Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Venture 8

I've been wearing these on runs and around town for the last week. They fit well from the first wear and are holding up well.

Excellent sneaker...true to size , width and comfort. I highly recommend.

Because the toe box tapers, I had to order a 1/2 size bigger than what I normally wear. Aside from that, the fit and comfort are outstanding.

Fourth pair of Asice, all good. Will repeat buy again.

The blue was a little darker than I expected, but I went back to review my purchase and I got exactly what I ordered.

Runs very small compared to all the asics I previously purchased

My son loves these shoes

My son loves these shoes! Fits great nice sturdy shoe for a busy 4th grader!

Doesn't fit - short.

Great shoe

These shoes fit great and are true to size. I have a wide foot and these are very comfortable. The cushion feeling in the sole is very nice. This show was exactly what I was looking for to wear for daily walks and hikes.

Great shoes with a good fit and support. The only downside is that they occasionally make a squeaking noise while I walk.

I need a wider sneaker, size 5E OR 6E. I ordered a different pair earlier tonight.

Not my fav by any means. The soles are not very flexible or soft, so they don't mold to your feet.

See my other review, got these in black and the blue. My wt is evenly distributed all thru the shoe. I could not find my size in womens, so the conversion chart for my 9.5 is a mens 8. NOTE IF YOU NEED WIDE, YOU ALSO NEED A WIDE EVEN IN A MENS SHOE. What I read about that on Google was correct. I tried the mens regular width thinking it would be bigger overall, but had to send them all back. Zappos is so great about returns wihich was so helpful especially during Covid avoiding shopping in person. Plus so much selection on Zappos instead of going to a few stores.

Great shows with a wide toe box

This is a great sneaker. My feet and wt feel balanced and level. Some sneakers push feet to the sides. I do not like the heel higher in many running shoes - good for running, but I need to for walking and the gym type exercise. Could not find a wide in womens, so I bought mens and if you need wide, you do need to get wide in the mens. Look up the conversion for womens to mens size. I thought the mens's would be wide enough because I assumed would be larger, but as I read on Google, most always need to get wide even in mens sizes. I wear a 9.5 is a mens sz 8. ZAPPOS IS THE GREATEST, I returned so many pairs of sneakers until I got the correct fit. Besides Covid, I just could not get out to a store so this was great. Boxes returned to my local UPS drop off is so handy. I like Mizuno fit, but could not get a wide in those and scarce 9.5. ASICS fit similar I discovered.

Very comfortable, shopped by price but don’t let that fool you.

I bought these sneakers for my husband and was really excited for him to use it. Today he put them on and they are defective inside his left shoe. Not sure but the insole is missing to the front of the bottom platform. He had to put the shoes right back into the box. I really wanted him to love these.

I wear Asics almost exclusively because I can buy a size 11 and it always fits. For this shoe, the site directed me to an 11.5 and I switched it back to an 11; wrong! These are a half size smaller than usual but they fit and feel good now that I sized up. Padding is adequate for walking and general wear but not a serious running shoe.

I live these shies. The support is great for when I lift weights daily.
