Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Excite Trail

Fit is good. ASICS quality and comfort. Always happy with their running shoes and Zappos' service.

The fit was exactly as I like it. I buy my trail and running shoes a half size bigger. These were comfortable from the start. Light weight, and breathable.

Favorite style. Has good support. Could use a little more but better than a lot.

These are alright, but I just don't really want to wear this shade of purple with my blue jeans. They look a bit cheaper than I like. The colors are cool, but they just don't blend well with my jeans. That is something that cannot be determined until purchasing the shoes and seeing what they look like in real life.

These trail runners seem to fit all over well except the toe box is a little narrow (er) than the gel venture 8, which is my go to shoe for walking. They also don't have the support needed for a trail shoe but good for walking.

This shoe is good for narrow footed people, which is my foot. I like that it has a good grip for climbing over rocks and gravel. I wish it has more cushion. One reviewer remarked that you can not remove the inside cushion of shoe, this is true. I would have replaced with some sort of gel insole. I would also pay a bit more money if they would just splurge and put a cloud foam type pad in the shoe to begin with. The sole they have glued in is ok. I’m not sure how it’s gel? It doesn’t feel much better than Nike. And it’s nowhere close to Brooks. For $70 plus dollars I expected it to feel better on feet. Buuuuut damn they look good. I love the color. I wear most the time an 8.5 but had to buy a 9 in these for my adventures. Good shoes, not the top of the line but does well.

It is a well made pair of sneakers . Good for every day walking.

Good walking shoe

Great shoe

The shoes are very comfortable. I walk at least 10 miles every morning so I need good support in my shoes. I have a few pairs that I rotate and these will be a great addition to my list.

I was disappointed in the color and the fit. Just didn't feel like my normal Asics. The shoe was not pointed, but leaned that way compared to the other Asics I have loved over the years. The color as pictured online was green, and that was also the description. But the shoes are more of a teal. Just not me.

Heel slips and yet toe is too cramped so not sure how to answer the fit options below.

These shoes fit, but are just OK. I'm looking to find a replacement for the fabulous Kahana's that Asics decided to discontinue, and these ain't it.

toe box too flimsy

Hoped to enjoy these but they were too tight in my regular size.
