These are very comfortable for a walk or run - Asics are my go-to and I like the GEL-Contend 9 a lot for just enough cushioning. I bought these because I have a pair in women's wide width, but wanted a pair that didn't have big white soles, and those were only available in men's. Turns out the men's 7.5 is exactly the same as a women's 8.5 wide. (Usually I'm a 6.5/7 in men's shoes, so this is a size up for me.) The style is fine, but I'd like it if there were more options in both men's and women's with a darker sole.

The shoes where the perfect fit. My toes are not cramped together like with other shoes. Very cmodo for long walks.

One of the most, if not the most comfortable sneakers I have owned in a long time. The only down side is the first pair I owned wore out a quickly. I'm a walker who walks at least two miles a day.

My husband likes asics for workouts. He walks and bikes. He says they're comfortable and have worn well.

Overall great shoes - appreciate just enough cushion and a really sturdy sole. Also they are breathable which is great. I wish they had a model with less drop (like 0 or 4mm) and a wide toe box - not the overall wide that you can select but specifically the toe box cause my little toe breaks through the mesh pretty quickly.

These are pretty good shoes overall. They are nice and wide as advertised and very comfortable. I would like for them to have a little more arch support but not a big deal. I would probably purchase again.

Have been wearing The Asics Gel Contend series for many years now and they have helped me travel the world comfortably and reliably. Love the wide toe area and they always look great too.

Easy to purchase. Feels great on your feet. Comfortable from the moment you put them on until you take them off. I have been wearing ASICS for over 10 years. Always a form of the gel. The gel-contend are great for every day wear.

Nice shoe overall but a little too narrow for me to get on without practically unlacing the shoe. I am hoping they will stretch out some as I wear them more. I have had them before and they were the same when I first bought them but they did stretch some!

These shoes have been my go-to for the last 3 years, and these new pairs once again surpass my expectations. Comfortable, good-looking, and with plenty of space for wide feet.

I'm so tired of foreign made products being sized for foreign people. These are not true size 11. My toes are jammed to the very front of the show. I had to order medium width because you can't seem to keep E in stock. And when I find a shoe I like, you discontinue it. Look back at my earliest orders. Ok, I want to return these and you can send me a size 12 unless you have half sizes which I know you don't. If these don't fit, we're done. I'll go to Walmart.
