Pretty comfortable and wide, but it still pinches my left toe slightly. I wish asics would come out with a barefoot line with that foot shape but regular asics cushioning.

I have bunions and have trouble finding shoes that are comfortable. These really fit the bill. I appreciate the good fit at my heels. As an added bonus, they're attractive.

I usually have to wear a 3/4 insert to support my arches but this sneaker feels comfortable enough to go without it.
I need good support and comfort at a reasonable price. French blue size 10 M.

I would have given this shoe a five star review , but it was too narrow, and I had to send it back. As soon as I took it out of the box, I knew it was going to be too narrow.

These sneakers look great, love the color and material. However, I ordered a size I normally wear and these were just too tight. I need to return.

I dont remember gel contend 8 being so uncomfortable. I have been ordering shoes from ASICS for a number of years and I was disappointed with these shoes. The arch support is very poor. Did you change something on these shoes??

These pinched my toes and I had to pay a restocking fee to get rid of them. I have religiously worn gel contend 6- these hurt my feet- super disappointing. I just cant buy shoes like this online without trying them on. For now Im doing well with Avia at 19.99 a pair.

They run a little big. I usually wear a size 9. I should've gotten an 8.5. Despite the size issue they are very comfy, cute, and durable. I will buy again.

Not only are the shoes laughably too small, even wide sizes, customer service is absolutely atrocious. I received an order number that was invalid for over 24 hours. If you need to cancel or change your order it must be done within the first 15 minutes following your purchase. Customer service was no help and I couldnt get ahold of anyone for 24 hours on the phone.
Not only did the shoes not fit based on the recommended shoe size quiz, you have to pay a $5 restocking fee if you return it via mail. The closes ASICS store is over 100mi round trip, obviously i wasnt going to drive 100 mi to return a pair of $80 sneakers.
Absolute joke, I will not be purchasing from the website ever again.

I bought these when I was in Tucson in October, the most comfortable tennies ever!! I am ordered the same exact pair now, and in another color as well.

These shoes are extremely comfortable to workout. I use them for outdoor running and seem to work fork for me. I've had them for one month and I have no complaints.

Great shoe ! Very comfortable. I was having trouble with my feet, they were hurting like crazy. A friend suggested ASICS. My foot pain was gone in a day. Buy these shoes, you wont be sorry

Light weight and comfortable to walk, and exercise in. The heel of the shoes decreases the pressure under the bottom of my while walking. The heel of the shoes provides air traction while walking, so walking in them all day is so comfortable especially for traveling. I love these shoes because they are light, the heel of the shoes provides a lot of cushioning and support while walking, running or exercising. Good value for money. Got them on sale for $49.99.

lightweight! very comfortable right out of the box. i removed the insoles to put in my custom orthotics and they fit great. wide width still seems a little tight across the mid foot and tongue area but i'll just keep the laces loose. i love the all black color, will work great for everyday wear.
