I'm a size 10 and purchased a size 10 but thought these ran a little small - returned them for a 10.5 and they fit perfectly. They are sturdy and I really like the strength of the sides of the shoe (some other shoes have a strong/solid bottom but the sides are flimsy and offer no support) these offered support all around which was great since I have flat feet

Sized up based on reviews and wasn't disappointed. Clocking 10 miles walking to date, so far, so good. Would recommend.

These run small. Advisable to get a half size up.

If you want to use Dr Scholls arch supports these shoes work well if purchased 1/2 size larger than usual. I love them and wear them whenever I can!

I'm always annoyed when sellers ask for a review immediately after a purchase, especially when it comes to athletic shoes, but here goes. I've worn these for 2 days of vigorous walking on pavement and like them a lot. I usually wear a 7.5 or 8, 38 in Euro sizing, and bought the 8, which fits well. They are slightly tighter than my old Asics, but in a way that makes me think they will eventually loosen up a bit. In any case, no rubbing or discomfort. I just ordered a second pair in the same size but with blue trim rather than the red....

Definitely suggest sizing up. I typically like a little bit of room so when I got these and they are arguably a little too small it is something to get use to. I love the their style and overall feel. I’ve only tackled shy of 30 miles in them but so far I’m happy and will likely purchase another pair.

Seems a bit snug when you first put on, but they feel perfect after a couple hours. I’m a size 5 normally & bought a size 5. 5.5 would have been okay too, I think for those who like more toe room. The colors are a little bright & wish more neutral earthy colors were offered for women. Overall, I’m happy to say I joined the ASICS club after a few close friends recommended them for years. ?

I read prior reviews and ordered 1/2 size larger and they fit great. I have always fluctuated between 8 and 8.5 so the 8.5 worked great.

I am so happy to have purchased this new GEL SONOMA5 shoes size 4.5 they fit perfectly to my feet and very cushioned. I feel they give strong support when I run. I really like this colour black with grey sole and mint green details. I tried to avoid pink/red most times. My normal shoes size is 36 or 3.5, the Asics shoes size 4 is a bit too tight. So I think it's necessary to go up one size to buy trainers.

Good quality shoe and reasonably priced. I enjoy my regular morning walks with this new companion and looking forward to good deals on Asics products for future purchases.

Great shoes, sadly had to return as they seem to come up small. Which is odd, as other Asics shoes have been on the large size in the past.

Comfortable everyday trainers. I use them to attend my local sports centre. I enjoy the use of colourways on these trainers this will be my second pair. Reliable company who deliver quickly. I am usually a uk size 6 but I need a size 7 in this model. I would recommend them.

So good I've bought two pairs - genuinely love this shoe for woodland dog walking and running on uneven terrain, feels a bit sturdier.

Superb shoes! I used them every single day and from day one these were cofortable and supportive! Size wise- I went for my usual size, I could have done a half size larger but no neccessary. I was gobsmacked at the price too! I will definatelly be back to buy more and let my friends and family know.

This is my second pair of asics trainers, and they haven't failed me yet. Fit perfectly and are the best that I have used. Have had other makes and they are no way as comfortable. The softness around the ankle and the sole of the feet make them a joy to wear while I'm doing my 5k Parkrun. As a 77year old these are things you look for.
