Customer Reviews ASICS Gel-Resolution 8 Tennis Shoe

I took a chance and ordered these shoes. I really like them overall. I might like more heel cushioning but these are pretty good. Glad I have them for my game play now.

I needed navy so i didn't go with my usual gel that has a lot of mesh. These are very tight, not only in the ball of the foot but also around the ankle. I have to leave them almost unlaced and after a 1.5 hour game my feet are hot and cramping. I always size up in Asics and the 9.5 usually works. I have to wear these for my team uniform but do not recommend.

I've been wearing these at least five days a week for a couple of months on indoor and outdoor courts. These are my first pair of Asics (previously wore Nike Vapor X) and I am SO happy I made the change! I experienced a brief break-in period, but they are perfectly formed to my feet and I can play in them for many hours at a time without any foot pain. The quality is incomparable to my previous Nikes - by now, the soles would be worn out and I'd have holes in the toes, even when sizing up! Speaking of sizing, I went with my normal size 9, and they fit great. Took one star off for those random orange straps. I had to cut them off, ugh. I was worried that I was removing function, but the shoes have worked just fine without them! If they are indeed needed, please make them a more complimentary color in the future - like black or dark blue. Without the orange straps, I get a lot of compliments on the style. Please make more women's shoes in black or dark colors - I would love to buy another pair, but just can't deal with the neon colors and/or white soles!

Not as "wide". But just like any shoe, need to break it. Very comfortable and true to size.

These are like little tanks on my feet. They're great for going side to side, but very hard to actually bend the shoes since they're so stiff. Pretty comfortable. I've been wearing them for a couple of weeks, and I'm hoping they'll get broken in soon.

I got my pair in the mail today and I would say heed other reviews about sizing because these suckers run INCREDIBLY tight. I am typically a size 9 for sneakers/tennis shoes and never have really needed to adjust my size even when I see people review about adjusting a half-size or so. I was previously wearing the Gel Resolution 6s as they have lasted me a good 3+ years from my college tennis days (the durability of Asics are top of the market), but I am in the market for a new pair of shoes. Upon arrival, I could barely get my foot into the shoe! The fit is uncomfortably tight in the toe box area including the sides and the top of the foot. My rear foot even feels a bit constricted, but not as much as the toebox. To note, I do have bunions as well, but my feet fit comfortably in my size 9 GR 6s. There's no way I could wear the pair I received on the court without pain or losing some amount of circulation as there was barely any space to give. I returned my pair the same day to exchange and try sizing up to a 9.5 and see if that fit is any better. I'm a big fan of the Gel Resolution line from my past experiences and want to give it a good review, but it does seem like the construction has been going backwards based on people's reviews (which made me hesitant to buy the GR 7s). If you need confirmation that these are not true-to-size, this is the review to heed. And for the love of everything Asics, please stop cinching your customers' feet! Seems like with each new version I see people complaining about the fit and the shoes getting tighter. Implement what people liked from your previous versions.

Attractive design. The shoe was too tight in the toe box. I normally take a size 10 in a running shoe. These were too tight and difficult to even get on. I returned them for a refund.

This shoe is very cute but way too narrow for me. Sadly I had to return. I do love the gel in the shoe. They told me to try men size since they are wider. If you have a narrow foot, you will love it.

The shoe is very stiff on the upper foot. It has not loosened at all after 3 very sweaty outings on the court. So stiff it's hard to lace and unlace.

I love the look of these but they are very heavy and super stiff. I'll continue to try to break them in but my toes have been falling asleep.

I love the color of the shoe. I had read some of the reviews and decided to order a half size up so my feet wouldn't be crammed into the rather tight toe-box which I had read consistently complaints about, My toes feel fine in the larger size and the shoe seems comfortable enough when walking around with the laces untied/loosened. However, when I tie the laces to play in them, the collar of the shoe near where the last 2 shoelace holes are digs painfully into my inner ankles. I've played 5 times in these shoes and it still hurts.
