I really like the way these shoes look and feel, however they aren't 100% supportive. But other than that I really like how they fit and look!

Very happy with these. The cushioning on my last pair of running shoes wore down and I needed a new pair. These are very comfortable to run in and I like the gray color.

Was a little larger than some at the same size. But not enough to send back. I would rather it be that way as I take out their insoles and insert my othrodics and Happy Feet insole over those for softness.

I finally found a running shoe to fit. I wear an 11.5 or 12 in either a narrow or wide-depending on the company. Can't wait to start running! Thanks Zappos!

I really like the Asics and they all hold up really well! I felt like this style ran a half size smaller than they should, but im still "breaking them in". Overall, i like them a lot!

The most comfortable Asics I have bought in a while. I used to be solely an Asics buyer, but about 2 years ago, their quality went down (too narrow in the toe, too thin insole). Hope they keep the quality like this pair--comfortable, not tight, cushioned insole.

The sole of this shoe is very comfortable. If you want to take the pressure off your toes, this shoe is for you! I like the look.

The Excite 7 is amazingly soft and comfortable for all people, regardless of shoe size or shape. So much comfort is provided and support.

I have worn asics for over 10yrs and tried many models Dynaflyte to date is my favourite. I wanted to try out the excite model and my opinion would be it's an average runner great for walking in but definitely not running - maybe because I'm running in novablast at the minute so there is a huge comfort difference. With regards sizing I purchased a size 6 but probably could of gone with 6 1/2 definitely smaller sizing than novablast. Overall a nice everyday runner and a bargain price.

They are just o.k. i don't love them at all. The right shoe seems be larger than the left. It seems to expand when I walk. Used and can't return.

These shoes are attractive. However, if you have a wide toe box, the wide is not wide enough. I am keeping them but not terribly happy with the fit after wearing for a few hours. Not the shoe I hoped for.

When I run or walk, the bottoms of my feet feel tingly and not in a good way. I probably should have gone with a more expensive pair.

Ok running shoe after I wore them a few times but found the Gel Contend 5 to be more comfortable right out of the box. Thought the 6 would be an upgrade but wasn't the case.

Comfortable shoes except for the back upper part that is too rigid and causing blisters on the ankle despite using thick socks. Is this a factory defect or part of the shoe being this hard at the back? This is my fourth pair of Asics runners and this is the first time that I have encountered this problem.

Sneakers scrape the back of my foot. It made it very difficult to use.

These are okay. I wish there was more padding in the heel .

SUPER comfortable shoe, but as someone with wide feet that pronate, the inside of the heel chafes and makes it quite uncomfortable. Everything else is great, but hoping to find other options to support the inner heel.

I really like the color of the shoe. However, the side of the shoe rubs on my ankle bone and makes it uncomfortable. For that reason, I will be returning them.

Very strange. I have worn and enjoyed the identical shoes, so ordered again. The right shoe is too tight; the left shoe is perfect.

The fit and size are great -- but these shoes feel STIFF and they never broke in (after 7 months I'm giving up).

I have been buying (and loving) Asics sneakers for many many years. I live in my sneakers!! I only buy Asics because they are so well made and have removable insoles . I replace the insoles with custom orthotics. This new pair is the first time the insoles were not removable. I was disappointed.

Fit was standard Asics (i.e., 1/2 to 1 size up from normal shoe size - I wear a size 9 in other shoes & size 10 in running shoes). Style/colors were as expected. My only issue was needing a true neutral support instead of a hybrid overpronation to neutral support running shoe and these bothered my heels on 3rd use - sadly returning and will try the gel cumulus-21 for more appropriate support.
