Material was good for less expensive Asics...really liked the wide width but need a size larger for length

Beautiful light weight sneaker. Unfortunately the arch did not work with my overly fussy feet.

I bought these shoes specifically for my morning walks. I wanted something with a bit of support but mostly just comfort and stability. I like the color (black and lilac) and the style. I originally bought my typical size for athletic shoes which was an 8 1/2. I returned those as they were going to rub my big toe when walking downhill. I bought this size 9 (even though I have no other shoes in a size 9) and am glad I did. I can walk uphill and downhill comfortably and have plenty of toe-room. I have a narrow-ish foot so the Medium width works perfectly for me.

Great looking shoe but SO small! I ordered size 7, but it seemed more like size 5. I will exchange them since Zappos has such great customer service. Otherwise, I would just return them.

I have always worn an 8.5 Wide in athletic shoes. These are at least a full size smaller than my size. I've actually been measured as an 8.5 Wide so I feel like manufacturers are shortening their shoes perhaps to save $$ on materials(?) Anyway had to return twice & now I'm ordering a New Balance to try.

Beautiful, well-made shoe. Longtime Asics fan. I'm between a 9.5-10 and purchased a 9.5, but wish I'd opted for the 10. Love all the options of styles and colors.

I normally wear a 9.5 and these are very tight so I should've gone up a half size. Otherwise, I love them, they are like walking on a cloud and the color is spot on what I expected. Shipping was extremely fast.

Lovely, well made Anne attractive. Usually purchase size 8 in this brand, but 8 and 81/2 were too short. Maybe a narrow in the toe region.

I so wanted to be able to keep this shoe. It was cute and had some nice support. Unfortunately it was too snug to be comfortable. It's got to go back.

Lovely appearance from my go to casual sneaker brand. Sadly, my normal size 8 was not long enough and the 1/2 size larger replacement does not feel any longer. Perhaps, a narrower toe block than my other pairs?

The only complaint, I have high arches and the laces were so short I had to tie them in a knot instead of a bow.

First couple of days I thought the might be a little small. I wore them about 3 times and they seemed to get more comfortable.

These were purchased as a gift for a relative, though I tried them on along side her. The heel has an unusual amount of padding that would rub. Otherwise, very well made sneaker in fun colorways!

Runs a bit small, I would suggest to get half a size smaller.
Other than that, nice design, comfortable

I'm an older former distance runner and always been pleased with Asics running shoes. I decided to try the Gel-Contend shoes for walking on paved surfaces specifically because this model offers a wide fit. I have been very pleased with these shoes and logged over 250 miles in the past 2.5 months. They hold up well and still as cushioned as when I purchased them

They ran a little small. Had a previous pair that fit perfectly, but the new pair was made smaller. Both women's size 12 and the identical running shoe
