ASICS are my go to daily shoe. I do use a separate arch support in them but then I can wear them all day!

Another great & reliable pair of Asics well-enjoyed by my teenage son! Going to purchase his 3rd pair - with the sizes going up each time, of course.

I've been wearing these for 18 months for running, walking, and weightlifting. They have a wider toe frame than most of the other wide shoes I've worn (a plus). The best part of these shoes is the cushioning in the toe box, which has helped me transition to walking with the front of my feet instead of my heels (and in turn to barefoot shoes).

Nice shoes but 10 1/2 (which I often get in shoes) felt just a bit snug. The size 11 felt perfect and nicely roomy for walking.
I've had the previous Gel Contend 3 which were one of my favorite shoes ... very light, comfortable and with airflow.

They are a little narrow across the ball of my foot, but I think that is true of the last few pairs as well and they have stretched out.

I usually wear a 9.5 but I opted for a size 10 and it fits perfectly. The most comfy sneakers I currently own, I usually wear them when I know I'll walk a lot.

These might run a half size small, but they’re great!

Great shoes.... simple with little insole, but it's adequate. I will probably upgrade the insole padding with an additional insole.

The shoes were as expected. I had hoped for more arch support. I am happy with the shoes and the experience.

I had to size up to 9 for this color but they are comfortable. Normally a women’s 10W and men’s 8.5M usually work but not in this style/color combo.

These fit perfectly as far as size, i usually get a 9.5mens US size, but i got a 10mens US this time and they fit perfectly. So i guess they might run a bit on the small side and buyers may want to size up a half size. The width on the left foot was perfect but the right runs a little tight. Could just be due to my particular feet. Not really any arch support to speak of, just flat bottom insoles.

Got them for my husband and after wearing them for about a week he says they are perfect. Was concerned bc he had never tried and extra wide shoe but I think it’s just what he needs for everyday wear. He has not worn them to the gym yet but for everyday wear they are a big thumbs up.

I ordered a 10 when i have been wearing a 9.5 since i was 16 and it fits absolutely perfectly. So i would guess you should get a half size bigger than you normally would.

Excellent shoe. I have had major foot surgery and need custom inserts. the contend extra wide is one of my doctors favorites. I buy several pairs a year, as one foot or the other is in a boot most of the time. So right now I have a brand new right shoe to wear when I get done with my current recovery.

I purchased these for my husband, he had the same pair previously so was glad I could buy the exact same pair. He plays pickle ball several times a week and really likes the comfort of these shoes. He likes the extra width which is good for his feet.
