Lightweight and comfortable, similar fit as its predecessor. I have owned previous iterations of the Gel model and they all have fit well and felt comfortable: this one does too.

Great shoes but the SHOELACES ARE TOO SHORT. Yes, they are long enough, but you have to tie a teency weency little knot and that is hard to do if you have big sausage fingers like me. The cheap so and so's at Asics must be trying to save a few pennies. I had to shell out a couple more bucks to get new replacement shoelaces. Pffft.

The left one had a manufacturing defect. The lower end of the tongue was not properly attached to the shoe. It has a stub that stick down into the foot. Hope this is a special case and ASICS quality, normally very good, isn't degrading.
My son was very happy with the right one. Fits well on his 11.5 4E foot.

Of the Gel-Venture line, the 6 is my favorite. They are getting harder to find, and I was so glad to find them here. They are great for walking/hiking, and don't have the break-in period that some shoes do.

I love these shoes and this is now my second pair. I use them to run on pavement, dirt, jetty rocks and the beach. They have great support and good looks. The price I got was excellent. I hope ASICS continues to produce this model.

Very comfortable shoe. I wear a 2E (wide) in most shoes and I got a 4E in these shoes. They are right on.
I really wish more companies and more shoes were made in the larger wide sizes. I wear a 14wide in most shoes and finding them, and having them actually fit can be an issue.

Excellent shoes for the outdoor. Easily beats the Nikes and other brands with comfort alone. The fit this shoe provides and the ruggedness for outdoor is amazing

Asics has always been my go to running shoe but over the years they stop making the shoes I like so this time I stocked up on the Venture 6.It's a great shoe both in feel and in look.If you can still find some for sale you should go for it.

Very happy with this shoe; I bought a men's size 9.5 even though I wear a size 9 in women's; I was able to insert an orthotic and wear heavier socks which made this shoe perfect; the wide toe box is so comfortable. I'm a nurse and on my feet up to 12 hours a day. This shoe helps a lot with knee and back pain; plus the price was unbeatable through the website.

These are the best for my flat arch-- comfortable and very supportive. Been wearing Asics for years and definitely will continue.

These Gel-Venture 6 shoes are the best fitting, made, and wearing Asics I've ever owned. Ideal for gym/walking/hiking/treadmill/bum around use. Better than all the subsequent Asics I've owned. Too bad i can't find Indigo Blue/Black/Energy Green in size 11 4E.

I walk about 3-4 miles a day on streets and sidewalks and these provide great support and feel. Have had gel venture 6 before and they last.

Developed a sore heel. Podiatrist told me to get 2 pair (inside and outside) of Asics sneakers. Bought Gel 6 MX and less expensive pair. Replaced the less expensive pair with another Gel 6 MX. The first time I put them on pain was reduced at least 80%. I was truly amazed my heel could feel that much better that quickly. Only had one month and sneakers in good shape. Very glad I purchased these Asics sneakers.

I have owned may shoes and most have never fit quite right. These are awesome. Perfect fit, no fatigue and super comfy.

Great shoe, so far only used it on the street and the treadmill but it has great cushion so should be just fine once I get to the trails.

This is my second order of the same shoe. I love it because it comes in extra-wide and it's durable. I walk in it all day long and my feet never get tired or sore. Plus it last a long time. I work at a horse farm and walk a lot.

As a cellar master at a winery I use these shoes exclusively to climb barrels, not run. The wide toe area, great grip, and lightweight make them perfect.
