Customer Reviews ASICS Gel-Contend 9

I ordered the shoes on 1/6. Never received them. Called several times. The last time I called they argued that the shoes were delivered somewhere in Pennsylvania. I live in Charleston SC. Never been to Pennsylvania. Had to call twice to finally get a refund. Lesson learned.. Zappos next time.

Great looking shoe that fits true to size at a wonderful price.

For me this shoe was extremely tight plus I have a high instep. It was not comfortable for me. Someone with a smaller foot might find this shoe satisfactory.

Great shoe, as a HS Basketball Official shoes play a major role in our health and performance. ASICS has always been excellent.

They fit well, but Im not a fan of the new design that has a thick white sole that takes up a third of the of the shoe.

Great shoe particularly if you have wide feet with a narrow heal.

My 14-year old son is very picky about his shoes. When he was a baby, he would prefer Puma and Adidas. Then, he started wearing Sketchers and, then Nike Air (which I did not like because to me they look like old man shoes). I ordered Asiacs after reading about them first on a whim, and he thankfully loves these. Right size, right fit on a first try and easily washable as well, which is a plus for an active teen. I decided that next time, I will try the brand myself.

I little tighter than the last pair I bought 3 years ago - the gel is good and I can walk all day in them

Average shoe for the money, but very poor insoles...no arch!

Only had them a few weeks but so far the sneakers are comfortable

Bought these about a week ago and tested them out today on my usual 2 hour run and I was impressed! The quality and craftsmanship is really good and the shoes are extra comfortable I have big feet so I sized up a size and a half (because I didn't know there was a wide option) but these fit great and make my feet not hurt from running.

Not too good and not too bad. The soles feel harder than the previous pair I had and after wearing them all day my feet hurt a little. But they are sturdy and good for walking and they have a very nice look to them.

One shoe arrived damaged. I am returning the pair.

I walk every day up and down steep hills, and these shoes are tops for comfort. I bought one pair in a store and was very pleased with them, so I went on line and bought another pair. I've always favored Asics but couldn't always get the right shoe and size. The only thing I'm disappointed with are the available colors, I don't favor all black or blue but the alternatives were unappealing. Still, fit and comfort are what really matters.

Got for my son who likes these shoes, along with the best-selling insole. He is training for a marathon. Per the internet these aren't the greatest shoes for a marathon but he likes them and they are quite affordable. Find shoes that work for you, if everyone liked the same shoes there would be only one kind.

Used Kayanos for years for running, but this is a much better shoe for walking, less stress on hips, wear them all day at work without aches or pains

great shoes they fit like a glove and are so comfortable

Comfortable shoes ,like it. One of the shoe lases ( left ) is defective, I would appriciate if you can repalce the lases. I would gladly recommend to all my friends.

These were cheap and uncomfortable. Poor support and disappointing.

Perfect fit. Breathable and flexible. Nice shade of blue as well.

Very comfortable shoes, have two jobs and be walking all day

Plush cushioning I like it for walking. Asics makes quality products. The Contend line is probably my favorite of all the asics iterations.
