Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Venture® 6

I have been looking for a hiking shoe for over a year and purchased this pair and a pair of Merrill Moab II Vents, knowing I could return them if they didn't fit well. Surprise, they both fit and feel great so I am keeping both pair. Still trying to decide which pair will go to Europe with me though! I have custom footbeds so I don't really know about the support of this shoe in that regard, but the fit is very good. I am a solid 9.5 wide and the toe box of this shoe gives me the room I need to keep my Morton's Neuromas happy. Or at least pain free.

The asics model has changed over time. I had a hard time finding another pair I liked after the Gel Equation-8, but the Gel-Venture 6 hold up. The shoes are comfortable and provide the right support.

I bought these for my teenage daughter in marching band and drum line. The shoes give her some nice support for all the running around. And the price is great as well.

These shoes were very comfortable right out of the box. I wore them all day on the first day and they felt very good. The gel in the heel adds a lot. It's great to be able to try a couple of sizes and with free returns.

COMFORTABLE, right from the box--also, the very FIRST pair of ASICS where the wide width was truly, a width wide enough for my very wide feet. I typically have to resort to men's Asics in a 4E--and these shoes are comparable. And, love the colors-attractive shoe-IMO.

Great price for a quality shoe. Really love the 24 hour customer service

I ordered these shoes after reading a lot of reviews. I am extremely happy with them. Ever since my first pair of Asics running shoes many years ago, that is all I wear. The fit is perfect for my feet and never need a breaking in period. I am not a runner but use them for walking and the gym.

The shoe looks great and fits true to size for me. I always substitute a better arch support than the shoe comes with so cannot vouch for the arch support. Overall I am very pleased with this purchase.

These are my go-to workout shoe. I have struggled with plantar fasciitis for years off and on (and am currently having problems with it in my right foot). I have an older version of these, but had decided to try something new to see if it helped my plantar fasciitis, and so tried a different brand of shoe. Those shoes were comfortable in other ways, but didn't provide the support I needed. I ordered these, and my foot felt better instantly. I also have flat arches, so they may not work for everyone, but they have worked well for me.

I think this is the first pair of athletic shoes that I did not feel the necessity to buy orthotic arch supports. Super comfortable right out of the box! In fact, I put the shoes on and drove over to our local state park which has lots of incline/decline terrain and walked over 2 miles in them with no issues. I love the accent color with the gray. I would definitely buy these again!

Fits perfectly and very comfortable

The Gel 6 was very comfortable right out of the box. Love them!

I'm really skeptical about ordering shoes online. However, these shoes are perfect. I really like the color and the fit. I will continue to order.

The ASICS Gel shoes fit great. They are comfortable and sturdy...my 2nd pair!

This is the second pair of these I bought, I am so happy with the fit and comfort. I have very wide feet with bunions, I underpronate, and find hard to find any sneakers that are comfortable for 3 to 5 mile hikes over fields, through woods, up and down hills, etc. But these are great, my knees don't hurt, my joints aren't stiffening up after hikes, and they don't hurt my bunions. They seem like they'll hold up fairly well, too--I was wearing Rykas or Avias, but they don't last at ALL. These seems excellent for me.

This is my second pair and it is a good and confortable shoe!

Got my first pair about 6 months. Great for my feet. Had to have another color!!

I got do many compliments on them. Good support.

Well made, comfortable, correctly sized.

Fits same as previous ascics which is 1/2 size up. I ordered regular width based on reviews and fits fine. Would recommend.
