ASICS Women’s Gel-Venture 8 Running Shoes

Comfortable, lightweight and still supportive enough for being on my feet and/or walking around town all day. I am not a runner and cannot comment of how wells they hold up, but work very well for walking 5 to 8 miles a day. Love these shoes!

It’s hard enough to find women’s shoes that come in a 5.5 size, let alone a 5.5 wide. Buying shoes online can be difficult too, as you don’t know how things how things run. These were true to size based on Asics’ size chart. I have small, slightly wide feet with high arches and these shoes accommodate that very well. The shoes are well made with no defects and are the most comfortable pair of shoes I’ve owned in many years. I’ve worn them quite a bit for long shopping trips and walks since receiving them and my feet are SO happy. I think the vivid colors are cute too without looking childish.

This is a decent walking sneaker for the price, but the sizing is way off. I am always an 8.5, but that was too small – my toes were pushed right up to the front. I returned for a 9, which fit perfectly, like an 8.5. They might not be the cushiest, but good looking – love the colors.

I’ve wanted these shoes for a long time. I love Asics. These shoes fit according to size. They are really good quality, nice arch and help with my heel spur. My pain has went down since buying these shoes. The colors are super cute and I’m sure they are durable. Will be buying these again

The basics; in most shoes I wear a 9.5 regular, for tennis shoes I need a narrow heal/wider toe box with a mid-range arch support. I also have broken my foot and ankle in the past. Requiring good support for both.

1) These run narrow. If you know sometimes you need a wide, order the wide.
2). The insoles these come with have 0 arch support.. And the shoe is not designed to offer any when laced up. Very little leather/faux keather. I removed those and added ones that did (doctor scholl’s stability support)-the heal cup is not tall enough. . . causing the shoe to slip up and down on my feet and not provide the needed anckle support.
3) They DO seem to support the area of my foot that I broke (fractured growth plate fuse with a bone chip floating around).

I will keep them, but caution everyone that your go-to inserts may not work.

These shoes are true to size and great quality. The design is also nice. I am using these mostly for walking and the weight room and so far they are providing great support and holding up well.

Have been wearing ASICS for years, size 8
Maybe my feet have grown (with age). Had to buy new and upsized to 8 1/2
Perfect fit and comfortable use in gym and to walk outdoors. Love the bright colours
