The shoe is well cushioned and great for walking or jogging. Plus, it looks great!

Replaced my GT1000 4 with this pair of Excite 8.
Ordered 4e width, which fit well for me.
While the width is a great fit, the size of the shoes runs a bit large; this pair 10.5 is very similar to my Adidas ULTRABOOST 5.0 size 11.
Love the stability of Asics' shoes, the comfortable design is also great.

I have been wearing Asics for several years now. Prob on 8-10th pair. The issue with this pair is the shoe strings are not long enough but to tie one loop when I get the shoes on.

After about a week, wearing them to work and walking on concrete all of sudden they made my feet ache. When I then went back to my other ASCIS of Contend 7 my feet felt fine with them. Don't know what changed on the Excite 8 but it made a real difference. Will be ordering the Contend 7 to replace these. No problem with them.

Only love ASCIS.

I have been wearing ASICS for 20 years. The search capability to find shoes for supination/underpronation was great. I am slower than I used to be and my mileage is less, but ASICS are still great for my knees and back.

, This is my second pair of this shoe. I love them for aerobics, Zumba, etc. The insole is removable and I use a Naot orthotic for extra arch support and there is room in this shoe for this. I'm guessing the support of the insole is fine for most folks, but I just need the extra arch in all of my shoes.

Size and, for me, importantly width (4E) were both perfect.

These are great walking shoes. Comfortable and light with excellent arch support. The laces are a bit short.

I had been running in hokas for a long time, but honestly the more you spend doesn't translate to the better the shoe. This shoe is very comfortable and so far has been a good daily runner.

Bought these for my hubby. He normally goes for the Asics Gel-Kayano but hates the price tag of them. He was happy to find these for less money and still as comfy.

This is the most comfortable lightweight shoe I've ever owned as a Medical assistant I am always on my feet and these are a lifesaver.
