I normally wear a size 8, but ordered a half size up due to my bunion and having too tight athletic shoes in past. These fit pretty well, but I'm sure the 8 would've been fine. They have some good cushioning and feel bouncy in the heel...which is good when I'm on my feet all day. This is my first Asics shoe, but I would definitely purchase from this brand again.

I've worn these shoes for several years and like them for fit and comfort. I am so glad to be able to quickly go to Zappos - find an updated version, new color and within 2 days they are delivered. Terrific service!

Size was right on. These shoes give comfort all around, the heels and arch are on soft foam that also supports the foot.

These shoes were true to size, arrived promptly and were the usual high quality Asics shoe.

Can depend on great fit- wear them right out of the box. Zappos is so dependable with fast shipping and there's never a question if I have to return or exchange
an item. This is important for me since my hard-to-find a good fit shoe has long been a problem. Five star all around!

I used to buy Asics all the time, because they come in wide widths. I have a pair of New Balance sneakers which are worn out so I decided to try Asics again. I like the style and color plus the price was right.

Great fit. Other reviews said runs small so I sized up half size. Glad I did.

I have bunions and generally have a terrible time finding shoes that fit. I ordered these in my regular size in a wide and they are wonderful. The shoes are very soft on my bunions, so not only do they not hurt my feet, but they are extremely comfortable. The extra width does not make the shoes look huge on my feet either. I have even gotten compliments on how nice the shoes look. I love these shoes.

Perfect right out of the box. I'm a nurse and on my feet all day for 12 hours. I bought these to replace a similar pair and piut them on one morning and wore the entire day. No problems, plenty of cushioning.

My foot tends to run narrow and many times when a shoe is long enough it is then to wide. But when I order a narrow it is to small. This sneaker fits me perfect! I wanted a sneaker with pink in it and this has that. I wish there was more pink than black but the price was right.

I normally wear a 9 1/2B but my toes were at the end of the shoe, tried a 10 and then had to get a 10 1/2B. Thought maybe I needed a wider width, but the B was fine. Just wish they had a little more arch support.

I buy a new pair every year. Asics work the best for me and are very comfortable. I've tried Nike's, New Balance, and other brands, but they're not a good fit with my feet.

I always bought Asics, but then someone convinced me to try a different brand. I was so unhappy with those shoes that I decided to replace them and came back to Asics. I'm so glad I did. I love these shoes. My feet are wide, so finding a shoe that is stylish but doesn't squeeze my foot is hard. These are perfect. I wear an 8.5 wide and these fit exactly right. And the colors are fun. I was able to wear them right out of the box, no break in needed.

Put them on and immediately hit the treadmill; super glad I did. Very comfortable and supportive, even for my ankles. My favorite pair of ASICS to date.

Love the Asics Gels. I wear an orthotic and was able to use it by taking the insole out and replace it with my orthotic. So far, so good. I wish these shoes came in white with white shoe laces. Overall, all is positive.
