Very comfy shoe, bought for on road use, said it's for trial running but works great for me on & off.

I definitely put these shoes to the test as a postal worker even more so since COVID hit. They are durable and have become the only shoe I will wear. I purchased the blue ones to wear when I'm not working. Since COVID we had no rest and mandatory overtime!

Fully waterproof, a great trail shoe and not even out of place on the road. Very comfortable & great value for money.

Great service arrived quickly and good fit. Great general purpose shoe to keep your feet dry. Not as much cushioning as the fujitrabuco but significantly cheaper.

Much better looking in real than in photos. Very good grip and comfortable foam padding. The trainer feels snug on the foot and well padded, so definitely buy half size bigger. I'm usually 43.5, got 44 and it's perfect.

These sport shoes bring you to the next level. Confort and connection to the terrain is what you get with the GEL - SONOMA 5G-TX

Good for narrow feet too. Best part is the back is hard enough to more easily slide into them without needing your fingers. Sole and toes are very durable as well.

Very waterproof as needed during the UK weather we have suffered this winter but also very comfortable and great grip in muddy conditions.

Good looking shoe! My husband has slightly narrow feet and they fit him very well! He hasn’t started running yet. But he loves the fit!

Good value trail running shoe that usefully doubles up as a comfortable and waterproof walking shoe for day hikes. Only used once, but the Goretex lining seems to work well and kept my son's feet totally dry when running in wet conditions.

Great trainers! I'm a postman who walks 18k a day, 6 days per week. These trainers have been in torrential rain and held up! Super comfortable!

Absolutely great nuy, would highly recommend to anyone. Love how light they are with great traction too. Feel like my feet have loads of space to breath without being loose. Keep up the good work Asics.

To break in I've only used for a couple of road runs up until now (10K & 15K) and am very happy with product - now looking forward to wearing in an upcoming cross-country event. TIP: The perfect fit for me was UK 10.5 - whereby I am usually a UK 10

My usual running routes take in a bit of forest (mixture of bridleway and earthy path) and the British winter has unsurprisingly turned much of the trails into mud baths. The Sonomas hold up well in the mud, affording good grip on everything I've thrown at them so far. Don't get me wrong there's still some slippery sections but it's much more controlled and a world away from my road running shoes which I took through the mud once (and only once...) The goretex is a lovely addition, my feet stay warm and dry and let me hose off the mud off the shoes without soaking my feet I run a couple of km on road to and from the woods and the outsoles are flexible enough to not make this a chore and are not so knobbly as to be slippy on wet asphalt. They offer good ankle support and the toe box is firm enough to withstand tree roots.

Fantastic shoes. I normally use the non-GTX version of these but given our glorious weather, I was prone to getting home with cold, wet feet. Not anymore! Super comfortable, neutral, trail shoe that also looks good (subjective of course) and comes at a great price.

These trainers do exactly as they're made to do. I've run across wet beaches and over the hills in wet weather and not once did my feet get wet. They're comfortable, waterproof, and more importantly grip well underfoot.

Really excellent walking shoes, like the other Asic gels I have bought. I walk 12,000+ steps a day and these are perfect. The previous pair lasted about a year, given the wear I put on them that is terrific. They had pretty much zero breaking time.
