The most comfortable and balanced shoe I've ever worn. The color is bright and vivid too. And my personal fitted arch supports for perfectly.

These shoes are great, not as comfortable as my other sneakers. But I would recommend them.

These are awesome shoes! After many years of wearing men's asics due to a bunion on my foot, following surgery I was able to choose women's sizes again. I have worn these shoes daily for 18months. They hardly show any wear and are still very comfortable. The arches are still good. I walk everyday and these are my only athletic shoes. I would undoubtably buy them again.

I did a lot of walking in the city one weekend and regretted forever the shoes I wore (basic slip on tennis shoes, not ASICS). I bought these soon after because I kept having issues for a week or so after and I needed to upgrade my footwear to help with my general health. So glad I got these. I went on a 4 hour hike not soon after getting these and I had little to no issues and was so much happier with these on my feet.

very nice comfortable shoe. Unfortunately toe box, even in a wide size, is too narrow for this bunion widened foot. An extra wide, if available, would be perfect. But not available.
I'd also recommend:
NB's wide toe box can't be beat!

I wear a 10 1/2. I didn't know if ordering on line would work, but it did. I'm able to fit my orthotics in the shoes and they're very comfortable. The toe box is great and the heel fits. Highly recommend.

I am a trail walker now but I still wear Asics. These are comfortable and affordable and fit true to size. I go up 1/2 size to account for my socks. I bought 2 pairs this last order.

Fits well, but I would still like to find a walking shoe that doesn't have a thick heel. I travel and need something smaller to pack, because I already wear a size 12.

Very comfortable, supportive shoes! I'm a middle school teacher, so I need shoes that help me "stay on my toes" all day.

I'm an Asics gal, size 8.5 wide, due to the bunion on my left foot. Really, I'm an 8.25, but since that size isn't available, I buy the 8.5 wide and add in a second Asics insole. Fits perfectly. Great comfort as I'm on my feet all day in the gym with a wooden floor. My non-bunion foot would be fine with a regular width, but this foot fits fine with the wide and the extra insole. I bought the GEL-Excite 8 in two colors, they both fit equally well, and both have been reviewed. For reference, I wear 38 in all my Birkenstocks.
I'd also recommend:
Birkenstock, Vionic, Sperry, Frye
