Cute shoe but felt narrower than a medium width. My other Asics in the same size fit well (different trainers).

I love this shoe! Very comfortable, however it is a shoe to really only wear without socks, thus the reason I only gave it 4 stars. I can really only wear them a few months out of the year. Other than that very lightweight, comfortable and super stylish.

Love the over style of the shoe, super light and easy to wear. If you donwear with socks order a half size up.

I think these shoes run very small. My foot is actually 4 3/4 size so I wear a 5. the 5 and now 5 1/2 is still a bit too small. I would like to get a size 6. That hopefully will work just fine. So sorry.

I purchased this shoe to be used for a beginner level at-home workout (Focus T25). I've worn the shoe for one workout and it felt good. It moved well. My feet weren't particularly sweaty post workout. My feet didn't have any side-to-side movement or slipping and in all based off of one wear and workout, I like the shoe. With that being said, the shoe runs quite small. I am normally a size 10. I ordered a size 10.5 because I usually need more length in Asics brand shoes. In error I was sent a 10, tried it on in case fate would have it that a 10 fit however my feet were super scrunched, so when I called to request an exchange I requested an 11. As with most, one foot is just slightly longer than the other and that happens to be my right foot. My big toe nearly touches to the top of the shoe. If I were to let my toe nails grow long, the shoe wouldn't fit my right foot. The shoe in width does fit snug, like a sock. On first try-on I wore a pretty heavy sock. I could not fit my feet comfortably in the shoe with a sock. For reference I wear Nike brand socks that have heel and ball support. They are a rather thick sock. Because of the snug fit and impossibility of wearing my Nike socks and not owning a thinner sock, I opted to wear no socks and the shoes felt great. No rubbing that caused blistering and no slipping or movement from sweaty feet. I recommend buying a 1/2 size larger (but being prepared to exchange for a full size larger), either not wearing a sock or having a very thin sock on hand to wear (injini has great socks that are thin) and/or finally if choosing to go with no sock then buying sneaker balls to help with funk that will definitely arise because of no sock wearing. For now, after one use, I recommend the shoe. I will be sure to update this review in about one month.

These shoes are extremely comfortable. I wanted a lightweight shoe for the gym and everyday use. These will do it.
The black material is shiny, which I'm not crazy about. And the silver details look like they glow in the dark. But comfort wins over style.
I have narrow feet and these fit me just fine.

I loved the first model of the gel-fit sana, so i bought this 2nd version and loved it too. It's super light weight and is great for lifting weights and doing HIIT-style workouts. I love how it allows my feet to move naturally due to how flexible the shoe is. My fave detail about this shoe is the loop at the heel, which makes it so much easier for me to put on--slip foot in halfway and tug on loop to get rest of foot in. Most sneakers I see dont have this feature, or the loop is too small to hold on to so as I slip my foot in, I usually end up crushing the heel part of the shoe and it's extremely annoying to fumble around fixing it and it hurts my nails and fingers. I know the shoe isn't meant for running, but I also do 10-mile runs on pavement/sidewalks with no problems. I wish it were more durable though since the inside layer connecting the toe box enforcement to the rest of the fabric has ripped (after just a few months of wear, and even though the rest of my shoe is fine) and this highly affects the support of the shoe (IMO). The fabric also stretches out over time so the more I wear them (months and months...) the tighter I seem to have to lace them up for the proper support. I'd def recommend for comfort and style, but beware it's not the most durable shoe.

Great shoe to just walk around in and quite comfortable. Love that you don't wear socks with this since it's super hot in the summer and I don't have to worry about wearing sandals and getting my toes sunburned. Nice and squishy inside the shoe great for walking.

I'm usually an 8.5 and I tried both an 8.5 and a 9. I chose to keep the 8.5, though I almost feel an 8 would have been okay, too - the toe box is quite long. I have a wide forefoot are and have trouble finding shoes that are wide enough in the toe area but snug enough elsewhere. These fit the bill. I've started wearing them without socks because I found with socks, my feet were sliding around a bit during burpees and other similar exercises. I'm not sure I would repurchase them, though.

I don't use it for Cardio. I use it primarily to teach pound, because there isn't a lot jumping so this shoes are awesome to teach in them, because it doesn't feel Im wearing sneakers. Although I might recommend ordering a half size bigger, because Im usually a 7.5 and it was a little to tight, so next time I will order an 8.

Since this shoe runs half a size smaller, the front part fitted perfectly but my heel was coming out of the shoe while moving around. I am sad I had to return it, I really liked the shoe.

I love the look of these shoes and was really hopeful that I'd love them as much in person and while working out. Unfortunately, they are so incredibly uncomfortable on my feet.
I'm a size 10 and they fit perfectly in that regard, but they were so tight on my feet that I felt a ridiculous amount of pressure. And I don't even have large, wide, or fat feet. I have such "dainty" feet!!!
The laces constantly came undone and I'm not a fan of double-knotting.
I wish they'd worked for me. They look so great!

At the toe of the shoe the fabric connects with the rub so steeply you can see the bumps of my first couple toes pushing up bedraggled the fabric. Even if I went up a size I'm sure theyd still be pushing against the top of the shoe pretty hard. I like shoe otherwise, I just have big toes apparently.

I ordered the pink and really love the look of this shoe and it seemed very comfortable, however, it was really narrow. if you looked at my shoelaces, the part nearest my toes were normal looking but the higher up you looked, the wider it got where the top few eyelets were very close to the sides of my feet! I normally wear Nike's so not sure if the size/shape is different for Asics or just this particular style.

I think these shoes are really cute. However, they have no support at all. The arches of my feet were achy after waling around for 15 minutes in them. Sadly I have to send them back.

found these shoes to be difficult to put on due to the small opening for my feet. Would have been ok if size 5 or 6 perhaps.

These have good arch support, but there wasn't enough space for the height of my tow...my big tow nail was pressing up against the top of the shoe, even though they were the correct size (length).

Peculiar shoe! The tongue is sewed closed so you have to wiggle your foot into the enclosed space. Just putting these shoes on felt like a workout. With great sneakers, you feel like you could float along all day. Maybe it was the way you had to fight to put them on (like riding boots, if you are familiar with them) but the shoes never felt right after that awkward beginning. And why? What's the benefit? None of it made sense and these are going back.

This shoe designed horribly! The tongue is completely attached to the shoe, so the shoestrings are there for looks, and nothing else. I cannot even get my foot into the shoe to try it on.:(
