Excellent sneakers, large size

These are excellent sneakers. Works on both trail and road surfaces. Very comfortable, lots of space in the forefoot. My only complaint is that Asics recommended I buy a size 9 shoe because I bought their Tri Noosa Gel 10 in a size 9. But the Asics Gel Venture 6 is too big. I returned the 9 and repurchased the 8.5 but even they turned out to be too big, especially if you're like me who has one foot half a size bigger than the other. Size 8.5 generally fits me but these had to be returned. I…

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Long delivery

I do not recommend! description below.

I wrote ASICS about this shoe, model 6. I agree with other reviewers who think that Amazon purchases may be fakes and not ASICS store purchases because they are so uncomfortable. I would compare it to walking barefoot on concrete. Another reviewer mentioned that she can only wear ASICS made in a certain country and ASICS made in certain places have gotten cheaper or something. This shoe reminded me of Walmart tennis shoes that never shrink. ASICS told me that Amazon sells fakes and recommended…

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Best shoe for hiking, vacations etc.

I ordered these shoes for a week long trip to Washington DC and they were fantastic! I used to always order a new pair of Skechers memory foam for trips to Disney, but now I stick with ASICS. Very good quality and stylish look. I like the colored soles so they don't get dirty easily. Not too heavy, which bothered me. I have very flat feet, a little narrow, a size 11-11.5 (ordered 12 due to swelling and they were great), I'm 280lbs and had a cerebral fracture last year. These shoes had all the…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • So far so good

Ideal for high arches! Help my leg pain!

In short: These shoes are great. The only drawback is that the back runs a bit high up to the ankles, which only bothers me a bit when walking. No problem with running. Long story: These shoes seem to be helping my tendinitis/plantar fasciitis. I've always worn Brooks (Ghost) - great shoes - but my foot problems haven't gotten any better, which has severely limited my mileage. I ran two runs in these shoes. After the first run I had less pain and on the second run I could run forever! It was…

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Some problems

Gel-Venture 5 vs. Gel-Venture 6

As a retired nurse with a history of plantar fasciitis, I've learned to look at running shoes differently. Prevention is the best way, and that means wearing good shoes that complement a specific size insole designed for your specific foot problem. I have worn Asics for many years and have bought 3 pairs from the Gel Venture range. These shoes offer excellent stability, are very durable and pair well with my favorite insole (Spenco Polysorb Cross Trainer). From a practical point of view, a shoe

Pros
  • Comfortable
Cons
  • Safety
