Pretty much the same as the "7" model of these. I'm a 71 year old guy, mainly just do plenty of walking with these. Put a pair of average Dr. S insoles in to supplement the ones that come with these ASICs. Have the extra wide version.
Extremely comfortable from the time I put them on and the value is obvious. Like this blue color and they don't look ridiculous. :)

So far, so good -- I've used ASICS for years, walking -- at speed -- with our dogs. I have short, wide feet that splay out to 3E in dress shoes, 4E in athletic. My last few pairs were a different model and lasted 4 months (300+ miles on the street with two 50+-lb dogs and all that), but had a tight toe box. This set, lovely big toe box I'm still so happy with. Let's hope the sole/base lasts.

Asics are the only shoes that fit my feet perfectly. I have a wide foot and while there aren't as many options in wide as i would like I'm still able to get wide shoes that are still stylish (my kids don't make fun of them) at a reasonable price.

I ordered this shoe in the past, and this is the successor to this model. They are very light and comfortable. My only complaint is that they wear in heel prematurely.

These are very nice shoes. I bought them for my 10 yr old with big feet. He loves to be active and runs all day long. Hoping the quality holds up.

The fit is great and the sizing is accurate. The styling is typical for an ASICS product - I really like the color scheme!

These sneakers are very comfortable especially when I'm going for my walk. There some what stylish also. I do wish the toe box was a little more roomy. The extra wide width is very nice.

Great for walking. Been using these for several years, through version updates, ordering replacement pairs whenever I wear them out. Nice wide toe box. Comfortable. Good selection of colors too.

I've worn Asics Gel Contend FOREVER and I've been the same size forever. They must have changed the style of this shoe because now I take a full size smaller. Nice shoe though.
