I've had this pair for 6 weeks for daily two mile nature walks. They are light and have good stability while also giving my wide feet enough room (11.5 / wide). Excellent value!

I have very wide feet and ordered the extra wide in my usual shoe size. They are actually wide (unlike other wide shoes I’ve bought) and very comfortable. Highly recommend.

Product arrived promptly. Fit was excellent no need for break in period either. Great traction on off road surfaces. Cannot fail with Asics products.

This is my third pair of these because they are awesome. I've had plantar faciatis in the past and ASICs in general have cured me of that. The GEL Venture 6 feels a bit stiff when you first get them but after wearing them in for a few hours they can't be beat. Comfortable, supportive, and durable. These definitely outlast some of the more expensive ASICs that I've bought in the past. The value is outstanding. I'm not one for neon and flash so I wish they'd make a few more subdued, yet attractive color options for these as I would buy one or two pairs of each. My foot is extremely wide so I get the 4E and go .5 to 1 size longer from normal as they do tend to run slightly shorter than expected. I use them for street shoes and for weight and treadmill workouts. Serious distance runners should probably look elsewhere for something just a hair lighter even though these are really outstanding. Hope they don't change them up much when the newer version comes out and I'll keep buying these forever. Love them.

Nice snickers. These are more rounded in the front than other models, thus give more room for toes.
I did not noticed that these are for underprone walkers, so needed to return and replace with another model. Otherwise great shoes. I got extra wide 4E.

So disappointed! This shoe had great reviews, the price was ridiculously affordable and while I usually prefer a plainer looking shoe, the grey I chose is gorgeous. Sadly, I bought it for comfort and support. It was a half+ size larger which was fine but it was so narrow it hurt. Had to return it with regret. I hope you have better luck with this beautiful shoe.

Second or third time around for these same sneaks. Not flashy but more important they’re comfortable. Waiting for more colors to come available. Oh. And the price is right.

I've owed a dozen pair of Asics, this is the first pair that has let me down. The sizing is too big, and the padding feels minumal. These are very low cost, and they feel made that way. I'm hoping this pair was just an exception to thier usually good shoes.

I have been purchasing ASICS Gel shoes for years now and they are the only brand I or my wife Nancy buy. The construction and style are top notch and they wear very well usually wanting a change is color or model before the shoes have reached their service life. The single most appreciated feature of ASICS for me is their
CONSISTENCY in sizing! I order the shoes from ZAPPOS and know they will fit exactly like the pairs before and those I order the next time. ZAPPOS have great competitive pricing, free delivery for my order and great turn around time from order to delivery. OUT with the old, IN with the new??

My shoes arrived a day earlier than was initially thought and fit just right. Very comfortable and the colors and style was very true to what was pictured on the website. I would definitely use Zappos again in the future for my next purchase.

Seems like a nice, budget running shoe. The sewing job on the seams appears to be well done. Shoes feel very light (in a good way). Nice oval shaped laces.

Within a year, the soles started separating. Not sure how long these shoes will last.

Looking for an under pronation shoe that is not as expensive as the Brooks Beast that I usually wear, 1/3 if the price! This one fits well, true to size. A little less weight to the shoe than the Brooks so I am hoping they work out for me. Time will tell.

These are perfect for me. I have extra extra wide foot and moderate arch. This style sneaker fits me perfect and very comfortable. Thank you Zappos for selling odd sizes. I can always count on you. I've tried other sneakers and I always end up with Asics.
