These are strange! I usually wear gel nimbus but these were recommended as better. Not true. These seem to have extra support under the forefoot and heel, leaving the arch feeling suspended with less under it. I’m sticking with the gel nimbus!

I read that these shoes are lightweight- and they are. I sized up because my new orthotics are thicker and my high arched feet need the space. They also need the lace up style for opening the shoe a far as possible to slip my foot into. My toes have the space they need in this style and size. Haven't used them for workout level walking yet ... recovering from a stress fracture.
I'd also recommend:
New Balance.

Nice running shoes that is lightweight and responsive. I don't have the same issues with blisters that I do with other running shoes. Beautiful Periwinkle color.

Best shoe ever. The asics Novablast 5 and Novablast in general is my all time favorite running shoe and I always wear them for my races. The upper on this one along with lighter color for hotter days is great! I tried them out on two runs and then a 10k race and not a single red or painful spot on my feet! I wasn’t thinking about them at all while running other than wow these shoes are great! I wear a half size up from my true size. If I could only have one pair of running shoes this would be it. They are probably on the narrow side but fit me perfectly.

Great for, nice bouncy rebound, great grip to the road. A good secure fit with a bit of stretch for comfort and easy slip on.

This is my third ASICS purchase. This model feels lighter, more cushioned, more bouncy than other models. I’m not a long distance runner, but I use it for low distance, intervals and circuit training at the gym indoors and it’s my favorite shoe so far.

These are the most comfortable ASICS I have ever bought. I can’t wait to wear then outside after this horrible weather is over.

Moved from years of Hoka and had very positive experience with a long walk. Excellent arch support (very high arches) and cushion-balance-heel to toe rock. I am a toe box snob and these have plenty of room. Highly recommend. Love the pink and black combo.

I have a narrow foot and usually wear Brooks. Unfortunately, Brooks and ASICS offer a very limited color selection and I get bored wearing the same shoe over and over before a new color option is offered. I reached shoes that run narrow and this was mentioned. Happy I ordered! Very cushiony (took a minute to get accustomed) and offers great support.

Best Asics pair I have ever gotten. Finally ordered 1/2 size larger and it is perfect. Feel very secure with each step and soooo comfortable. Ordering another pair ASAP to have in reserve!Spi
I'd also recommend:
I need a brand with a wide toe box. So far, Asics is it. Sometimes Brooks.

True to size. I enjoy the wider toe box as I have a bunion. Cushion is great without losing stability. Tongue and laces have some stretch so even when tied tight, they have some give.

Best Running shoes ever!! These are by far the best running shoes I have ever owned. They have great cushion support and give you a bounce effect and soft landing! I'm usually a Hoka person but these NovaBlast made me convert to Asics!

GREAT SHOES, RAN BIG ON ME.
I have multiple versions of this shoe. All of them are size 9. Never had an issue. This version ran 1/2 size too big on me. They felt so good on my feet. I'm reordering in an 8.5.

These are really comfortable and springy. They are my usual size in Asics, which is 1/2 size up from my dress shoe size.

Amazing sneaker. I have only ever worn Ryka due to my narrow heel. I decided to try these. These fit amazing! So comfortable. I use my orthotics in them. I will definitely buy again in other colors.
