Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Venture® 7

Shoes were fine, and quite comfortable -- the right shoe was great, but the left shoe was defective and I sent the pair back. Also, these are not black shoes, but are a dark blue exactly as my older ASICS are. The only true black is the bottom of the shoe, and the toe-guard. .

I've owned this shoe for one month and have been running on dirt roads. I've logged about 100 miles in these shoes and the rubber sole is peeling away from the toe area already. See photos. The shoe is very comfortable and good for running on streets and trails. I would not buy this she again because of the issue with the sole peeling away from the toe area.

I really like the look of these shoes but although I ordered the size I normally order these shoes were a little short and the wide was not wide enough.

Great colors. Fashionable.

These shoes do not last long as far as cushion and support go. I wore them less than 3 month and my feet hurt, I would not recommend these.

Too tight overall and even worse with socks on.

I always wear Asics as they are comfortable and well made. The pair I received was not in an Asics box which leads me to believe that they were a return. They were comfortable but the left sneaker squeaked so they are being returned.

Turned out to be not very comfortable. The foot bed has little cushion and my feet got tired quickly.

Arch support = Non-existent , Padding= BAD. I now have pressure point pain on the bottom of my big toe...feels like the bone is bruised. Worst shoe I've ever purchased from Asics.

Reviews seem to say Asics run smaller than expected, so I ordered 1/2 size up and they were too big. But I'm not reordering, because the width was disappointing. I ordered Wides and my toes were still squished together.

I usually buy Asics because they have a narrower heel. These don’t. So my heel pops up when I walk and drags my socks down. I don’t want to have to use the locking method every time I put on sneaks for casual wear.

These sneakers were really uncomfortable and strangely, even though they felt too tight, my feet would slide around in them. The inner stitching along the top was not smooth with the result that my big toe would occasionally get caught on the seam. I started to despise the sneakers so threw them away.

NO arch support, NO heal support, NO contouring for pronation. Nothing on the inside of the shoe is worth the price. Very disappointed - have worn Assics for years, did not expect worthless insole. I probably could buy and put in a real insole - but why? They should be provided with the shoes... Returned. Laces were terrible too.

AT first I liked the fit of these shoes, but after just a month of wearing them I feel like they’ve broken down already. I wear these for work and the walks around the block with the dogs. I love ASICS and it’s my go to for every day wear and running shoes. I never ran in these though. I love the styling and the color but at the end of the day I’m disappointed in these shoes.

These sneakers were not a true wide and they felt a bit stiff on my feet therefore I am returning them

These shoes offer absolutely no arch support. Cute shoes but I had to return.

I have worn ASICS for years always a size 9. This was almost a full size too small. It also looked like an orthopedic shoe vs a athletic shoe.

Unfortunately these shoes did not have enough padding throughout the whole foot. For a long distance walking it was not comfortable.

Loved the colors: NAVY not black Can’t say how many ASICS I’ve owned over the years and only had 1 other this hard inside. Not the comfortable gel I love. These were the narrowest ASICS I’ve ever tried as well. My feet are getting more arthritic and this type ASICS was recommended. Don’t think so! Returning and Going for another model ASICS :-(
