Tried and true to Asics comfort, style and performance. Felt a little smaller than in previous shoes but overall another great shoe.

I ordered these for my husband to wear to work. The green is very true to the picture. Not my favorite color but my husband loves them. They give him good support for walking on concrete all day

Love these shoes! Perfect for me with my pronation. Not many shoes available in wide. Nice styling. Excellent durability. This is my second pair in this model/style. I may order another for the future due to the value/comfort.

I first bought my child ASICS last year for school so when this year fell around she wanted another pair. She was really surprised at how well they have held up to her extreme wear.

For many years of road running, I was an avid ASICS fan, but when I tried much earlier version of this shoe, I found it all but useless for long-distance trail running, so for years I've worn New Balance 1210 Leadvilles, the only true stability trail shoe I could find in 4E width. New Balance has discontinued that shoe with no successor planned, and doesn't offer any other stability trail shoes, so I've come back to ASICS. This shoe is heavier than I'd prefer, but I'm hoping it meets my needs.

Comfortable but not for long hours of wear. On my feet for 6-8 hours at a time and I am comfortable with it with first half of my day.

Ive worn much more expensive Nike shoes that only lasted me 2-3 months at best, and didnt have as good of support, didn't have as durable materials, and stitch quality was not as good, so I am very pleased with these midgrade level Asics for my active life. If only they were more stylish like other brands, they would be perfect.

I own two pair of ASICS Gel-Venture 5 shoes that I use when working around the house. They are great, sturdy and comfortable shoes. I wanted to replace one of the pairs and bought the Venture 6 in the same size 10.5M (95% of my shoe purchases are 10.5M). The Venture 6 medium width is visibly much narrower than the Venture 5. It was uncomfortable so I exchanged them for the 4E and they look and feel like the Venture 5 medium. Overall, a great shoe for the price, but be aware that they may be narrower than you're used to.

I bought these shoes for my husband. He really likes the style, comfort, & overall feel of the shoe. It’s just a little wide in the toe box.

Very nice shoe.
We'll see how long it lasts -- my last pair of Asics was shot before the first set of laces wore out.

The fit and size were very good. But, it was the service that makes me a customer. The shoes I tried first were not quite right. The fit was not so good. I had no trouble at all exchanging them for the shoes I purchased. Great experience!

Shoes always feel tight to me, these feel closer to "snug." Fairly comfortable right off the bat - not a lot of breaking in necessary for daily use/long walks...

I have a wide foot (4E) but a narrow heel and I've tried various brands of running / athletic shoes and Asics are only brand I've found that fit me well and don't slide up and down on my heel. The Gel Venture 6 is typical of this series regarding quality and design and I normally get long wear from my Asics.

I have purchased this style in several sizes for my teenage son. He loves this shoe so much that when he outgrows a pair, he asks for the next size. He is hard on shoes, but these last long enough for him to outgrow them -- better than some shoes we have tried.

These shoes are great. They provide a little bit of bounce when you step, keeping some pressure off of the knees. Very comfortable.
