Some shoes work great for some people, and other people could absolutely hate the shoe. ASICS have worked well for me in the past, so I decided to try these. The fit is at least a half size small. Keep that in mind when ordering. I typically wear a 14, but they don’t carry half sizes in shoes that big, so I got a 14 and hopes for the best. They are a little small, but it doesn’t keep them from being comfortable. The color in the stock photos shows the blue more vividly than it is in real life. I didn’t really care, but if you’re picking the color to match something else you’ll wear, the color might be a little off.

Overall a well made shoe. Superior arch support - almost too much with the addition of my orthotics. My only complaint is that my feet seem to get warmer than normal in them - I do run hot though. I am cross training for a 1/2 marathon right now and these shoes have served me very well.

These are very good shoes. I like the support, comfort and fit of these trail running shoes. I did note that walking on a water-soaked black top path that the traction of my shoes caused some slippage. A better grip on the water surface would have made me feel safer.

These are a comfortable shoe . The look of the shoe is kind of basic in my opinion but still nice . I will buy these shoes again

It was a great fit from the beginning - no breaking in required. Only thing I wasn't crazy about were the laces - they were flat and floppy, like on a sneaker - something I hadn't seen on a running shoe ever before. They were just not as easy to tie as round ones. In the winter, they will be even trickier with cold hands

Sizing is smaller than all other ASICS shoes I've had. The soles are a little hard and do not bend as much, but that's expected for lower end ASICS. The biggest complaint are the shoe laces that are thin and difficult to tie. Not recommended for those who are seriously considering running as it may discourage one from a comfortable run.

I thought they would be more comfortable, but are a little stiff and heavy feeling.

I ordered a size 10, like my 4 other pairs of Asics sneakers, and they were too large. I returned them and ordered a size 9.5, the length was ok but the toe box is too narrow and cramped. I decided to keep them hoping they would stretch out and become more comfortable. I should have returned them and started my search for a new brand. It's always disappointing when a shoe company makes a change to their products. I switched to Asics from another brand that I wore for many years before they decided to save money by making them cheaper, now I have to find a new brand that fits me better.

I have 2 pair if Asics running shoes. Gel Kayano 27 and Gel Venture 7. I love my Kayano shoes. Great fit and feel great while running and after. I received my Venture 7 shoes a few weeks ago and when I first put them on they felt great. I have used them on my elliptical a few times and while doing an exercise video and my feet are sore when I finish.

Gel Venture 6 was a true 4E in both length and width. I wear a size 9 4E in Gel Venture 6. Even sizing up to a Size 9.5 4E, still way too short and narrow.

I normally wear a minimal running shoe but even these felt like they had zero cushion. My heels hurt after wearing them.

My feet hurt at the part where the toes meet the foot - worst Asics shoes ever - went back to my old Cumulus ones - these were awful.

These were comfortable except for the size, but I decided on another pair to try, that support my ankles more, will see how they fit. These were the first Brand that support my metatarsals on the outside of my feet other than Keens.

I really liked these shoes, but after only three months of indoor usage, the toe boxes have begun to separate from the outsoles.

I ordered these because they can in Extra Wide. They looked really nice but when I tried them on they were way narrower than other brands’ Extra Wide (4E). Go with a New Balance or a Brooks.

I have a narrow foot and so I have to compromise my size to buy shoes from you all. I wish you had narrower shoes.
