This is the only shoe I've used for the last 5 plus years, Started with the 5 now using the 6. Very comfortable and durable for trials.

I've been wearing these shoes for years. They fit great and are real comfortable. My boot size is 10.5 wide. I have to buy these at 12 wide, but they fit great

My husband loves these shoes. He's on his 8th pair! He wears them daily and about every 6 months gets a new pair and retires the others for yard/mowing shoes!

I owe my life to these shoes. Each time I tried to run with an expensive pair of shoes... I failed. And then I bought these inexpensive shoes! My whole life changed afer that. I run in them, work in them...I just love these shoes and Asics!

Comfortable with a nice, firm sole and stiff heel that is good for walking on rough, hilly roads.

Been wearing the same pair for a year and a half now, using them as work shoes,, working part time mornings @ a large department store. I walk an average of 3 1/2 miles on a 5 1/2 hr. shift, & they are holding up awesome, unlike the previous Venture series that had multiple laminated treads, that came unglued pretty quickly.
These treads are pretty much solid, with just the forward & heel part, & a lot more waterproof also because of this ''way better'' tread design.
I figure that they should last me at least another 6 months,, & I will then get another comparable pair.

I bought these as trail running shoes but they worked so well I ditched my waterproof Merrel MOAB hiking boots and only hike in these now. (I realized waterproof keeps water out, but also keeps water IN)
Over the summer our family hiked around 150 miles, including many "in-the-river" hikes like the Narrows and Subway at Zion. They stayed on well, drained & dried out fast.
My wife bought some new Merrel hiking shoes for that 9-week summer trip, I wore my already year+ old Venture 6. Her Merrels were splitting apart by the end of the 9 weeks and I'm still wearing my Ventures!
Also... I'm wear 4E (i should probably wear 6E, I have Hobbit feet) and Asics are the only shoes that fit really well for me. I was THRILLED when they started offering the Gel-Cumulus in 4E again!

Very comfortable to wear if you're on your feet all day. Shoes are solidly made. ASICS have really helped with my recovery from a torn ligament in my foot.

The gel venture 6 is the best fitting shoe since the first generation of the Leadville 3. I have tried numerous other shoes that come in 4E but this has been the best shoe I've been able to find in the last few years. They provide great support and have plenty of toe room which is important to me. I liked it so much I bought three pairs.

This shoe is excellant in comfort and fit and finish!. I dont run with them but do alot of walking and hiking so this review is for walking. Also love the color and styling patern, its not too teenager in looks so some of us older folks can wear them and not get any strange looks!.

Fairly new to running, thought my constant shin and ankle soreness was normal but changed to these shoes and they've almost all subsided minus normal soreness. Would recommend these to new runners.

Extremely comfortable, with excellent padding on the sole. They do run a little warm -- probably not enough to matter to most people, but I tend to get hot feet anyway, so it occasionally bothers me. I haven't stopped wearing them, though. I was getting shin splints from walking on concrete in my former shoes, and these have taken those pains away!

I jogged 30 miles a week in these shoes for 6 months. They held up great. Very surprised how comfortable but how tough and rugged these shoes are. Love the black and light grey colors too! My favorite shoe for the price....very reliable.
