ASICSWomen's Gel-Venture 9 Running Shoes
J**.
Hooked on Asics shoes. Others I have tried don't compare. Comfortable, supportive, and last.
Going back a number of years ago, I wore only white running shoes (called gym shoes at the time). Christmas of 2016 my husband surprised me with a pair of Asics shoes in primarily coral. My first reaction was "Not white! Oh My God, they have to be returned.", but I tried them on so I didn't hurt my husband's feelings, and they were so comfortable. I am retired now, but when I worked at a job, I always matched my shoes and purse to my outfit. I discovered these shoes matched some of my t-shirts. The next day, I ordered a pair of Asics shoes in primarily red. Since Christmas of 2016, I have never worn white shoes again. Now I match my t-shirts to my shoes and even match my socks to my shoes. Incidentally, I still wear the original shoes from 2016, 8 years ago. They are starting to look worn, but they are still comfortable, and I still wear them.I have since bought Asics shoes in a number of different colors to match my t-shirts. I bought this pair in black/soft berry to replace a pair I bought in 2017 that are black/purple. The darker berry color is very similar to the purple in my old shoes. I still wear the older shoes, but wanted something that didn't look worn when I go out.I also bought the blue expanse/light sapphire shoes in this style, which I also love. As we all know, blue can be in different shades and have different tints. So, it can be difficult to match blue shoes to an outfit. Most of these shoes are a dark, true blue, and the accents are light blue and royal blue. So, these shoes would go with most shades of blue. These are now my favorite blue Asics shoes. The colors pictures on the Amazon page are exactly the colors of the shoes you get.As always, both of these Asics shoes are comfortable and fit perfectly in my normal size. The tops of these shoes don't look so much like mesh, which I like. I have tried other brands, but they have never been as comfortable and supportive as the Asics shoes, nor do they last as long. I wear this style and others in the Asics shoes all day, gardening outdoors, cooking in my kitchen that has a hard ceramic floor, and working on my basement garden on a concrete floor. My feet never feel sore or tired at the end of the day. I also like that these shoes "breath". Whether I am wearing wool blend socks in the winter or thinner socks in the summer, my feet are always comfortable. Personally, I would not waste my money on any other brand, nor would I subject my feet to uncomfortable shoes.I do recommend these shoes without hesitation. I hope this review was helpful for you.

Fits a narrow fit nicely
I’ve read reviews from women who appreciated that this same shoe fits their wide feet well, too! So there you have it. ASICS ALWAYS fits my long, narrow feet. And these are particularly attractive. Strong tread for trail walking/running/hiking, and a well-placed arch support (for me). Laces snug them up well. I really like these and am glad I purchased them. Out of the box comfortable. Putting on ASICS feels to me like welcoming an old friend. They’re just familiar and comfortable

Good fit
These fit well, a true wide width with a comfortable toe-box and instep. The color is nice. They aren’t as cushiony as other pairs of ASICS I have had. Perhaps this one isn’t meant to be as well cushioned as my prior pairs. I would still recommend it for fit. I’ve had them a few months and wear them several days a week. I work on my feet and they’re not showing any wear yet. I’m not athletic. But, I do wear them for a decent amount of walking and the soles are also not showing much wear.

Great value, nice quality and comfortable running shoes
I ordered these because this brand makes high-quality running shoes. I did not order them for running, I wear them for every day because I got the black/black color that matches everything. They are super comfortable, perfect for walking, running, hiking, anything active. This color would work for hospital nurses that need a peg colored shoes that are comfortable. I like this model because the shoe is secure around the toes and has good tread on the bottom so I don't slip. This brand always meets the standard, I ordered a different model for my daughter because she runs, they last her at least one year before she hast to replace them.

Comfy, Light Easy for Walking
This pair of shoes I never tried until they arrived. They fit perfectly (see their measure chart it is realistic) and pretty much what I needed. With Plantar Fasciitis I need a decent walking shoe that is comfortable, light and well-vented (we are in tropics 6 months out of the year). I did need to add a Dr. Scholl's insert for Plantar Fasciitis though because I noticed my foot was sore after a 3-mile walk without one. The combo of this shoe and inset is wonderful because I can easily do my 3-to-5-mile walks in these shoes with no pain. The bottoms also have good traction so for my turf walks this is very helpful. ** I do switch to another pair so alternating days to provide the shoe to 'recover'. I will buy this shoe again.

Super supportive shoes
These shoes are amazing and so very comfortable, lightweight, and attractive. I’m on my feet most of the day and they keep me pain free. If I do not wear these shoes one day, the next morning I will wake up with low back pain. And they are very reasonably priced! I love them!! ❤️

Great all around shoes
This is my 6th pair of ASICs Gel Ventures. I needed black shoes for work and these are comfy and a great value. I walk 5 miles per day and these are alwAys in my rotation. If used 4-5 days per week, you can get 3-5 months out of them. This particular ASIC style is narrow in the heel and has an average width mid foot that narrows at the toes. I need the narrow heel or my heel gets chafed from friction (heel sliding up and down in the shoe). ASICs is my second favorite brand. Brooks is my favorite

Great for wide feet
Bought this for my daughter that has wider feet. They are great, nice fit and looks great.

Disappointed
I love ASICS sneakers. This brand is all I buy so I was excited to get new sneakers after looking for along time. At first, I thought I just needed to break them in but now I know they really aren’t great. They rub on the bottoms of my feet and the backs plus they are extremely warm. Very disappointed!

Fit to size
Reliable sizing and comfort. Asics is my go to running shoe and the gel venture is a light enough shoe for running. Can expect quality with Asics.
