They are the best sneaker for my feet, I tried others but I always comeback for the Gel-Contend 4.

I have tried many different brands of exercise shoe, and have found that Asics are the best fit. I bought this particular model a few months ago, because the price was very good and I liked the colors that were available. Because the price is very reasonable, I decided to buy another pair in a different color, which I am very pleased with. I wear these shoes a lot, because they are so comfortable, and am tempted to buy another pair in a different color.

I like the springy feel the "Amplifoam" inserts give. I have problem feet and these feel pretty good, right out of the box.

I had read several reviews saying that this show ran small, but that has not been my experience. I usually wear a 5.5; I ordered a 5.5 and it fits perfectly. Very comfortable sneaker in a variety of colors.

I have been buying ASICS shoes for years. Always the same size, 7.5M. I bought this shoe in the summer and it felt ok when I first put them on, but it felt a little short on my toes. I thought I just needed to wait a couple of days to break them in. Months later I still feel my toes are squished at the top. I re-ordered the same shoe (I love the cushion, arch support and color) in a half size bigger, 8M and it feels perfect!

These are awesome sneakers, but like others, they do run a half size small, so order then a half size larger than what you would normally wear.

Like all Asics, these run a bit small, so I suggest ordering a half size larger and they will fit perfectly.

These shoes tend to run a little smaller than your regular size, so I suggest buying a half size larger and then they fit perfectly.

Just bought my second pair of these shoes. I love them and walked nearly 6 miles right out of the box without any issues. I bought 1/2 size larger than normal and fit perfectly. Love the mesh which lets feet breathe and keeps shoe from feeling heavy. And, these are $10 cheaper on Zappos than at the store!

I read with great interest all the reviews that made a case for different versions of this shoe--the 4, 5, or 6. For my somewhat wide feet, the 4 was the perfect way to go. I tried on both the 5 and the 6, but for me the fit on those two wasn't as good as the 4. The fit was really perfect and totally comfortable. I need a good shoe for my walking on the treadmill. I'm not doing heavy duty running or anything--just a good solid walk. So what I need more than anything is a totally comfortable shoe that doesn't grab my attention in any way so I can just focus on feeling good on the treadmill and keep an eye on my form. This shoe is totally comfortable, fits like a glove, doesn't bind or rub in any way, and feels fairly light. In other words the perfect walking show with just the right support, cushioning (not too soft and not too hard), that makes my knees and ankles feel good.

Size and fit were great, I have feet issues and these shoes with little support work so much better than the 1,000.00 supports my podiatrist prescribed.

After reading the reviews so many people advised to order 1/2 size up which i did. Ordered an 8 1/2 and they were too big. Going to return and order my usual size 8.

I use these to walk/run on a treadmill and they work very well. Light and cushioned. I have slightly wide feet and medium widths can be too small at times. This Wide with is great, not too wide, so you don't feel like you are swimming in them. I am very pleased with my purchase. great on my feet.

Went with suggestions and order 1/2 size up - length is right. Heel is a bit wide, but laced using the loop in the last hole and that pulled in the heel so it doesn’t slip.

Really love these shoes and I can be tough to fit! A few notes to keep in mind as you order, I did order a half-size up from my typical size as they do run small. I wear a W and it was sufficient for me, however, they are on the narrower side. The heel banding is pretty high, although I haven't experienced any rubbing or blisters as a result. These were a win for me!

Asics are the best shoes! I wear these running errands and walking miles and miles. They are lightweight but still stable. Not the most stylish out there, but definitely better constructed than most. I love them!

These are my go to sneakers. I own 4 pair. I switch off everyday. They seem to help my back & knees. Can’t say everyone will feel the same about them but I keep coming back for different colors. Give them a try you can always return them if they don’t fit right. Zappos is a very good company to buy from.

I have worn ASICS for a few years and nothing else feels this good. I just wish there were plain white shoes!

I am new to Asics sneakers but I have a feeling these will not be my last pair. The comfort level is amazing for running, walking and circuits. I purchased these sneakers for my mom for Mother's day and she loves them too. Zappos is the only site that had the largest selection of sneakers and the free upgraded shipping and great service will keep me coming back to shop.
