Wanted to love this sneaker but somethings not quite right. I was looking for a walking she for an upcoming vacation but the arch seems placed too far back in the shoe. Its just off. I wear 9.5 or 10, the 10 fit length and width, just the arch was off. They are super cute,

Have had several pairs of ASICS over the years.They're my "go to" brand for shoes for long/fast walks. Always need 1/2 size larger than my usual shoe size. Tried these as well as ASICS Gel-Exalt 3. I felt the additional padding/support of the Exalt 3 was worth the slight extra weight of the shoe. So returning the YUI and keeping the Exalt 3.

Overall the shoe fits and wears great. My major gripe is that the tongue doesn't feel like is wide enough to close the gap on top of the shoe. Not really sure what's going on there...

So, my issue with this shoe was only one thing. The lace up mechanics don't stay tight. The body of the shoe is mostly mesh but i think that wing strap lacing is the issue that i had most. They are super cute and stylish for just running or jogging, but not so good for weights or strength training where you need full support.

Has worked great so far for strength and plyometric training. Lightweight and breathable. However, I will have to get some orthotics due to the lack of arch support.

I will be exchanging this for a wide width although I normally wear a medium width. Asics shoes just seem more narrow to me than the Brooks shoes that I am acustomed to wearing.

This shoe is ideal for walking and wearing for daily use but not for running or CrossFit type exercises.

I am continually looking to replace my most favorite running shoe ever, the Asics Gel Fit Tempo 2 so decided to try these. Super comfortable and roomy, would be a great fit if your feet are wide. I love Asics and have worn through many shoe soles from running. I would have kept these if I could have tightened the laces- they are elastic through elastic and although great for just slipping on, and look fashionable and modern, they just didn't feel secure enough for me to trail run in.

I wanted to love these because the style is exactly what I was looking for. However they were very narrow. The tongue is strange and not connected like most shoes and even when I laced up, there was this awkward gap. So if you have wide feet, I do not recommend. I need something with a little more support for my circuit training classes.

Shoes are very lightweight and look nice but have essentially no padding or support. All day wear results in back pain. I have ballet flats that provide more support. Overall this is a shoe where in making it light they made it less functional. Fine if you want something cute and you don't ever have to stand or walk more than an hour at a time or a few hours a day.

This was a really cute shoe and quite comfortable too. I bought a half size bigger and it fit perfect. Only problem was that the sole had zero traction...very slick. I work in a spa where the floor is often wet so these shoes would've been an accident waiting to happen. Too bad, I really liked the style and comfort :(

I liked the look and feel of this shoe for the most part, but the tongue was too narrow for my high arches and it gapped quite a bit so I ended up returning it.

These are very comfortable but the laces are way too long and they look like saddle shoes to me and I just can't get over how strange they look. I ordered the grey, orange and white ones. Returning.

I do intense plyometrics thrice a week and I've been using these shoes for almost a month now. They're really light shoes but do not provide as much arch support as I had hoped. Also, there doesn't seem to be much traction on the frontmost part of the sole. I'm not totally displeased with them but I am looking to buy some insoles to try to remedy the arch support issue.

I am an Asics, but these are just okay. When I am on my feet all day, or take a long walk at the end of the day, I am lacking the typical support I get from Gels. I am very glad that I had a $30 discount because they are definitely not worth $90. Also, they make my feet feel hot during extended wear.

I asked for these sneakers as a Christmas gift. I always buy Asics training sneakers for working out in. Honestly, I'm not sure how they rated so high?!?! In my opinion they are uncomfortable and have no support. My feet hurt after working out. I do a lot of HIIT workouts for reference. Maybe it's just my feet? It stinks because I really loved the look of these. I stand by the Gel-Fit Sana 100% and will be ordering them again today.

Factory workers do not buy! I bought these because everyone raves over ASICS. How they are the best shoe for standing all day on concrete. Being 23, rainbow colored shoes arent my favorite thing. So I picked these because they were subtle. They are a VERY cute shoe. But that, and the reasonable price is all they have going for them. I felt like I stood barefoot on concrete for 12 hours. All in all, cute shoe just not for standing.

The shoes were very uncomfortable. Too small for the same size I wear. The support was too stiff. Was just an overall bad quality shoes. Disappointed. Will ship both pairs back. I have purchased a pair before and loved it.

I wore these on a long walk one day. I am sending them back because I had to stop numerous times to untie and retie them because they were hurting my feet so badly. My feet were going numb. I have never had this problem with shoes before. I usually love Asics, but this particular shoe seems to put pressure in odd places. Initially,? they were incredibly comfortable, but I was unable to tie them in a way that they would not cause my feet to go numb.
