I lost weight over the last few months and my old tennis shoes were now fitted me big even with bulky socks. Ordered these Asics Gel-Venture 8 to replace them and I love my new running shoes. I went down a half-size and these fit perfectly. They give me great support and I am enjoying my walks and runs with less stress. Love these cause they offer great support so may feet and calves aren't sore after use.

I actually had to get a half size larger, which has never happened with this brand before. Very easy return and replacement.

I rated these shoes five stars yet I am returning them. Why? They are pretty shoes but they have a low arch support for what I need. So someone else they will be a perfect shoe but my left foot needs more support. That's why I am returning these shoes.

Gel Venture 8 shoes are wonderful. True to size and the D width makes for a comfortable fit.

I wear a size 10 but this size appears 1/2 to a full size too small.

I wear a size 10 in most shoes but for ASICS, I size up a half to 10.5. Been very pleased with at least a dozen ASICS shoes over the years and glad to have this one for casual sneakers. I have and recommend more expensive ASICS for daily running.

These are the only shoes I’ve found that let me walk long distances without pain. Nice, wide toe box and plenty of support.

Shoes fit nicely and look good most of all are quite comfortable. I have not had them all that long so how long they last, I can't guarantee but they do seem well constructed so we shall see. I am also impressed that they had my size in stock. If they remain as comfortable after a few months, I have more colors I want to add to the collection.

They're very sturdy and comfortable. These are my go-to gym shoes. I would also wear them for trail walking but I'm trying to keep them clean for the gym.

What a great shoe! If only the toe box had been rounder, I would be keeping them. Very high quality, color beautiful.

I had to exchange for an 8 which I’ve never worn in my life. I’m a true 7, 7.5 in tennis shoes. I think it was due to the toe box being a little narrower.

The shoes fit nicely and seem true to size. I am a pronator and find there is plenty of support to keep me from turning in. I am very happy wearing them in the yard and feel like I have my stability on uneven surfaces. The gel cushioning is great. We have no carpeting in our home and in the pottery studio. When I am on my feet a lot it makes a big difference in how I feel.

Brooks and Propet are great brands.

They fit perfectly - I’ve already worn them a few times. I like ASIC’s Gel sneakers.

Great comfortable shoe for wide feet! The support is good, the fit is perfect for my wide feet, and I love the purple color. I am a size 11 and I got a size 11, they are comfortable and can slip on and off. As with most gym shoes, the fabric top could be more durable. The cleat-like bottoms are great for traction outdoors but by the same token they often pick up clumps of mud in the divots.

Haven't ran in them yet, but I have a feeling they'll get the job done. Super comfortable and colors are fun. May also end up wearing these to work. I wear size 6.5.

These are squishy and still supportive! I have bunions and needed something to get me through Zumba class but allow for movement in the toe box, and these hit the spot :)
