Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Sonoma® 6

These shoes are not supportive enough for over pronators. They fit loosely over the middle, so I have to lace them in a awkwardly tight way. The length is right for my size 14.

Comfortable, nice thick sole, fit is correct for size.

Super light, comfortable, and breathable. A great all around shoe I can wear all day. Great off road traction and nice cushioning. Only gripe is the awful squeak the laces make as you pull them through the lace loops. Other than that a terrific shoe.

A little bit longer than my usual 10.5 Asics and does not have enough arch support

They're super lightweight and extremely comfortable. Didn't seem to need any "breaking in" either. The only thing i don't like is the right heel "clicks". Im not sure if there's a small air pocket somewhere or what's causing it but I don't see any cracks in the sole or anything stuck in it anywhere at all. But every step I take on a hard floor comes with a click sound in the right heel.

Pretty good shoe, but not good for trail. You'll feel every pebble.

The shoes are comfortable, but the material on the soles is very slippery on anything wet or on tile floors.

A little on the thinner side even when ordering half a size up.

This shoe style did not fit me well. Going to stay with GT 1000.

Despite the advertisement that these shoes have a wide toe-box, I found them to be sort of pointy and oddly shaped in the front. I will say that they do disappear on my feet once I start running in them so that's a plus. But when I've tried to wear them around casually, I find that my foot tends to slide forward in the shoe, and that strange toe-box shape starts feeling really uncomfortable on the outer edges of my smaller toes. The shape is just not at all anatomical, and a bit of a departure from some other Asics shoes I've owned. I've done runs up to 20 miles on mixed surfaces, and the gel midsoles and outsoles/tread pattern really work well for almost any surface you throw at them. I wouldn't use these for the most gnarly of singletrack trails, but for everything else (including road miles) they perform really well.

Good damping, but the sole is not very stable. The shoes dont hold the heel very well. It is not a real trail running shoe.

This shoe feels sturdy and durable, its comfortable, but there is something wonky in the toe box

Not as comfortable as the Gel Venture 6s and 7s I've had over the years. Taking some time to get used to. The other shoes (6&7) were comfortable right out of the box. Wish there were more color choices.

To skinny and causes fatigue in legs, at first I thought that the shoe was ok.

not at all as pictured, very poor fit and poor quality compared with other Asics I have purchased. I have been wearing Asics for over 40 years! Honestly I was very disappointed and that is why I returned them!

I've been wearing Kahana's for years and got these as a replacement trail shoe since Kahana's seem discontinued, but comparably, these offer very little structure or support. The underfoot cushioning does work well, but apart from that, compared to the Kahana, this is a fail.

This is a very cheaply made shoe that offers minimal stability and hardly any protection from rocks on rocky terrain. It may perform okay on level surfaces, including paved roads, dirt, and possibly gravel roads. Level gravel roads are probably this shoe's limit as far as "off road" or trail running is concerned. My advice: Spend more money and get a better, higher quality shoe. Your feet will thank you.

Unexpectedly low quality. Sole broke after 7-8 uses of low demand - low impact exercise. Have been wearing asics for 10+ years and haven't had this kind of experience before.

Didn't last more than 30 days just walking. Toe already poking through cheap mesh. STAY AWAY FROM THESE.
