Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Venture 8

The shoes were worn one day and the sides started to unthread and blow out!

Arch support is very important, this shoe has almost no support.

I have a narrow foot and I buy a 1/2 size larger always, for toe room. When I read the other reviews and saw that most people said they ran narrow and tight, I figured I'd be ok. They are extremely narrow and they run a whole size smaller in the length for me. I had to return them, and look for another Asics shoe.

This clearance product was clearly labeled with the wrong size. I have bought this exact item before and size 9 fit fine. This item was a size 8 or smaller. I could not return because a clearance item. So I gave shoes to charity.

I've been buying size 8 for years, these were not 8s. they fit my daughter who wears size 7. The box and shoe were labeled size 8

I am very sad I am always a size 7 and got these and my toes are smushed up at the top and I can’t wear them and can’t return them ?

were too snug in the toe

Returning because these are not built like the last 8 or 9 pairs of asics I’ve used over the years. Pinched my pinky toes and no cushion

This was terrible, no arch support, much narrower than marked (Medium width) and the 8.5 size felt like a 7.

I have worn these shoes for many years. This pair is too narrow and is an uncomfortable fit. It was not obvious until I was well into a longer walk

I purchased the Venture asics after wearing asics gel kayano for years for running. I was looking for a more affordable, versatile sneaker that would transition well from pavement to trail, primarily for walking. The tread on the venture style is the only positive thing about this shoe. The fit is terrible. Sizing is consistent with the gel Kayano, but the Venture has a lot of padding with absolutely no structure to it. You couldn't pay me to wear these.

I always wear a size 8 with this same sneaker in the past (I am a true 7.5) This size 8 was crunching my toes, but what made it really uncomfortable was the fact that the inner material has no give, it is hard and stiff. My older pair (exact same make and size) is softer inside and flexible.

I usually wear an 8.5D, but the 9D was both too small and too narrow for me.

I got these for my sister size 9 wide but I tried them on and I'm an 8.5. They were to small on me! To small, not wide, no support and not comfortable.

The shoe has so much padding in the back that it shoves the foot forward and into the front end of the shoe.

Did not get my order

The shoe stiches have come off. ASICS used to be a reliable brand. Poorly made. I feel like it's a total waste of $.
