Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Venture® 9

I was reading reviews of Gel-Venture 9 that it's not durable enough, I use it for work for a month now and it feels good and seems durable as well.

Love these shoes! Work, home or on the trails, theyre on my feet!

Great shoes! Excellent fit and they feel sturdy. I always recommend trail running shoes to anyone on their feet.

Bottomline, well made shoe that feels great and looks good.

I have always been an Asics guy. I have been using your shoes since collage, exclusively Asics for running and every day use. No Adidas for me, No Nike either. Well, with the last pair, I have noticed a change, the shoe did not fit as good as it used to, the quality was somehow off. This running shoe was rubbing my Achilles hill area all of the sudden. Not too terrible but this was never a problem. And the shoe looked like it was 2 years old after 6 months. Now with the latest purchase I have noticed that the treads are not as strong, wore it every day for couple of weeks and the shoe is worn already. Quality is not there anymore, and even the elasticity of the shoe does not feel right. I did not gain weight, so it must be the shoe. I am disappointed. Not sure if my next running shoe will be Asics....

Good fit for me Continue to be quality I have run many trails with ASICS These shoes continue the tradition

Not as comfortable. Feels uneven when you wear it.

I use the Venture for the gym and hiking. As I have I wide foot, they feel great. Something changed from the 7s to the 9s and not for the better though. They are still my go to shoe.

I trusted that I could order these shoes by size and width by mail without first trying them on. It worked! After about a week and days in gym I love them. Great price and arrived on time.

Good shoe for the money. I wish it was better padded for the wear, but the overall sole is rugged and is a good fit.

size runs small. I usually wear 11 extra wide and have found ASICS locally in 11 extra wide that fit well but these online ASICS in 11 extra wide were too small overall.

ordered the same size and width and they are too small & uncomfortable... why would the size change between models?

Comfortable fit and nice looking shoe. Venture tends to have a wider toe box but these are not quite as wide as some.

So far my son likes these for cross country running. Seem like they will be durable and clean up well

Recovering from a broken toe other hiking footwear feel constricting, tried the Gel Venture 8 and it is just the job: Supportive yet comfortable with room for my toes to breathe. So i went ahead and bought the 9 version.

Great shoe. Great price. Ordering was easy and shipping was fast.

Before replacing the insoles these shoes were extremely thin and hurt to work in. After replacing them they are decent, but still not as comfortable as other brands I have previously worn.

I bought a pair of these shoes in a store in a different color. They were so comfortable and supportive that I needed this color as well. It was so convenient to go directly to the ASICs website as I knew the sizing, fit, and support would be the same with these. Theyre my new favorites.

Sizing is off from other brands who use size scale. cushionn is satisfactory. Size not visible in tongue of shoe . Had to believe box.

I have wide feet and it fits great. Heel height is good to. Good for trail walking. Supportive arch for my flat feet.

I purchased these shoes on May 14, 2024 and three weeks later, the material was wearing down significantly to the point where I don't even wear them for any outdoor activities anymore. The first two weeks, the fit was great, but soon thereafter, my feet were starting to hurt after a mile walk because the inside sole was wearing down quickly. I only walk 3 miles a week so I'm frustrated that Asic can't do anything for me. I called Asics on 6/19/2024 in hope of getting some credit or potential refund and I was told "since you've worn the shoes, we will not process a return or provide any credit" - I then responded "So you're telling me I purchased a pair of shoes that were supposed to be good shoes and a customer is telling you the are horrible and there is nothing you can/will do about it?" the representative replied "unfortunately, yes". With that being said, this will be the last purchase I ever make with Asic!

More comfotable than the Venture 9 and the upper portion of the shoe is a lot more durable than the V8.

Comfortable, fits well, breaths, nice design, offers good support.

They're Awesome, very comfortable on pavement or trails.
