Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Venture® 7

I’m a size 11. I ordered these in an 11 and I got the wide just in case. They are much too small and uncomfortable. Nice looking shoe otherwise, but the wide felt more narrow than my medium width sneakers.

These shoes are cute, but overall I didn't like them. They felt clunky on my feet. They were not at all flexible. The cushion inside felt barely better than ones I was replacing. My feet even tingled a bit after my runs. I'm thankful for Zappos Runlimited return policy, because I've already sent them back

Great looking shoes but they feel about a 1/2 size too big. Going to order an 8.5 and see if it fits better.

Looks great. Toe box is a little narrow, but I hope it stretches with wear. Not many options in 10-1/2 so I was happy to find it.

I've been wearing Asics for years. They're the only brand of sneakers I've worn for a very long time, and this is the first pair I've ever had that felt narrow.

I wish the shoes would work, very cute , but my feet hurt when walking in them.

Very lightweight, but not as supportive as other Asics that I've had in the past. Wide, but also not quite as wide as other Asics.

Good support but runs small.

The material used to construct the uppers was stiff. Also, the shoe seemed to be rude in the heels. When I walked my feet were sliding up abs down in the back of the shoe.

The heel was too wide on my foot. Also the material used to construct the shoe upper was too stiff.

The website suggested I get size 9 even though I wear 8-1/2. The shoes are definitely true to size 9...too big, but I am just wearing thicker socks and pulling the laces tight. They work. They are darker than they appeared online, but I like the colors either way.

The shoe was quite comfortable, but after three months of dog walking on trails with some decent up and down sections the foam padding in the heel had worn through to the point where I am replacing them.

Wish sole was deeper for trail use, returned

I ordered a 10.5 medium last year. After several hiking trips this summer, I decided I needed something a tad larger, as my pinky toe was smashed against the side. I ordered an 11. However, the 11 was the EXACT SAME SIZE as the 10.5. Very frustrating. I then ordered an 11W, thinking that even if I had the same length, a little extra width would help. The 11W was the exact same size as the 10.5M and the 11M. It is really hard to find half sizes once you get above a 10. I really hate that Asics is being dishonest with their sizing. It is one thing of their 10.5 isn't the same as someone else's; but it is really annoying that they don't really make these special sizes; instead they just make one size and put a different label on it.

I think the sole is too stiff and hard.
