Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Venture® 6

I read a lot of reviews prior to purchasing these because I have very high arches. While the arch support was ok, not great, my biggest complaint is how tight the top of the shoe is, even with loose laces. It made my feet hurt worse and am looking to go back to Brooks running shoes.

Perfect

I love them. Enough room for my bunions. Felt comfortable the first wear with no break in needed.

love this style! i want to get in every color but they don't all come in wider width. perfect!

These shoes are excellent at first. However, over after a couple months of use, they do tend to lose support and I can see where the shoes show my feet are now supinating and rolling out to the side. I have plantar fascitis and a heel bone spur and after a couple months of wear, my feet are killing me.

I agree with some of the other reviews that there isn't enough cushion in the toe box. Also...they're kind of ugly! At least in the color I bought...

love the fit & feel!

Great shoe for walking. Really love the colors.

I tried four different Asics running shoes and these were the most comfortable. I have worn them running on a track and on a paved trail and they were fine on both. Some Asics gel shoes are too squishy for me, but these are about right. The look is cute. The laces have a tendency to come untied, though. And I wish they had the lace holes for ankle locking. On sale, good value for the price.

Really wanted to like this shoe. Tried it on different times of day thinking it would feel less stiff - but unfortunately just was not comfortable.

I have extremely high arches and I always use arch inserts with my shoes but these are super comfortable for me. They are currently my second pair and I will continue to buy these because they are a great value and they offer several design/color combinations.

Perfect! Love everything about them, especially the color!

The arch support in these is lacking. There's a little arch support on the outer side of the shoe, but non on in the inside of the arch which is where I need it most. The heel area was comfortable and felt protected so I really liked that about the shoe. (I have a narrow heel compared to the rest of my foot) The toe box was roomy and worked ok. I'm returning these shoes as the arch support was pretty non existent and just aren't going to support my foot for my runs, workouts and everyday running around.

This shoes has not disappointed. Very comfortable and stylish with all the different color options.

Front to back and width felt good but cut into the outside park of my ankle on a pressure point.

I have had 2 pairs of Gel Contend and I like them a lot. I liked the look of these so decided to try a different model of Asics. However these fit really weird. Length and Width they seemed normal. So I am not sure if it is the arch support? I have neutral feet. These feel like there is something extra underneath the balls of my feet and putting extra pressure there. I'm not really sure how else to describe it. I tried them on and walked around my house a bit and just sat at my desk. After awhile my feet started to go numb. So going to return these and try something else. (I really wanted these to fit because I like the style and I hate returning things!)

Great fit. So comfy

Comfortable from the very second I put them on. I wore them within the week on a hike in the Lake Tahoe area and my feet were just fine. In fact, I wore them all day after the hike. The next day, I did a short run with them and I was amazed at how light they were on my feet and how easy they made the run. These are the best runners I have ever had.

I love these, I find they provide better heel stability then a Gel Nimbus and I need this stability.I used to be a runner but due to injuries I use these for trail walking.

So far so good. I walk ever morning in a semi-rural area and these shoes are doing the job. They are super cute and very supportive. I love the ASICS brand and these are keeping up with our daily routine.

I can depend on ASICS to be true to size and fit. Very comfortable shoe.
