I find these shoe uppers a bit thin but they are mighty comfortable. I went to the county fair with my wife and walked for 4+ hours and after 3 hours plus feet were sore but not much. The soreness went away and the comfort came back. I miss the memory foam bigger such shoes but for the money these are top quality and made well and have adequate support in the soles and arch---not a cushy support but a firm support.

Fits well, awesome cushioning. The tongue bunches up a bit but it's nothing I can't live with. Very good shoe for the price especially for how beautiful the colors are

Plenty of toe room and a nice slick design but zero arch support in this one. The insole is cushy and has good rebound.

Got half a size bigger and it is great, the only negative is the fat padding around the ankles that was rubbing up high. But this shoes reminds me of ASICS good quality shoes from the past.

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!

I use inserts so support is not an issue, having room for the inserts is and these had the room. It's a little thing but the shoe strings are the right length; a lot of times they are so long they are a problem coming untied, etc.

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 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.

This was my attempt at returning to my former favorite brand of under-pronating shoes, Asics. The shoe was comfortable and looked great with the gum sole, but the fit was not snug enough for me. Back to New Balance I go!
