Laces are too short to tie the shoe. Tongue constantly slides over. Much tighter than other ASICS shoes I own in the same size.

This is my only brand of running shoes! They are hands down the most comfortable. I got through my shoes pretty quickly so always looking for a decent price...win win

This shoe did not work for me. It just didnt feel right on my foot. Ive been wearing Gel-Contend 8, which fits well, and is very comfortable. I bought them primarily for walking and going to the gym. Ill stick with the 8s for now.

Not the cutest shoe, but they're really comfortable. I may have to get an arch insert b/c I have fairly high arches, but they should work well on my long walks.

So far returning to the Contend, even if not the newest version, is a 100 improvement on the Nimbus I purchased to replace my last Contends. My feet and ankles don't collapse inwards as the Contend has actual structure to the body/upper of the shoe as opposed to the Nimbus which is like wearing a sock with no support. I love the colour and also bought the light grey with purple flash. Very happy with my purchase.

Incredibly comfortable for me; on my feet during most of my work day. Very little if any foot pain at end of day.

I bought these shoes to walk all day while in Paris. They did not disappoint. Yes my feet would get tired, but these shoes helped me walk miles a day.

Comfortable. I have a wide foot and this was a good fit. I don't use them for running. The color is as shown, a minty green. I like Asics in general, don't get me started on the pricing, but whoever decided their color, they should consider more blues. I would purchase this shoe again, BUT in a blue.

I bought these shoes for clinicals as my Hoka shoes were hurting my feet and they have been great. No issues at all.

Super comfortable and light! I don't love a very thick sole, and I feel like this had a great balance between cushion and weight.

I especially like these sneakers because they are a true 11.5 and run narrow. They fit perfectly.

Perfect fit. The wide size and instep fits like a glove. The support is far better than I have found with other brands, where I have had to return other brands shoes. Excellent buy.

I bought these and they are so uncomfortable. In my first wear my ankle bled all over the shoe ruining the look. It makes me really sad cause I can't return.

They were awful. Too big and not enough cushion for a running shoe - returned. Your 7s are the best with the 9s being the worst. Figure it out - from a daily runner.

Very comfortable, but they have no support and unfortunately, the inner sole is not removable to accommodate my orthotics. I will keep them for short term, casual wear.
