I never regret purchasing a pair of Asics. And I couldn't pass this pair up because the Black Friday price was amazing!

I had previously ordered these shoes in a different color. These were on sale even cheaper than the previous pair. Theses are as great as the previous pair. The wide width is hard to find and a black pair is what I needed.

I'm quite happy. With this purchase I was replacing my ASICS GEL-Venture 7 that I had worn out so I wanted to stay as similar as possible to the basic shoe, with less concern for colors. This shoe fit the bill.

I usually wear a 9 - based on reviews ordered 9.5 --but it is actually a little too big. Have reordered in size 9. Keeping larger size as I used them for work outs and they were so comfortable but wanted smaller size for daily use.

Very comfortable shoe. This is my second pair of this Asics style and I am very happy. The shoes wear well and I don’t have a single complaint.

Recently started hiking/walking, sometimes on wooded trails, other times on paved/gravel surfaces. Got these to help with traction in the woods and leaves and love them. I did go up a half size, to gain a little length. Really like the comfort and traction.

Love the shoes but didn't think to look at color. I thought they were dark blue, but they are teal blue. Good for your feet though, the important thing!

These sneakers are very comfortable and work great with my foot shape. They are wide as promised and keep my feet comfortable all throughout the day walking around New York City as well as through my workouts.

I've been wearing Asics for years. These are so comfortable for walking, standing, or cardio days in the gym. I would not recommend for weight lifting merely because of the amount of cushion, which will not allow for proper stability.

I've worn the Gel-Venture 8 for years for trail-running but got off of them for a bit when they started running small--which I didn't immediately realize. This is why reviews help! When I didn't like the other brand I tried--or the size 7s I had ordered last year, I read the reviews on this shoe and found out that they started running small. I ordered the 7.5 and I would like to say that they fit perfectly but they're just close. It is still a great shoe and best trail-running shoe I've found so far but I have a narrow (and flat) foot and this shoe is just a bit wide for me. The length is good though. I just have to wear them with thick socks...

I can always count on Asics for a great fitting athletic shoe. It has been my 'goto' brand forever.

The dark blue, teal, and pink shoe is even nicer than pictured. Great arch support! Comfortable and seems solid. I usually wear a 7.5 with other brands but had to go with the 8 for this pair. Very excited to start using them!

I've never worn a 10. In Asics I know to go up a half size, but that wasn't enough for this shoe. I had to go up a whole size this time and those fit perfectly.

This is my second pair. The previous “wide” pair was wider but these still fit, although slightly narrower, and are equally comfortable.

width " W" and size 6 seems to be good. Like the solid " black "
I always use medical orthotics in my tennis shoes is why I order one seize up and wide width.
Good walking shoes. Thank you Zappos.
