very comfortable and he wears them everyday for school and just hanging out. I will purchase this again as he grows.

These shoes are very comfortable. After hurting my foot, I needed something I could wear all the time that wouldn't be too constraining. While I got them mostly for their cushioning, they do offer a bit more stability as well. I also like the style of them, and have found that I like wearing them casually as well.

This is my 5th pair different style I have really bad heel spurs but having heel issues it make it the best for me support wise. I highly recommend it.

I bought these for my 11 year old son, who has huge feet for a kid that age. We ordered about seven pairs of shoes - different brands and sizes, and this is the ONE he chose to keep. That says a lot, because he complains about shoes constantly, and only wanted to keep wearing his abhorrently stinky old pair that needed to go in the trash months ago. He appears to like these shoes, and his shin pain has gone away since wearing them.
