I ordered these sneakers for my college age son who requires an "EE" width and has a hard time finding wide shoes that he likes. He liked them immediately and is wearing them around town!

Kush...these feel like pillows strapped to my feet. Plenty of arch support too. Fit my semi-wide feet fine.

I’ve been wearing these shoes about 2 weeks now and everything is going well. They are comfortable, light, not too narrow, and have good air flow. I recommend these shoes.

Perfect shoes for my college-age son. He runs 25-30 miles a week, and only needs 2 days to break these in.

Love the design and fit of this shoe. I use it to walk around in all the time. If you're looking for a go-to pair of shoes, this is it!

Felt great when I tried them on, just got back from a run and the fit is spot on. Decent amount of support and looks great. Something about having new shoes puts a little pep in your step when going for a run.

I was amazed with how comfortable these shoes are. I'm unfamiliar with the cushioning they are using, but it's fantastic. Never had shoes this comfortable before. They look great, too.

I’m a size 13 and never had a problem. Bought one other pair of sneakers from zappos(different brand) and size 13 was too small by about half a size. These ASICS fit perfectly. I’m new to gel insoles so that was a pleasant surprise. It’s like running on air. Love them for running but would probably recommend sneakers with a little more support if you are running anywhere other than on flat ground/pavement; it feels like you would easily roll your ankle if you were to step on an exposed tree root or something like that on a nature/mountain trail.

Fits very well in size extra wide. The walking comfort level from the insole is amazing!

Asics Gel-Contend 5 fit great. I am on my feet in these shoes 10 hours a day. I put 6 to 12 miles in these shoes indoors a day. They feel great and look great.
I'd also recommend:
Asics

I love Asics but I find that where I usually wear a 9, a 9 1/2 is a bit more comfortable. Great running shoes!

The fit and size was pretty much right on. If anything, it might be a slight bit snug, but the ones I got were perfect. The sole feels pretty good. Almost like gel cushion. I usually order wide (4E) shoes too. Everything about it has been great so far!

This was made for me!
I've been having knee issues for a couple years now. Standing and walking for any period of time would be terrible. Last year I bought a pair and wore them until they were falling apart (literally tho the outside of the show is missing a ton of pieces ) and noticed my knee was so much better.
I just ordered these and for the several days I've been wearing them, it's been heaven. I won't ever be wanting to wear any other shoes. It's a whole different experience with Asics and I'm just sorry I didn't discover them sooner.
Thank you guys so much!

This was for my son who's feet seem to keep growing exponentially every year. He's 11 years old and wears a size 9.5. We had to return and exchange for a wide size, because the shoe was a bit narrow for him. I also wear asics for running and also always buy a wide size. Otherwise great shoe, great support and cushioning.
