Love these shoes. Having a large wide foot its almost impossible to find stylish shoes in a variety of colors. I love the way asics fit my feet and provide good support

This is my third pair of Asics Gel, and I love them. I have a wide food, and ordered the 7.5 D, and it fits perfectly. For me, it's true to size - that's what I wear normally. I can't say how this shoe is for running, since I'm not a runner, but I do wear it for walking, and it's great. I have had 2 ankle surgeries, and need the additional ankle support that a higher running shoe offers over a low walking shoe. These are light and comfortable, and offer great arch support. I don't need a lot of it, so I don't feel comfortable saying it provides excellent arch support if someone needs that medically, but it does offer more than a lot of others I've tried.

I am an Asics addict and these shoes are awesome!! I wear them for indoor workouts and love them. I also have other Asics for tennis and outdoor walking.

These sneakers are so comfy. I wear them to work & then again after work daily. I'm on my fourth pair. It's like walking on air.

I needed a new pair of shoes for the summer and these fit the bill perfectly. They fit just as reported and are light and airy for our hot summers here in Georgia. I love the bright color and style of the shoe. The gel gives me an all day wear comfort for outdoor activities. Zappos has a next day delivery included in the price, guaranteed satisfaction or send it back free so all that is too good to pass up.

A comfortable, supportive shoe with good cushioning that doesn't push my foot to the inside or outside. I ordered an 8 W. My foot is generally a 7 1/2-8 W. The 8 felt like the correct length and had good room in the toe box. The 7 1/2 probably would have been too short.

These are great shoes. I have a wide foot, but I never need to order wide with Asics. I wear a 10 dress shoe, but I always wear an 11 in running shoes.

The ad says Asics+you= L.O.V.E. and that is totally true with this shoe. It was comfortable right out of the box. Wide enough for my foot, and my balance loved being in this shoe. Makes me feel like I'm walking on a cloud, but one with enough support to get everything done for the day. This one is a keeper!

I love my Asics. I have always worn Asics sneakers however after I had foot surgery they were a little tight in the toe area. I ordered these in the same size only wide instead of regular width and they fit perfectly and gave me that little bit of extra room I needed.

These sneakers are so comfortable! I have found that asics run a little narrow in the toe area, so I ordered in a wide width and they are perfect.

Attractive, moderately priced, good construction for this level of athletic shoe. I would not recommend this shoe for high impact activities but works fine for everyday activities that require lots of standing.

I love Asics to run in. I purchased this pair after taking a break from running. I used them today and they were very comfortable and offered lots of support. This pair seemed to run just a little bit longer than the last pair I had. I ordered the wide width, and it feels fine. Not too roomy though. I think the regular width would be too narrow for me.

Very comfortable shoe right out of the box. I ordered a half size larger, as I always do with Asics Gel. I tried numerous versions of this shoe (thank you, Zappos). This shoe seems to fit more like the old Asics shoes did--wider across the toe box.

Love this shoe! I have worn Asics for years for power walking and step classes. I have wide feet as well as a bunion on my left foot. I had surgery a few years ago to correct a bunion on my right foot. I wear a 7.5 Wide, and they are true to size. These shoes are very cushiony and the toe box is wide enough for me. They are also very supportive.

Looks great and is very comfortable-very good firm support and cushioning, not that feeling of running on soft foam many running shoes have. Love them , already bought back up pair,

I'm an ER RN so I'm constantly on my feet for 8-12hr shifts. Asics have never failed me and these are no different. Very true to size, I ordered a size up just to make sure my wide feet would have enough room and they fit perfectly. I highly recommend these to all my nurse-sisters out there!

These were a bit too narrow for my average-width foot. I ordered a half size larger than usual, and they were still too narrow. The cushioning felt great though.

I like everything about these shoes. I walk about 4 miles each morning, and these keep me comfortable. The color is not too loud, one of my biggest complaints with shoes lately!
