Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Excite® 8

I have not liked any Asics shoes since the Excite 4. These are the only ones I like, and I had to go up a half size. More cushiony than the older ones and good arch support. My only gripe with these is that Asics has shortened the laces! No idea why they would do that-- but it's hard to tie them comfortably. Overall, a really good fit and really comfy.

Great fit and comfortable. A lot of gel cushion which I love.

Best shoes!!

The shoe is great for the gym. That is typical of Asics.

I got these for a good price on sale and they are comfortable for long days of walking and standing. I like the navy color as a nice alternative to my usual brown and black shoe.

The shoes feel great. I will know more after I wear them to the gym a few times. A Podiatrist recomends Asics shoes for women.

Asics are my holy grail comfort shoe! I am on my feet all day and I have no issues with rubbing, pain, slipping, etc. I think the fade on the sole looks nice, I hope it holds up as the shoe wears.

Perfect fit and so comfortable. I have a wider foot and did order the wide in this shoe, which is hard to find. Would recommend.

Overall very happy with these shoes and great price. Springy in the step

I usually wear a 4 1/2 which is impossible to find in women’s size. These ASICS fit great.

Felt great.

Finally I found shoes that work well for my narrow feet. I’ve worn New Balance for 25 years but the new 880s just didn’t fit. I’m an 8.5 narrow but the 8.5 medium works well for me with the ASICS gel excite 8. This is my first pair of ASICS and I’m so happy. They feel so much better than the latest NB shoes and at half the price. I’m thrilled!

Exactly the shoe I was looking for.

Very comfortable, supportive, and breathable. Bought these for my daughter who is on her feet all day at a Middle/High School and Asst. PE Teacher. She starts off the day with drop-offs parking lot duty, off to walking laps, lunchtime duty twice, more laps, and back to parking lots. On your feet outside in heat or rain, ASICS are the only ones she can/will ever trust to wear. They last, don’t hurt, support her feet right, and the only brand recommend and approved by her podiatrist.

So comfortable and supportive for my daughters feet. ASICS are the only brand that we have found to fit and support her feet well. She wears true to size. These shoes really last as she is in them working hard with middle and high schoolers doing PE all day long, on her feet. She had foot surgeries earlier in her youth, a lot of foot pain. Podiatrist told us to buy ASICS and we have been pleased ever since. Thanks Zappos for the selections and quick deliveries.

Great quality but they felt a half size long. I Bought 2 pair & got used to length quickly so I just kept both : )

Great shoes

It was exactly what I needed

Second pair of these I have purchased ! The fit is great, and next to impossible to find in stores. I need a women’s 101/2 wide, and these fit perfect!

everything was good

These sneakers fit true to size, I’m an 8 1/2. I have wider feet but got the regular width and had plenty of room. The arch support was comfortable and the fabric soft. My back doesn’t hurt now when walking for long periods.
