Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Excite® 7

These are a solid, affordable option from ASICS. They are comfortable, but run a bit narrow like most from this brand, so I recommend going 1/2 up and/or getting the wide. I have normal width feet and just went up 1/2 size in the regular width and they fit perfectly. I personally would not use these for outdoor running as the front seems less padded than I would like, but they are perfect for daily walks, running errands, etc. I bought these to use for walks and light workouts and they are great.

I like the look of these shoes and when I first put them on they felt comfortable. But, after walking in them for a while they started to hurt the ball of my left foot. The toe box was somewhat narrow and there was a slight seam in that location. I had to return them.

These shoes are terrible. My daughter got them on July 13 and by November 13 the shoes are unwearable. The fabric at the back of the heal wore away quickly and exposed a hard, sharp piece of plastic underneath. Now that all of the padding and fabric have worn away my daughter cannot wear the shoe without the plastic coming into contact with her foot and rubbing her skin away even with bandaids and thick socks. At the price of these shoes, they should have lasted longer than 4 months. Very disappointed.

Greats shoes

Fit perfectly. Great comfort, especially for the price.

The gel- excite 7 fit true to size. There is a lot of support on the sole. They feel soft and cushiony. The toe box is comfortable. The fabric on top is a flexible, breathing mesh. I have no complaints at all. I do a lot of walking but, don’t run. I really like them.

I normally wear an 8W and ordered these in 8W. They fit perfectly and are extremely comfortable with plenty of room across the ball of the foot in wide, and yet the heel fits well. Sometimes wide shoes have wide heels that are sloppy and cause blisters but these do not. They are sleek and great looking and look cute on, with a nice shape to the forefoot, not blocky like some wide sneakers. Very attractive, supportive and so comfortable. I would definitely buy these again.

I wear an 8 1/2 medium width. The sneakers fit perfectly and have good cushioning. My toes are comfortable in the toe box. I’m not a runner but am on my feet most of the day and like to walk. I’ve been wearing them for about a week and they’ve been very comfortable. I like the look of them also.

Love these shoes! The colors are so bright and pretty. The shoes are very comfortable. I usually wear a 9.5 and I sized up to a 10. I think they are a little to big. May size down and see if a 9.5 fits better. I have had several foot surgeries including a heel spur so finding comfortable shoes can sometimes be a little difficult for me. These shoes are very comfortable and have enough room in the toe. I do feel like my heel slides in them a tad. Overall, I really like these shoes. For a first time ASICS customer I am not disappointed!

Love these shoes! This is my fourth pair!

I wear ASICS exclusively. Some fit my narrow feet better than others. The GEL- Excite is perfect... narrow and lots of support. Love the peacock blue and the low price is a bonus

Fit and size are true! Color is amazing! There was no “break-in” period. Comfortable and durable. I plan to purchase another pair in a different color.

To me, they are perfect in everything.

The fit, style and comfort were all there except that I wear orthotics and the Asics Cummulus felt more comfortable. Thank you Zappos for allways having great customer service and carrying my size 11narrows and size 12 for athletic shoes.

Great sneakers - love Asics - they fit perfect all the time and are so light and comfortable!

These shoes are good. My last few pairs have been the Asics Gel-Contend shoes. I decided to go with these because they looked similar to the Gel-Contend, but had prettier colors. I've worn them for two weeks and they seem to fit roughly the same as the Gel-Contends.

Was surprised at how comfortable these were right from the first day. I walk a lot and I find them really good for my walking shoes.

I love these shoes! I love black and hot pink! I previously had a pair of Asics, so picking a size for this new pair was easy. My new pair has a lot of cushion/ amplifoam so the shoe is tighter than my previous pair but not enough to have to size up. Fit well, look great...5 stars.

I love these shoes!! They are super comfy and great to for running! Or even everyday wear.

Love the shoe! Bought 2!! So comfortable and very true to size!

I was hesitant to buy these because the reviews said they were narrow in the toe box: although I have a bunion they fit perfectly and are so comfortable with the max cushion. FYI they do stretch with wear in a few days! Love them, bought two more colors!

After not being able to find a size 12 Narrow in my budget, I refocused on reading tons of reviews from different brands to find something similar. I found quite a few reviews about ASICS and how narrow they were, so I thought I’d give these a try. I am very pleased with the fit! Sneakers are comfortable for walking and after my first 5K in them, my back did not hurt, so that’s a win. I’m 5’11 and 175 pounds and felt these shoes cushioned my stride as I ran.

Love these shoes so much I bought a second pair! Very comfortable and true to size.
