A bit snug for a wide width. At least at first. May relax a bit after wearing, too new and unworn to tell.
Love the color, love the style.

Narrow at first but after breaking them in they're very comfortable.

Love the shoe, but not the slight change with the edge of the insole. I got a horrible blister the first time I wore the shoes on the side of my heel. I thought it was my sock until it happened again the next time I wore them. I've never had to replace my insoles before with Asics, but that was the cause. I compared the insole with my 27's and you can feel the difference in the edge of it. Otherwise happy with the shoes.

The shoe feels very supportive and cushiony but also lightweight and not bulky. the issue is these run at least a half size small. I have had several pairs of asics in size 12 I am between an 11 1/2 in a 12 and I wore these about three times thinking it was just me but got a blister immediately and realized they are are small. I’m returning them and ordering a 12 1/2 I’m just grateful they carry a size that large.

This shoe is the ONLY shoe that fits my overpronated, banana foot. Imagine my dismay when the last two I've ordered no longer fit--too short! So I did an experiment: ordered the same shoe directly from Asics and compared it to the Zappo's version. The shoe from Asics is a perfect fit. The insert has a slightly difference logo and is maybe 1/16th inch longer. The flap is also wider. You can draw your own conclusion.

I like these. There not as comfort as my last pair of Kayanos. My last pair has way more arch and foot support. These still feel great but just not as amazing as my last pair.

Wide width felt narrow, wasn’t much room in the toe box. I’ve worn Kayano 26 and 27’s, the 28 definitely runs smaller. Not sure if a half size up would resolve the width issue. I’ll give the 29’s a shot when they are released but unfortunately have the send the 28’s back.

Overall the style is very nice. The picture does not indicate that the laces are actually more of a neon red. The toe box is smaller then I was looking for so I need to wear very thin or no socks.

The toe box is smaller then my 27, 26,25 etc. I have 8 previous pairs. I have wide feet so I have to open the laces wider. Rest is great. Good cushioning.

the fit was incredible. I wear Asics Gel Kayno because I have Plantar fasciitis and they are the only shoe that works. The only drawback is that the mesh gets holes in it

These shoes fit just the way I like snug on the instep with a roomy toe box and they provide great support. They felt great right out of the box.
I rated the shoes only four stars because the support just doesn't seem to last very long, even though I use the shoes for walking, not running . After two or three months, it almost feels like there's nothing between my feet and the ground. This is not particular to this model, however. None of the other shoes I've tried last any longer, and they don't fit nearly as well.
Note to ASICS: please stock more of these in women's large sizes. These are available only once or twice a year, so I often must buy men's shoes, which are too loose in the heels and insteps.

Fits well, nice and cushy under heel and toes. I normally wear an 11w but bought the 12 hoping it would fit. It did. The fuschia just wasn't bright enough for me so I returned them.

Usually I wear an 8 1/2 in a sneaker but this felt a little too short. This is a beautiful shoe and the ASICS sole is wonderful. However, it feels like I am walking on the outside of my foot and this is uncomfortable for me. Returning to try the size 9.

I ordered the one that's similar to neon pink color. I find the color dull. Could have been more brighter .

I really wanted these in navy blue and love the color combination, but they do feel tight compared to my old ASICS Gel sneakers.
I'd also recommend:
none other

Did not give as much ankle support for over pronation. I kept the Brooks Adrenaline that worked best for me.
