Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Excite 10

I own the 8th generation gel-excite and ordered the 9th gen and 10th gen together to see which I liked better. At first I really liked these (the 10th gen), they are cushier than the 8 and 9, however after wearing them for a few hours in the house, I really dislike them. I love the cushioning. But they force your foot forward and the toe box is narrower (and maybe shorter) and my toes end up getting smooshed again the front of the shoe and it hurts. This is with just normal walking. I have owned the last few gens of this shoe and this one is a departure in the toe box size. Maybe sizing up a size would help, but the fit was otherwise good. Wanted to like these a lot and really hated them after wearing them for more than an hour. For comparison, the gen 9 is basically the same as the gen 8, but with slightly lower profile footbed and a bit stiffer sole. Gen 8 still my favorite I guess. Here's hoping gen 11 returns to that.

Love the fit of Gel Excite! Been wearing since #6. My ankles roll, inward badly, and I’ve tried all of the main stability issues, including Brooks adrenaline and ASICS gel Kayano. And for me, at least these are better. I love the fit and the money I save, I buy myself some good arch supports, and I feel like I have custom shoes. They’ve updated the look and technology without going all in trying to copy the look of the Hoka One Ones. I’m not saying the higher and sneakers are not good – – just give these a try before you break out your wallet and drop $140 on a pair of shoes. These are A+

I have terrible feet. Flat and bone growing on top of one foot due to arthritis as well as a bunion, the other foot has numbness from spine injury and two toes growing a little odd with aging. Usually wear 8.5 w these fit perfectly in that size, bought the soothing sea/ glow yellow. So pretty.

I was looking for comfortable walking shoes. I admit I tested SEVERAL pair inside my house. I tried different price points…all the way to $160. The ASICS Gel-Excite 10 were the cheapest…and guess what…they were the most comfortable. I have some foot problems and it’s difficult to find shoes that suit me. These shoes have a roomy enough toe box and they are cut low enough, so they don’t rub on my ankles. The cushion seems just right for walking. For reference, I wear a 8.5 to a 9 in regular shoes. A 9.5 fit me perfectly. Happy with my purchase!

I wear size 9 and these fit true to size. They are the most comfortable running shoe I’ve ever worn, and I’m no stranger to running shoes so that’s saying something! I also love the colorway which happens to coordinate with my windbreaker :) I mostly run on roads and gravel pathways, and it feels like I’m running on clouds with these shoes. Couldn’t be happier!

I felt like it had minimal arch support and cushioning. So many people said that it ran small but it was a bit big for me when ordering a half size up.

This shoe is comfortable and a great color, but clumsy in appearance and not particularly stylish.

I'm so happy I got this pair. I ordered another pair in Grey and the sizing was off. Overall this shoe is a good value. The color I picked looks beautiful on tanned legs.

Works for me. Very comfortable for someone with wide flat feet. Didn't break the piggy bank. Asics delivered with this color. However I ordered another color same size and the fit was not the same. How can the same shoe but a different color differ so much.

Super comfortable - I keep ordering these shoes every time a pair wears out, which I find is about every 500 miles.

I usually wear a 6.5 or 7 and 6.5 fit perfectly. The shoes have nice support and good cushioning. Great for walking on asphalt. I haven’t tried walking on a treadmill or running.

Very light with good ventilation. My wife is very happy.

fit was good for my toes

Comfortable and true to size.

Sometimes I wear 8 sometimes 8.5, always wide. These I needed 8.5 w They are perfect. I got the soothing sea color. Beautiful for summer with teal capri leggings for my trips to the gym.

Lightweight, well made, comfy. Usually wear size 10 Nike, which tend to run a tad narrow. This is wider in toebox, but fine in heel. Not as cushy as Gel Nimbus 26, but still terrific in gym.

I have been buying this pair of shoes for years. I work as a veterinary technician and am on my feet for 13-15 hrs a shift. They are great.

Nice, ran in them all day just slight soreness from the heighth of the shoe but other than than works great!

Lightweight materials, great cushy feel in heel, feel like i can go further. Lot of room in toebox, nice amount of snugness in heel (tend to wear narrow shoes). Have 2 pairs of this style.
