Love the look, but these run smaller than true to size. I wear a size 8 - 8.5 in all my shoes. I always buy a size 9 in my running shoes so I did that with these. There is no way I could run in these 9's. The toe box area runs a bit narrower and my toes are close to the end. There's also not as much cushion in the heel as I'm used to in my other brands. After about 10 years in Saucony and Brooks I returned to ASICS because of their reviews online in running blogs and in magazines. They may be great for others, but they don't seem to be very comfortable on my foot.

It didn’t work out for me. Cushioning wasn’t enough for me with my joint problems. Support felt a bit less than moderate, I have a high arch and a narrow heel, with a wider forefoot, but not wise enough to be a wide width. These just didn’t feel as good as other Asics.

Normally wear size 9 medium, but this one is a lot narrower. Should have taken note of the previous reviews and order Wide. Would love to exchange for wider but they don't have it in stock. Will put up with it although I don't know I can. Have not try to wear it yet.

Great for walking but not great for standing as a cashier I need a shoe great for both! Will try a different style next time! Shoes are super cute in person and fit true to size love them just wish they would be better for standing for the price of them.

The sneaker fit true to size and width. At first, I thought these would be the perfect replacement for the Asics sneakers that I have worn out. The cushioning was great. They felt great at first. Unfortunately, after a few hours of standing at work, I realized they are not going to be the right shoe at all.

These are not as good of quality as I would expect from asics shoes. I'm returning for this reason.

The tops of these shoes pressed on to the backs of my ankles very badly to the point they left marks and were very painful to wear. The sole also provided very little to no arch support. It felt like I was walking with paddles on my feet.

Love the look but the fit is tight. I work in the medical field, 12+ hours on my feet daily. I need comfort as well as durability.

I love a good Asics running shoe but this was not it. The toe box is too small and my foot just could not get comfortable. I gave it quite a few tries too. I will say pro the arch support is present.

I have been a long time user of the gt 1000 line. I have flat feet and I'm prone to plantar fasciitis. This line offers quality affordable stability shoe. However, I am very disappointed with the updates made to v7. I absolutely love the way they look! However, as soon as I try them on and started walking I could feel there is little to no arch support. I didn't even bother taking them out for a test run. I'm returning the shoes, which again is disappointing since they love the way they look and was very much looking forward to owning them.
Gt 1000 5 had an amazing feel! It's a real shame that you had to make so many changes.
If anyone is interested, Asics started making a GT Express line. I bought one pair of these as well as a pair of GT 2000 6. I have found that the express offers great support compared to the rest of the GT line. Unfortunately, aesthetically they are not so hot.
I plan on checking out other stability shoes.

These felt very heavy and my foot was too high in the heel and too low in the front.

I really love the design shoes, colors, FlyteFoam, and overpronation.
The one minor is not great is the flat feet because I got pain from that even though it was just a walking. I hope Asics can design this shoes to add the soft instead the flat feet.
I will still recommend this product to a friend, but to make sure to let my friend know that their feet don't sensitive pain by flat feet. I love Asics because they provide many options.

Comfortable shoe but didn’t last long. After a few weeks of lots of miles, the arch support is breaking down already. Also, wish I would have purchased a wider shoe. Didn’t realize they were a bit too narrow when I bought them. Too late to return them but I will use them around the house.

Overall I think Asics quality has diminished. I have been wearing Asics 20 years for running, walking as well as at work where I am on the move all day. I have tried different styles but I am not really satisfied with the the comfort or the sizing.

I wear a size 11 M and purchased the suggested size of 11.5. I would say that the fit was appropriate for a size 11 foot. My issue is the way that it felt at the top of my foot. There is something so uncomfortable with the tongue of the shoe. Even with the laces loosened, it pressed on the bone on the top of my foot. I very much like the look of the shoe, and the color combination of stone gray/carbon is nice. These are just not comfortable enough for me to keep.

Love these shoes! They are very comfortable! I bought them for my upcoming trip overseas. Sadly, I will be returning them (when I return) because they are ripped! Yes, the day before I leave, I looked at them and discovered a tear down the side of the fabric. They are less than a month old and I've probably only worn them for 2 weeks.

I've had a tough time replacing my very old Saucony running shoes, and I so wanted these to be the winners. Alas, after trying them out, I ended up with sore feet and a blister on each heel. I know everyone's feet are unique, but that was my experience. Also, the seafoam color is *really* bright.

Surprisingly uncomfortable. The cushioning around the Achilles was aggressive and put a lot of pressure above my heel. Like, the discomfort with a pair of flats that you know is going to wreck your Achilles. The sizing was otherwise right so that was not the issue.

This shoe was too long for the size. I need a shoe with really good support due to plantar faciititis. This shoe did accommodate my inserts. I did not like the feel of the fabric-I am rough on shoes and I was not sure the fabric would hold up under heavy walking and yard work that I do.

I was really disappointed when I got these. Strange the blue on the sole is totally different shade than the blue on the sneaker? I will send back - didn't love these. And I usually always love my asics!
