Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Venture® 9

I love Asics. The design is fantastic and they are the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. Here is the issue. I often log into the website, only to find the shoes I am looking for are not in stock. I am having better results looking for the same shoes on sites like Amazon.

Good looking shoe, performs well. Got them for walking, so far so good.

Worst sneakers I have every worn. I had to buy new ones. I would not take a new pair for free.

These are good looking shoes, but stiff. I should have returned them because I cant get them to loosen up. I originally bought them for trail walking and bike riding but we'll see if I continue to wear them or just take the loss.

Bought this pair for hiking/trail running and I have to say they performed really well! Tread was excellent, handled rocky, muddy terrain, good traction. Do your feet and toes a favor, size up either a half or full size, this was especially true going downhill.

Great fit, lots of support. I prefer the Gel-Ventures over any other shoe. Been wearing them forever.

The shoes are comfortable and have good tread. They fit true to size.

Awesome shoe this product has prepared me for the Hyrox event beautifully

Good looking and good fitting, very affordable as well

I have been wearing trail running shoes to play slow pitch softball for several years now. These are my second pair of ASICS and they check all of the boxes: great traction, extremely comfortable, generous toe box, good lateral support and good looking to boot. I highly recommend these to anyone!

These shoes are terrible for work. Feet and back in so much pain at the end of every shift since I started wearing them.

This is my 3rd pair of these and I keep going back!

Like the wide fit. Gives it more space in the front.

Great everyday walker, fits great, tread is solid.

excellent shoe, comfortable, fits the foot and of very good quality

Nice shoes wish there was some waterproofing walked through dewy grass socks got wet.;)

Very cushiony and comfortable. The Gel Venture 9s ran small on me, so had to go up 1 whole size.

I purchased these shoes for a trip to Norway and Iceland. I used these shoes to walk all over both countries, including the Faroe Island. Most of the trails and walkways were steep, not level and slippery. These shoes were fantastic! I felt very comfortable. They were also great was we had to "run" from terminal to terminal in several airports.

They make me feel loved. When I first put them on, they whispered in my ear that they loved me.

The Gel Venture is a great cofortable shoe. The fit is consistent and I can buy them without needing to try them on. I purchase a new pair online several tines per year and am never disappointed.

Insole uneven feels as if used. Left shoes feels 1/2 size smaller.

Worst customer service ever!! The shoe I got caused blister in my foot, so I called in to get them replaced. They did not have any option for that!!! Now, I have to just throw out a 70 dollar pair of shoe. Never buy from ASICS!

I have had these shoes for a couple of months and they feel very conformable. I use them everyday. I have wide feet which makes it hard to find shoes that fit and these do the job. The insoles are good also.

These sneakers get really sweaty and don't breath well. I have to dry them out with paper towels after a normal running session. It's pretty unacceptable for them to get so sweaty and slippery to the point I can't use them after athletics and have to wait a day for them to dry out. That is a huge design flaw in my opinion. You can literally see the sweat building up from the outside of the toe box area of the sneaker. The inside material around the ankle gets quite slippery and my foot literally slipped out of them when running quickly side to side doing a drill. Luckily, I didn't break my ankle. Again, another design flaw. The material around the ankle also a bit abrasive and sometimes annoys my ankle if I wear low-cut socks. I will mention that the shoes are pretty stylish. The laces and insert are definitely higher quality than the Gel Venture 8. Gel Venture 8 had a worse insert and laces that were way too thin and very hard to untie, but at least it didn't have the sweat buildup problem.
