Review on ASICS Gel Venture Running Aluminum Directoire Men's Shoes and Athletic by Chris Lacasse

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Disappointing fit (loose, not big)

I've been wearing Ascis shoes for almost 30 years and have a very active lifestyle - gym, running, hiking. This is the second pair of Gel-Venture 6 shoes I've bought and they're both the wrong size for me. I had my feet measured by an orthopedist and they should fit, but now I think it's a quality/material/design issue. Unfortunately, the last time I had to change an order, Gel-Kahana was out of stock, so I tried Venture again with the same results. The weakness of the boot gave me a lot of trouble so I use it as a stable boot. I won't buy them again.

Pros
  • Shoes fit as expected and are worth the price.
Cons
  • The Gel-Venture 6 may not provide adequate traction for customers who frequently hike steep or rocky terrain.
