Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Contend® 7

Just got these today and they look and feel great. The toe box is nice because it is a bit wider than the others I tried.

These shoes fit pretty much like every other pair of Asics tennies that I've ever owned. I don't even try other brands, because Asics have never let me down. I ordered them in grey, but was disappointed when they arrived and had lavender side details and laces. In the Zappos photo the laces looked white. Oh well, I suppose I'll get used to the lavender color eventually.

Like the color, the size was good for my orthotics - only problem was that I got holes in the material near big toes. I've read other reviews and I guess this is a common problem with this brand & model sneaker.

I ordered an half size larger. They fit perfectly

i usually wear a 9 but in this syle i need to go up an half size

Love the style and the cozy sole but definitely small and for a narrow foot. Sized up and got a wise version that works.

Very narrow although says Wide width. Glad I saw reviews beforehand on this. It feels more narrow than wide.

Size was too small but the comfort and the cushion around the heel was fabulous. I will have to get a wide and stay with the same size as the toe area was too tight and uncomfortable.

We ordered the wide width in these but they were definitely not wide by most standards, they were pretty much a medium width compared to all of the other wide width shoes we ordered to compare.

Loved the shoes, but too tight on my big toe. I wanted to return to get the same shoe, just half size larger.

These are very comfortable shoes that fit well and offer good support.

Not enough support for my very flat feet. Cute style, though….

These are very comfortable sneakers even for cranky feet with a plethora of issues (cuboid syndrome, sesamoiditis, plantar fasciitis, bunion). I am a size 7 in sneakers, however the length of these were about a 1/2 size too short. The length of 7.5 is fine, except the toe box is extra extra roomy (AND my ball of foot is a little wide). So I'd say these run a 1/2 size too short but the width is a smidge wide. If you have a narrow foot, I'm not sure these would work for you.

The fit is great, the laces seem to take up a lot of the shoe but being black it isn't noticable on this shoe

The shoe is just a tiny bit too short-it feels like it is a quarter size too short.

The Navy/Gold 8 W fits like a 7 - 7/12 M. I gave the Grey / Pink 8 W five stars and would have given more if possible. The Navy though - my toes and feet are scrunched. I spent lots of time adjusting laces, etc. I wore them a full day at work, then walked the track 2 miles. I really like them and wanted to give them a chance. Nothing changed. They are good looking, well made. The size on tongue is correct. I wonder if they are made in different factories.

The shoes are really very good, but because of my club foot, the right shoe tends to turn over more than my other shoes have done.

I really wanted these shoes to work. They look great! I usually wear a 5-51/2. I definitely needed a 6 in this shoe. They were a little stiff feeling and not as much cushion as I needed. I’m 66 and at that age my feet need more padding.

terrific overall, but right foot feels a quarter size short...

The two things I like best is the super soft insole and the fact the shoes are so lightweight and comfortable.

I ordered my usual size, but these run half size too small. These sneakers run narrow, so if you have wide feet they may not fit. I will try the half size up and hope they fit as I like the style and brand.

I decided to try these to retire my my older asics (Cumulus, I think?). These are far more rigid and firm in the sole. They also fit smaller in size and width, despite going up a half size from my old shoes.
