I wear these almost every day. Very comfortable for all of my needs (no, I'm not using them for running shoes). The color goes with almost everything too. Thinking of buying another pair in a different color.

I have been wearing Gel-Contend 7 and liked it a lot. I think the 8 is just as comfortable and will wear as well as the 7. I like the wide toe box for my foot.

These ASICS are "Barbie Pink" and that suits my narrow-heeled, higher-arched 8.5 M daughter's feet just fine! She loves the fit, the support, and even the color. A winner and ON SALE!! Thanks Zappos!

Great fit. I stared with gel-contend 3 a few years ago and buy new ones every year. Happy to see some colors in wide width!

These shoes do not provide enough support for dancing. My feet hips and knees hurt. I bought 2 pair and cannot wear them. Too uncomfortable

Bought them because Contend 7 are no longer being made. They have less support than the old ones

I had another pair of Asics shoes. Order the same size but the new pair are slightly larger.

These were very comfortable out of the box, and I thought they'd work out, but after wearing them to walk a few times they are just too snug in the toe area for my comfort. I do wonder if a half size up would help, but they just seem more narrow than my feet need (I don't have an especially wide foot, but like extra room in the toe).

The shoe is very comfortable. I walked a lot on these shoes and my feet didn't hurt. They are advertised wide, but I felt they were still on the narrow side. It was a standard wide and not the extra wide.

My sister and I have been buying ASICS since 2012 and this its our first pair that we have absolutely hated. Shes continuously gotten blisters from them and Ive worn them a few times but the day after wearing them my right foot is in absolute pain. ASICS missed the mark on these shoes. Will have to try another shoe

Great shoes! Worn asics for decades. Shoes themselves are 5 stars! Dealing with asics customer service was definatley 0 stars. What a total nightmare. I'll never, NEVER, buy from the website again. I'll stick to in person stores and other websites.

I love ASICS. They are the only brand I wear. They are super comfortable and I love the options. Had a problem with shipping but I reached out to ASICS and they took care of it right away.

Fit & size accurate, but the material feels thinner and more flimsy than previous pairs.

Love Asics, but this style runs quite small, tried reaching out to Customer Service but no answer. So an overall thumbs down.
