Description

The GEL-EXCITE 9 Color Injection shoe is a comfortable trainer for the casual fitness runner. This colorway is inspired by the heritage of our traditionally vibrant running shoes. It features bright tones and energized graphics that are complemented with various coastal caricatures. With an engineered jacquard mesh upper, this material increases airflow while creating a softer feel against your foot. A combination of AMPLIFOAM cushioning and GEL technology are placed in the midsole. These features provide better durability with a more forgiving landing at footstrike.

  • Home run
Size: 9.5 Color: Black/Hazard Green
First off I am writing this review only to help others. I have received no compensation of any kind for it. Second off, I’ve been running since 1998 (25 years). I’m currently in my mid 40s and working towards a goal of running 3,000 miles (the distance across the continental U.S.) bit-by-bit between 40 and 50. I run 3-5 miles 3X a week, no more/no less. Since age 42 I’ve run 1700 miles. I’ve written running shoe reviews semi-professionally in the past, too. So I am pretty qualified to review a running shoe. Thirdly, my preferred brand is ASICS. I have tried a lot of shoe brands as a semi-professional reviewer because they were sent to me, but I always have come back to ASICS because they just…work. I believe the straight lasting is a lot of the reason why. Also, the tendency of the ASICS brand to put their premium technology into their budget models (GEL cushioning, for example) brings me back again and again. They just make the best affordable runners on the market. Fourthly, I have always been an advocate for budget running shoes, provided they are well-designed. I have tried the expensive ones at various times and have developed more typical running injuries in those than I have in a solid pair of reasonably-priced running shoes. Particularly, I do not like ultra-cushioned shoes. I like a low-to-the-ground natural feel when I run. In ultra-cushioned shoes, I can’t get ground-feedback when running and that’s a fail for me. It’s like running in space. It’s weird. Fifthly, and this is probably the main point, the ASICS Excite series is a favorite of mine. I have used the Excite 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, and now 9. They keep getting better. I find that they have just enough cushioning to dampen impact but not so much as to throw off my gait. I use them with my doctor-prescribed orthotics (pictured) and the combo works very well. If I were a distance runner (like a marathoner) I might need a shoe with more cushioning, but for 3-5 miles 3X a week these are absolutely ideal. ASICS has priced this model very reasonably which is great given the high-level tech used here; the GEL heel cushion plus Amplifoam midsole are superb for dampening shock from the road. The outsoles are durable too. The uppers aren’t as tough as those on the Excite 8 but it still works fine for me. Fit is on-point too. Overall for what these cost you will likely not find a better performance runner. So in summary, if you’re a regular runner/jogger and looking for a good solid shoe to use for shorter distances (up to 6 or 7 miles), look no further. These are absolutely superb and I honestly like them better than many shoes that cost twice as much or more! Update: Six months of jogging 3-5 miles 3X/week and these shoes are still going strong. Minimal tread wear, no wear to the upper, cushioning still firm and responsive. What a great value! Update 2: 9 months of jogging 3-5 miles 3X/week and my shoes are finally worn out. The cushioning no longer has enough “spring” for running, although I can use the shoes for walking or errands for a few more months. On to the next pair of the same model! I’ll say that most of my running shoes last 6-8 months of regular running regardless of the price, making these Excites a super performer. The uppers are still intact and the outsoles have minimal wear, which is surprising. My experience with the ASICS Excite 9 overall has been extremely positive. I will say that these are my choice for runners as long as they are being made. I see that there is a version 10 of the Excite out now too, which I’ll have to try in the future. ... show more

  • Comfort and Style
I love the fit and comfort of ASICS; for Christmas I bought two pair for my husband one Excite 7 and one Excite 9. He is a Brooks man and refused to wear ASICS…until he tried his Christmas gifts. I have converted him! He’s not a runner; he just likes to wear running shoes because they are comfortable and stylish. So, I bought a second pair of Gel Excite 9s and he Loves them! He says the fit is perfect. He pulls out the insoles and adds his orthotics. He says they don’t squeeze his forefoot and his toes have plenty of room to spread out; he has a medium width foot but too many other shoes feel tight on him. He says they let his feet breathe, but I already know that being a big fan of Asics. And he says the design of the shoe sole stabilizes his feet and add cushion. As an added bonus, the bottoms of the shoes don’t collect pebbles that can be dragged into the house and fall off into the carpet. Some shoe tread designs allow for small pebbles to be lodged in between the tread; we live in AZ where grass is scarce and crushed granite is everywhere. The materials used to make these shoes are quality, the construction is solid and lastly, the color combinations are pretty cool. ... show more

Easy to wear,good support for my feet and my ankle and although very good quality. ... show more

  • Excellent Cushion
Size: 10 Color: Deep Ocean/Amber
These are my second pair of this model. The cushioning is ver nice, and placed well. My feet don’t tire as much as they do with other brands. They fit true, I wear the same size across all brands. The overall quality is excellent.

  • Comfortable gel shoe
Asics fit my feet so well, I have multiple pairs. These Gel Excite 9 are a comfortable shoe thats great for walking. I love the bright, easy to see color and the reflective logo. Definitely worth $60! I do wonder if the upper material will handle toenails long term as i dont wear socks in them- it does feel a little thin. Otherwise, great! ... show more

  • Perfect fit
Size: 9.5 Color: Midnight/Sky
Perfect fit, and comfortable shoe. I wear this ASICS shoe to the gym. I’ve worn ASICS running shoes for over 20 years. For running I have the ASICS Kayano.

  • So far so good
Size: 11 Color: Black/Hazard Green
I have had Asics running shoes before and have found them to be comfortable, supportive, and durable. I can get close to 500 miles on them before they need to be replaced. I'm only about 30 miles into these, but they seem to have all the great characteristics of my previous ones. They could be a bit lighter, but they are in no way heavy or clunky. I have typical protonation, so if you do not, you may not have a similar experience. ... show more
