Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Contend 4

3rd pair of these shoes. Comfortable and true to size.

Although other review for 4E width said they run true to size, these shoes were way too narrow for my husband.

Just got these today in the mail (13 4E). The toe box is a little short for the size. The look is a little too plastic, for me, but my husband liked them. They are going back for a bigger size. I am worried about going up to a 14??.

Ran a bit small, had to return for 1/2 size up. Toe box a bit tight, but better after a few wears. They are comfortable with modest arch support. I'm not a runner, but these will make really good walking shoes and knock-around shoes.

I am a 53 year old, overweight man with very wide and difficult to fit feet. I've grown tired of wearing only New Balance shoes, so decided to try the Asics when I saw they also came in wide sizes. When the shoes came I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the materials and build considering their inexpensive price. I've been wearing them for about a week now, and can say that they have exceeded my expectations. If you are used to wearing New Balance, though, these definitely are not as wide as the 4E version of that brand. They also seem a bit smaller, maybe a half-size or so, than the New Balance brand. Bottom line, I will definitely be purchasing Ascis again, but will bump up the size a bit.

Not a big fan of this shoe. Not very comfortable. Decent functionality.

shoes are what I wanted although a bit too small. I usually wear a similar style and was surprised to try them this time.

I have worn these shoes for a week, waiting for them to break in. I am not sure if there is a seam or something but my right foot hurts so much when I wear them.... that I simply can't wear them anymore... sad, because they were really comfortable for a few days.

I purchased a full size larger than I would normally wear because I planned to put insoles in them on top of the insoles that came in the shoe. Even after trimming the insoles a bit these shoes pinch my toes slightly. I will just trim the shoe insole to create more room. Otherwise, they are as expected.

Ok shoes to run in, a bit flat and it did not feel like there was enough cushion. Only worn 3-4 times.

Good quality at this price but they do definitely run narrow at the toe. I returned the first pair and Zappos worked with me well and sent a second in the dame size since the length is correct for my size. The first and second pair are a little tight at the toe (pinky toe). The second pair is a little better and I will keep them.

The shoe did run a bit small. I usually wear a 8 1/2 or a 9. Ultimately had to get the 9. Otherwise, it is an acceptable shoe and very basic. No big compliments or criticisms. I would say it is a safe choice and may be great for someone else!

Sort of an average shoe in the fit and the comfort level. It was a typical running shoe fit and performance. I average an 8 1/2 or a 9 usually. I got a 9 in order to have adequate toe space. No major complaints.

Unfortunately the height of the shoe at the ankle was too high and rubbed the bottom of my ankle uncomfortably. Otherwise they were nice, comfortable shoes.

I don't know about the comfort because I never wore them. The shoes were at least a half size too small. The width may have been too narrow as well, but since I never wore them tough to tell. I had high hopes since I have been searching for a good supportive shoe. I have been wearing Asics Neo-Gel Walker 4 for years, but they discontinued them for some reason.

Had to return them because the arch support was not enough for me. Very flat

The shoe was very stylish. I usually like Asics, but this shoe felt a bit narrow. I have wide feet and the 4E did not work for me.

Just was not as wide as I would have liked. Felt tight. I also ordered the Gel Venture 6, which was wide enough.

Tried two sizes, both way too narrow, had to return. Probably a women's model mislabeled as a men's.

I was hoping to give this shoe a good rating but I'm afraid I can not. The style is good,the width is good, but it's definitely a half to a full size too small.

After 50 miles use this is done and needs to be replased. And this was walking. The sole is wornout and step thrue. This was second pair of asics. And it will be the last.

Why doesn't Zappos take more control over their manufacturers? You guys used to sell true to size quality products. I have a pair of Brooks I purchased in 2006 that I use when I mow the lawn; there is no comparison in quality with 2006 VS 2019. You built a great name and then seemingly abandoned your customers. Unfortunately, It's not a new story. Come back to us Zappos.
