my foot slides forward and backwards in these shoes. I generally buy cumulus. These have a different fit but, i believe they're gonna workout.

I really like this shoe. I love the color and they are really comfortable. I bought this shoe because I walk 5 times a week and it is usually on dirt and hills. I needed something more comfortable than the shoes I was wearing because I was having some issues with my arch and ankle. It has not really helped with my ankle but I did buy something to help support my arch and when I wear it with these shoes, they are comfortable for my walks. I probably need something else for my ankle.

too wide in front for my narrow feet! I got a different pair of asics and enjoyed the fit better. I used to run with GEL-Venture 5 and thought these would fit well. Oh well. Enjoying my GT-2000 7's.

They've got a good structure. I'm used to other running shoes, and I'm surprised by how much I like these ones.

I love this shoe and only gave 4 stars because of the color. The grey looks too green.

I like the style but the shoe was not wide enough especially around the middle portion of my foot.

Feet slide in shoe; tried different remedies e.g diff socks, lacing styles, etc.
Not found of lace type either. Difficult to remain tied.

I Love the way the shoe looks! But, unfortunately I have wide feet. Even though I ordered a wide....it was still a tight fit. I returned them.

I need a shoe to work out and run in that is comfortable and supports my arch that I think is falling. I liked the look of the shoe. Although I tend to get a solid color shoe, I really liked this multi-colored shoe. The only reason I returned the shoe is because it fits kind of big. I have a narrow heel, but generally I don't have an issue with how a running shoe fits. My foot was moving around no matter how tight I pulled the shoestrings. I'll have to go back to Nike.

I bought these for light hiking and they're great. The soles are not quite as comfortable as other asics running shoes I have, but still do the job and the extra traction on the bottom is exactly what I needed. I found tall socks are necessary as they rub the back of my heel and caused a blister after a couple of hours of hiking, but I usually wear those anyways.

comfortable and attractive, but the shoe strings are shorter than other Asics I have, and I can't double loop them.

The ASICS brand has been my go to athletic shoe, I found this style to be light weight and easy to wear for our daily walks on the trails in our community,

This shoe is attractive and, even with its minimal padding, is comfortable enough. I like that the sole isn’t very flexible as I need to keep the front of my foot more stable. I don’t think this is the shoe for extended comfort wear, but, due to its great price-point, I am keeping it as an around-the-yard shoe.

This is my second pair of Gel-Venture 6. I use them for walking, mostly on paved road. I've only worn this pair for a couple of walks - maybe 15 miles so far - and I see no difference between this pair and the last, which I purchased 10 months ago. I'm a repeat customer because these fit my narrow, high-arched feet. They don't last forever, but are not expensive to replace.

The heel is too wide but I have a very narrow heel so had to add heel inserts. The shoe is light weight and comfortable.

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

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 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.

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.

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

Comfortable and sturdy. I love the colors! Not as cushioned as my my favorite ASICS gel- cumulus 18 but my plantar fasciitis hasn't flared up when wearing them.
