This shoe was very long and made my foot look very long also. The color was pretty and I thought the style looked cute in the photo but I felt like I had clown feet. Definitely a different fit than any of the other asics I’ve worn.

I have worn Asics shoes for years and this is the first time, I've had a problem with comfort and fit. The edge of the shoe gave me a blister on the inside of my ankle bone, I kept adjusting the tongue on the shoe because it was uncomfortable. I finally changed the shoes to my old pair of Asics and I noticed that the tongue on this shoe is much thinner than my previous pair of Asics which is probably why I got a blister. I would not recommend this series of the shoe.

This is a follow up to a prior review. The shoe is marked as medium but is definitely a narrow. I carry a narrow and since all reviews said it was a narrow so I decided to order them. The toe box was comfortable as was the arch support area. The left shoe was perfect all the way round. The right shoe was too loose in the heel. I wore them in the house for a few hours and the heel was already becoming looser. If not for that I would have kept these shoes. I have been ordering ASICS for years and this is the first time I have ever had a problem with fit. ASICS is always my go to shoe for comfort and fit. Thank you Zappos for your great customer service.

These shoes were very stiff with little give. The style is super cute but not comfortable at all. I would only recommend if you have a very narrow foot.

Shoe was too tight over the instep but it isn't the shoe's fault. I really need to buy Wides, but rarely are they offered in size 4 1/2.

I love this model, first I bought size 9 with regular Width. However I felt smaller and narrower. I returned size 9 and reordered New size 9.5 EE with wide width.

hard to imagine this can be called a wide shoe. Asics has the best colors, just not for people with custom orthotics that need a real width size of W.

Very disappointed in these shoes. I almost always order Asics and when I do, I order a 10. I could barely get my foot in the shoe it was so narrow and there was no give because the shoe did not have any mesh, it was all plastic. These shoes definitely did not feel like they were a 10. I knew right away I was going to have to send them back.

I got these in wide to accommodate a minor bunion and even in wide, 1/2 size larger than my true foot size (to accommodate an orthotic) it was really tight around the forefoot. Material feels plastic and inflexible.

Not sure why, but these shoes run smaller than regular edition. And the fabric on the outside seems like a cheaper quality than the regular edition.

This caused SO much pain. They felt ok when I tried them on inside, but when I got on the court, I couldn't continue playing.

I've been a die hard fan and wearer of the gel resolution edition of Asics tennis shoes starting with the Gel Resolution 5. This shoes the Tokyo LE Resolution 8 has been a complete disappointment. They are difficult to put on and they have caused heel pain which was what they are designed not to do. I've gone back to wearing my Resolution 7 Melbourne edition just to give my foot a break.

I have very wide feet and these shoes were reviewed well. Nope they are not even close to what I would consider wide. I could not even get them on and when i responded with an email for a refund over 2 weeks ago i have heard nothing so far. Not every buying into the order on line and then try them out at home situation again. Disappointing every time.

I have been wearing ASICS gel resolution court shoes for years. I won't wear any other brand due to the stability, durability, and comfort of ASICS. This shoe, however, was a huge disappointment. Out of the box, I struggled to get my foot in the shoe. The toe box seems much narrower than my Gel Res 7's. There is a fixed, non flexible band that goes across the top of the shoe about a third of the way up the laces, which I did not see when ordering. The shoe was so uncomfortable with this band, I cut the bands off, hoping to reveal shoelace holes underneath. There are none. Even with the band cut off, the shoes feel an entire size smaller than any of my other ASICS court shoes, except in the heel where the shoe was too loose. I am an 8.5 and always order a 9 and have always had great results. I have a normal medium/B foot and these were so tight and uncomfortable that all I could think during my match was "these shoes are awful." Yes, I wore them figuring they would break in, but it wasn't worth it. If they feel tight out of the box, send them back!
