Really liked this shoe; knit upper is very lightweight and comfortable, perfect for summer. Arch support in the right place; sole grips the floor well, and toe box is roomy. The heel is narrow enough so the foot does not slip around, a bonus. This shoe looks better in person than in the photos!

Poor quality and thin construction, very little arch support. Did not feel ANY of the promised "gel" at all. Very flat and hard feel to the shoes.
Very disappointed. Long time ASICs user, so am shocked at how awful these are.

I ordered these when I made the decision to begin training for my gritstone half marathon. I’ve put in about 25 miles of running on them and have had them for about two weeks at the time of this review. They fit like a dream and are very light. They’re a different fit from my previous trainers so after the first couple of runs in these I did experience so calf tightness and pain but I adjusted to the new style quickly (like a week) and that went away. I’ve also gone on a five mile hike on pretty uneven, rocky terrain and they were great for that too. Finally, they’re super cute and I’ve worn them several times just into town or to work with a pair of jeans.

I sometimes need a wide width in shoes, as I have a narrow heel but a wide forefront and bunions. So my size can be a 7W, a 7-1/2W or a 7-1/2 regular depending on the shoe. This shoe fit PERFECTLY in a 7-1/2 regular. It’s also very comfortable and supportive and cool for warm weather. And it’s a very stylish shoe (I bought the blue/orange one). I take 4-5 mile walks almost every day and I love this shoe!

My true-fit size according to the Asics website is a size 7, my normal street shoe size. However, the only way I could have worn that is barefoot, and the knit is a little hot to wear without socks. The 7.5 fits well with a light-to-medium no-show. A little tight with a heavier sock. (My foot is medium width.) I really like the shoe - the blue is a very fun color, and the black laces means it works with both blue and black jeans. If I continue to like it, I may get another pair in gray or black.

Love Love these! I have severe arthritis in my knees. These are supportive and cushioned. I especially like there aren't hard seams to rub on my foot. They also look good. I feel comfortable wearing them with my work slacks. My only issue is that the laces keep coming untied. I have to double knot the laces.

Adorable! I love them. The size and width of these seem right on. They are super comfy with moderate arch support. I wear them every day to the gym for a varied workout.

I really love this shoe. I was wearing an old pair of athletic shoes and I started running casually. I decided I wanted to continue running and increase my mileage so it was time to invest in a pair of nice running shoes. These are amazing! They’re so comfortable, they feel light, and they are super cute. I wear them for running and occasionally with jeans to work. I bought my normal size and they’re a perfect fit.

These are super cute but do not have enough cushion in the ball of the foot and heel area. There also isn't enough arch support for me so I am having to return these.

My wife loves them. She was skeptical of ASICS at first, but this shoe adequately provided the support she needs. Even the color is growing on her.
