Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Flux 5

Some ASICS models are just right, but this one is too narrow at the front- doesn’t work with bunions. Also, not much cushioning in the forefoot. Colors are nice-

I switched from Nike's to Asics and my first pair was a Flux-3. They have been my favorite pair of Flux shoes so far. Comfortable from the moment I tried them on. When I wore them out I moved to the Flux-4 still comfortable but not as Comfortable as the Flux-3. Now that I've worn them out I moved on to the Flux-5. Once again not as comfortable as the Flux-4 and they feel a little smaller. I'll keep wearing them for now, but may look for another pair of Flux-4 on Amazon. Still more comfortable that what I can find in Nike's now, though.

Have worn Asics for years. I am disappointed in this shoe. I ordered 8.5 wide but these were too narrow and short. I'll be returning and let my feet do the shopping! I should have listened to the other reviews.

Oh my gosh, the insole is extremely firm. Numerous pressure points had my feet in pain the first day I wore them. I got these at a good price, but if I have to buy my own insole, it doesn't seem like such a great deal anymore. I do like the color and style, but cannot recommend them based on the poor comfort.

Almost an entire size too small!

This is by far the worst shoe I’ve ever bought. I bought wides and they are very narrow at the toe. This made my toes rub together and I have blisters now. I will not be wearing them for running or long distance walking. Very disappointed.

Not impressed with this style. Typically buy half size up madeium width and these were still short and extremely narrow. Toe box squeeze was extreme. Will be returning this shoe.

Description said this shoe is good for those with supination or underpronation, which I do. But after walking just a half mile in these puppies, my feet and calves started screaming. I tried to run, couldn't go more than 20 feet without the pain increasing. It was wild! I've used Asics exclusively for 10 years, through many half marathons. I've never had a shoe make such an immediate and big impact on my feet. I'm sure it works well for some, but not me!

disappointed

They felt like I was walking on a rock. What a mess. No cushioning.

My flux 4 are my favorite but are getting old and I wanted to replace them. Should have listened to the reviews! These are not the same shoes at all! The fit is way off. The flux 4’s i had were a 9.5. Based on the reviews for these I ordered a 10 Wide and still no luck. The heel area is tight and they don’t feel wide at all. Sadly, they just aren’t the same and will have to go back.
