I purchased these shoes for my husband. He's very picky & is on his feet so much that he needed a comfortable walking shoe. These fit the bill! They fit true to size with great arch support. Durable, as he's hard on his shoes & they've lasted. He'd buy 'em again & again! Asics makes a quality shoe & Zappos is the BEST online company to buy from! :*)

Really pleased with these. Got the 4E which are nice and wide. Very good cushioning, super comfortable shoes. Not quite as breathable as some others I've had but good enough. This is my second pair of Asics, they hold up much, much better than New Balance for me. Very well made shoes, I am pleased.

I bought these without even trying a similar pair on. They are great! They have a lot of heal cushion which will be great for running since I run heal to toe.

Bought these cross training sneakers for my son! We tried several styles before he finally gave these an A+. Ascis never fails.
Thank you Zappos for being so patient as we returned several pairs of sneakers and for carrying a large selection of 7 M size sneakers for men.

This is my second pair of Gel-Venture sneakers. They're quite comfortable and relatively inexpensive. I don't run and really only need sneakers for stair-mastering, mowing the grass, and casual wear. These are perfect for all of the above.

I bought these to replace an old pair of Asics that I've worn for the past 3 years. I don't run but it do work out in them 3 days a week and also use them for casual wear about 3 tImes a week. I also ordered another brand just to compare but there was no contest. The Asics look better and feel better. I wore them right out of the box.

My whole family wears ASICS. We used to be loyal New Balance & Nike wearers, until we tried ASICS. They have something for all of us. The Gel-Venture is my husbands go-to gym shoe for everyday work. He has to be comfortable on his feet and support his knees. No break in period either.

These shoes fit well and are comfortable for my work outs. I have only had them a few days, so I cannot comment on their durability at this time. I have had good experience with Asics and these appear to be as well crafted as the shoes I have previously owned.

First time using Zappos. Easy to navigate, shipping free and timely. Size was what I ordered and it was a perfect fit. Will be using Zappos again, soon.

I bought these for my husband since he had had these shoes in the past and loved them. These were perfect, in fact I'm going to order another pair for while they're still available.

Great shoes & even better service. Thank you Zappos! The first shoes I got were too small, so they sent me another pair even before I had sent the ill fitting shoes back. Signed, Customer for life.

I didn't think I was ever going to find another affordable sneaker for my fat feet besides the Nike Air Monarch. Tried several prominent brands allegedly for wide feet but no way - until now. These things are deliciously cozy for my wide feet. I would like them to be a tad more cushioned but still, my feet haven't breathed in a sneaker since I can remember until these came along. I'll take one of each color please.

After returning a similar model Asics that had a foot bed defect I tried these because of the favorable reviews. A very comfortable shoe, a slight bit shorter in length than my Asics Kayanos, but not enough for me to go to a larger size. Excellent heel cushioning, the forefoot cushioning was noticeably less than my Kayanos, but these didn't cost as much. I got them for an everyday walking around shoe and they feel like they'll work just fine for that. If they last a reasonable length of time, I'll consider them money well spent.

I purchased these for my husband. He liked them in the box and loved them on. He is just getting past plantar fasciitis and needed something with support. He has wide feet, with a high instep and is fairly hard to fit. These filled the bill.
