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 won't be sorry

Comfortable right out of the box. Wear them on concrete floors all day. Get lots of compliments on them. Great price and so many colors.

Asics is a great brand, love these shoes. They are very comfortable. I used to wear an 8.5 regular width, but the last few years I've had to order the wide width. By making this change, the shoes fit perfectly every time.

These are great shoes for walking, jogging, or walks on the beach (they handle uneven terrain and stones with ease). I ordered them to replace an earlier version (7) of Gel-Contend's that were wonderful shoes that finally were worn to death! The new ones are just as good, same fit, same feel. I love Asics shoes! And I love buying from Zappos. Good service, quick delivery. And they stand by their products.

I purchased this Asics shoe for walking and it fit perfectly. Walking was smooth and there was no rocking forward as there was with other Asics shoes with a higher heel. I have bought ASICS shoes for many years and have recommended them to my friends.

They fit perfectly to size (9 wide) and are a great color. They arrived promptly. They accomodate my bunions and hammer toes.

I had light grey shoes from Asics that I liked for summer, but I wanted something black to wear in colder months. I had hoped to get some without the fabric on top, but apparently Asics doesn't make those. I found a pair of ALL BLACK gel-contend 8 to order. They have been good for me now as I have some issues with walking after spine surgery. I need to use these shoes when I need to be a bit dressy, wearing pants. I don't want shoes with flashy colors or stripes for such situations.

I've bought 4 pairs over the last year and can recommend these highly enough. Support, durability, comfort and the best for walking on hard concrete, rather than wearing Trekking soles which tend to throw your body out of alignment.

Fit and size are true. They are comfortable. I work on my feet all day and these have reduced my heel and knee pain.

These are the only athletic shoes I can wear with my arthritic toe joints. Nice roomy toe box and cushy soles make fitness classes so much more comfortable.

I absolutely love the Contend line. It fits my foot very well and the run of the shoe is great. My orthotics fit nicely. They reduce my pronation and make me feel less pain. They make walking more comfortable and steady for me.
