I have wide feet and have found over the years that Asics 4E shoes fit me best. I find this to be very comfortable with a lot of cushion. I am not a runner, but chose this model because it's a bit more versatile than a tru running shoe. I do normally wear a size 11, but know with Asics 4E I have to go a half size larger. I use a runner's knot to eliminate any heal slippage.

This is a great pair of shoes. ASICS shoes have always been comfortable to me and some of my favorite shoes.

My husband loves these sneakers, we order two pair at a time. He needs a good arch support and these provide that support. They do seem to last and my husband is hard on sneakers.

Comfortable and a durable shoe. I wear them as my primary shoe (including work where I stand and walk often). I purchased size 12 4E (extra wide) and it fits well. Note, they work well for folks with hammer toe as well with the wide toe box and mesh. Overall a good all around shoe.

Asics Gel-Venture 6 are my favorite shoes. I wear size 12 4E shoes and often shoes from other makers simply are not wide enough. This shoe has a wide toe box and feel roomy to me. They are offered in lots of different color schemes and Zappos seems to cycle through them so whenever I buy new ones, even though I'm just getting the same shoe again, it looks like a new shoe. I walk a few miles to work everyday and these get the job done on the city streets.

Fit great. Made well. Provide good support. I am an underpronator and these shoes help provide the support my ankles need so I am less likely to twist them. This is the second pair of these I have ordered.

Husband needs a 12 1/2 wide. ASICS is perfect! True to size. Comfortable for high instep. Nice arch support. Great for everyday wear and long walks. Highly recommend.

I have a 13AAAA foot with high arches. I have to wear a hard arch support in every pair of shoes I own. My biggest problem when buying a shoe for walking is usually looseness in the heel, with a vertical motion that can quickly wear out the inside of the shoe behind the heel.
Even with the liner and my arch supports in, these are plenty tight in the heel. They are also pretty comfortable right out of the box with no much of a break-in period needed. I got size 12.5 and they are a little tough to put on, but that will become easier over time. I recommend these!

Not a very rugged shoe. I wear a 4E and I felt like I was going roll out of them.

Great shoe for the price, I’m 6’5” 270 so they don’t last but 4-6 months. True size 15 from ASICS. Size 15 in Nike are too small for reference.

Love these shoes. I was looking for an affordable and well built shoe for recreational running and activity. The colors look nice enough to wear with jeans at work and I love the comfort. They are great for moderate running. I run about 3-4 miles per day.

Overall a very good shoe, fits great, feels good, a little stiffer sole than typical running shoes (which was what I was looking for). I've only had them a short time, but so far so good. Excellent Zappo's sevice.

I use these fantastic shoes for trail and sidewalk running. I’ve worn other brands but I find the gel cushioning superior for shock absorption .

Thought because of the wide width I would need a 11.5. Shoe runs small as normally I am an 11. Very much like the shoe and have ordered a half size larger - a 12. Am very very pleased with Zappo's service and return policy. Will be ordering often since I do most shopping online.

I have 124E feet. Basically Asics and NB are my only choices. I am replacing an identical pair that is 3 years old.

Originally got the M width, sent back for the 4E. These fit perfect. I wear a lot of Keens and wider shoes. The M width was a bit narrow.

Purchased for my son. He really likes the shoe for everyday use. Light weight and says the heal is comfortable. Would purchase again.

This is my fourth pair of this style. Although I replace their insoles I do that with all shoes. Really like the style and overall comfort of the shoes.

My last pair of running shoes were the Venture 5. The Venture 6 fit and look better than their predecessors.
