  • Great shoe from Asics!
Size: 8 Color: Metropolis/Black
I wasn't sure how they would fit because the 1st pair of Asics I had always felt and looked a half size too big. A second pair I owned felt just a tad too small. This pair of gel venture 8s feel perfect! I have bad hips and need both of them replaced eventually so I'm always looking for a good comfortable shoe. I put these on and was wowed! I tied them up and walked around the house a little. It feels like the box widens as I take a step making these feel even more comfortable than they already are. They're light and just feel so good on my feet. Not too tight and not too loose. Just such a good fit. A guy a work has the same pair and loves them! He wears them everyday so they're well worn in and he says they're still comfortable and he even bought a 2nd pair to have ready to go for when the current pair wear out. Which will be very soon 😆 Anyway that was enough for me to check them out and I'm so glad I did! He had no idea what model they were so I had to research a little, but it didn't take me long. I found a great price here on Amazon so I ordered a pair and couldn't wait for them to arrive! They were definitely worth the excitement! My brooks ghost 15s are like walking on pillows but I just love they way these gel ventures fit! I use insoles in my brooks and other shoes. Not with these though! They're good as they are and much cheaper! So dang glad I came back to asics. All because of a guys worn out pair at work. Gotta love it! I highly suggest checking them out! I even ordered a 2nd pair to have on deck because they just fit so good and feel so comfortable! Nvm the great price! I didn't want to miss out on the price but also didn't want to worry about them not being made anymore since the 9s are now out. Been seeing and hearing really good things about those now! I guess they deff improve on the 8s and actually are better. I'll check them out eventually. I'm happy enough with the 8s! Great job Asics! ... show more

  • Very comfortable shoes for walking/running! Excellent grip (traction) and fairly durable.
Size: 10 X-Wide Color: Black/Directoire Blue
This is my second pair of ASICS Gel Venture 8s that I ordered, mainly for playing sports like tennis, table tennis, and pickleball. The first pair that I own, I have used for walking, running, gym use. I was very impressed with them. I purchased that first pair from a big box store, but now that I know my size, I could shop online. I had owned that first pair over a wear without much wear & tear. I absolutely love much comfort this shoe provides if you are able to find the correct size - at first I tried the normal Size 10, but these appear to be fairly narrow toe box, so I went with the X-Wide version, which fits my foot better. Overall, I would purchase this shoe again because it holds up well and provides ample traction on a wide variety of surfaces. ... show more

  • Fits like a running shoe, hikes like a good hiker. Good for all but the toughest terrain.
Size: 10.5 Color: Metropolis/Black
Great shoe. I use it for a hiking shoe primarily. If I'm needing a lightweight boot, solid grip on the rock, and a great trail shoe, this is ideal. The only negative, as one might expect, is it's basically a running shoe upper with a great hiking tread. Therefore it isn't nearly as protective on the foot whenever there's a scrape across the upper part of the foot. However, for decent, but not outstanding stability, good fit to size, and excellent hiking tread, this is perfect. I'm using it on all trail hikes, and most of my milder off-trail hikes. The only thing I'd not recommed it for is bushwhacking extreme steep or precarious terrain, where you've no trail. I'd want a sturdier (leather) boot for that. ... show more

  • Quality, selection, and great price always wins!!
Size: 12 Color: Grey
I've been wearing New balance for year's. Never had a problem. I was looking to purchase a replacement pair. I didn't like the styles that were available, and the prices are getting out of hand. Shopped around and came across this Asics shoe. The reviews I read were all good. I bike a lot. These shoes are great, feel great on my feet right out of the box. I'm buying another pair before they sell out. And there a third of price of new balance. 👍 ... show more

  • Reliable shoes for walking
Size: 12 Color: Monaco Blue/Black
This is my second pair of this model of Asics and I use them mainly to take my twice a day walks. I've tried NB and other major brands and have paid a lot more for walking shoes, but with a little upgrade these shoes do the job. I'm 6'3", 215 lbs with narrow feet, so support is important. The insoles that come with the shoes are not great so I buy off the shelf insoles to support high arches and a touch of plantar fasciitis. These shoes have a hardy tread that holds up for the year that I usually use them. I've never had problems with the fabric or workmanship, even walking in harsh Great Plains winters, heavy rain and dirty, dusty trails. For the price, you can't go wrong. ... show more
