ASICS Women's Gel-Venture 6 MX Running Shoes, 5, Black/ICY Morning

These tennis shoes have done even better for me than Nike and adidas. They are particularly fantastic for wider feet like mine and so comfortable and supportive. They still haven’t worn out and I wear them at least 5days a week!

I needed a new pair of tennis shoes. I wear them for everything so I wanted something cute. These are cute and comfortable! Tru to size as well.

Great shoes. They seem a little longer and bulkier than usual, but great support.

I've been "training" in this shoe since October 2018. As a normal "trainer" shoe in the gym or for in home workouts, I love it. As and actual running shoe, I have done about 50 official events 5K, 3 half-marathons and numerous run training sessions in these shoes. The shoe I wore before (Saucony Women's Kinvara 8) felt relatively light compared to this Asics which felt a bit clunky. I had quite an adjustment period, with respect to the weight of the shoe on my foot while jogging. However, the sturdiness of this shoe (upper and lower surfaces) makes me feel it will last quite long, especially the treads on the sole of the shoe.For shorter distance runs, these shoes are quite nice and comfortable. As I increase the distance in my run, (usually around the 9K mark) I start feeling the side of my big toes rubbing against the side of the shoe, causing large blisters to form on both toes. I have completely lost and I am currently regrowing the nail from 1 big toe (damage occurred during the 2nd half-marathon run), and I am awaiting the bruising on the nail of the other big toe, to grow out (damage occurred during the 3rd half-marathon run). I tried the "change your way of lacing the shoe" for the 3rd marathon, and while I was able to keep my nail, the blisters still formed on the sides of each big toe and there was some damage to the nail. The shoebox for this shoe seems to be a bit narrower than most shoes, but its only really noticeable on my longer runs.While I usually run in shoes 7.5, perhaps it would have been best to purchase size 8, especially if I needed it for longer distance runs.Full disclaimer: I run all distances wearing ASICS Women's Intensity Single Tab Running Socks

Thank goodness I went out of my comfort zone and ordered these wonderful shoes!!! I absolutely love them.A little about my story, I have plantar fasciitis and I was first told by doctors about two years ago. It is terrible and the pain in my feet is constant. I started getting shoe inserts so my feet would get better, but that was complicated because then the top of my foot hurt because the insert made less room in there for my feet. They worked as far as taking my pain away from the plantar fasciitis but it wasn't an ideal situation. About 2 weeks ago my feet were in so much pain I needed to figure something better out. I did tons of research, read a lot of blogs and lots of reviews which helped me order these shoes!!! First off the delivery was fast! I picked up the package off my porch and I did not think it was my shoes because the package was way to light. I even handed it to my 14 year old daughter to feel because I didn't think it was my shoes. Well sure enough it was:) so first impression they are super light weight, second they look even better in person, and third as soon as I put my foot in the shoe and took my first step it literally made me sooooo happy. No pain at all. My feet hurt without shoes on. Walking around my house I could tell right away that I made the best decision to get these:)They are super affordable, the colors are amazing, and the comfort for me is spot on. I couldn't be happier. Thank you so much!!!

The shoe fit perfectly and made my running experience much better! I was never able to really run because when I was younger I had a leg deformities that caused me a lot of pain when I ran. After my leg correction, I still couldn't go for a walk for too long before my feet would start to hurt. I really wanted become a runner last year while I was attempting to lose weight and I wanted to try running to improve my endurance and cardio. After looking for good running shoe brands for beginners, discussing options with experienced Runners, and checking out the reviews, I decided to give them a try. My first run was an incredible experience! My feet didn't hurt at all after the run! It was like I was gliding on air the whole time until I realized that because my feet hurt so much, I never felt the impact of running on the rest of my body. I had no idea that your calves, thighs and even the core ached from running because my feet would hurt so bad. I've been using these bad boys for a year and it really made a difference in my life and I couldn't be more grateful!

I wear these for work, I am rural mail carrier and in my feet all day. These are comfortable and durable

I haven't purchased ASICS in over a decade. I recently decided to start hiking and trail running again, so whent to my go-to brand, only to be very disappointed in the sloppy design of their shoes. I am not a power hiker at this time, and only beginning running, so the Gel-Ventures should have been a perfect shoe to start with. I found these shoes to provide no arch support whatsoever for my medium-high arch. The front of the shoe is medium-wide, so ample room to wiggle your toes, but sadly, no support either for the ball of your foot. Heel stabilization sucked, as my heels kept sliding side to side, mostly to the outside (I am an underpronator) while on a 1.8 mile hike over an easy-moderate trail through some sandy washes. And it feels like the tips of my toes hang slightly over the edge of the insoles, leaving even less cushion. I don't like these Gel-Venture 6. I wanted to return them, but I do like the color and the sale price I bought them at. I had an extra sole insert that has decent arch support and a stabilizing heel. It improved heel stability and arch support a lot. No slipping around on my next hike, so it makes use of the sneakers doable. I will keep these sneaks for day-to-day wear, at the gym, and for short hikes. You do not want to buy these sneakers for anything more intensive as they will not likely meet up to your expectations. And I intend on writing ASICS directly to inform them of how disappointed I am with the direction their company took in the resigning of their shoes.
