Comfort
These shoes are the fourth pair of shoes I’ve purchased from ASICS. I have made all my purchases for structured shoes. I have an extreme underpronation.These are the least comfortable shoes if the four I’ve worn. They are much more rigid. However I am happy with the ASICS product overall.... Show more

Comfortable trainers
Its been 30 years since I've worn trainers and decided to give these a try.I was surprised they fitted me well. My heel fits well and theres a gripped feeling. The arch isn't too big and theres enough width in the toe box for my wide feet.I'm still getting used to how they feel on the soles of my feet as I'm used to hard soled walking shoes.Overall I'm happy with these trainers and will be trying another kind...

Didn’t meet expectations
I’ve worn these shoes for four months, and I am already seeing holes on the sides of the shoe at the top. Another reviewer here has posted a photo, which shows exactly the same issue I am having with these shoes.Also, these shoes are not waterproof. After walking in the grass in the morning, my feet always feel wet.... Show more

Excellent all weather trainer.
An excellent all weather training shoe. Superbly comfortable straight out of the box. I always buy ASICS trainers. They fit me perfectly every time. Great shock absorption, good traction from the outsole and of course these are waterproof too. A brilliant trainer at this price point. Thanks ASICS.Highly recommended.... Show more

Got the comfort I was looking for
As good as my previous pair (another model but very similar).These have also done their job in heavy rain so far. They fit as good as my previous pairs of Asiscs.Quite slippery when stepping on wet metal objects like manhole covers so be careful with that.... Show more

Not for its intended purpose, general use fine.
As a trail shoe, it fails due to a lack of lateral forefoot support. Unfortunately almost the entire sneaker and running shoe industry has moved to using a knit upper that has no lateral support, my foot slides sideways right off the sole. I don't want to wear a slipper while I am running or hiking. As a general use shoe it is fine for around town but don't bother with this one as a trail runner.... Show more

Ok for the price
I bought these shoes because I do a lot of walking and sometimes it’s raining. So far the shoes have kept my feet dry. But they’re very hard on my feet, especially when I’m walking 3 to 5 miles at a time. They’re supposed to be a trail running shoe. I can’t imagine anyone running in these shoes. Your feet would be beat to death. I think the souls will last a fair amount of time. Overall, I find that any product coming out of Vietnam is inferior in quality. I’m sorry just got to say it. I wish it were different. also I think ASICS needs to review their return policy. How can you really wear a shoe , test a shoe without wearing it. And that’s basically what you have to do if you wanna return something it can’t be worn.... Show more

Thought my running days were over (and grieving).
I have polyneuropathy and stopped running due to fatigue and muscle pain two years ago. A physical therapist I worked with helped me develop an exercise program including walking/jogging convinced I could improve and reduce symptoms. I walk/jog on a sandy desert path/trail that can be rocky and uneven. This shoe (thus far) has made a significant difference. My balance, comfort, and grip on the trail is much, much better and I am encouraged.... Show more

True Review
The shoes are comfortable. I use them for running and every day use. However, there is a slight discomfort towards the medial malleolus; as part of the shoe rubs against it throughout the day. Other than the slight issue I really like the shoes for running.... Show more

Very good off road. A little unforgiving on tarmac
ASICS are the only running shoes I go for these days, as they are the only ones that seem to last more than a couple of months before falling to bits! I used the very helpful Shoe Finder guide on the ASICS website in order to help choose which pair would best suit me, and it was the GEL-Venture 9, although I opted for the waterproof version at a little more cost, because no one likes soggy socks!After only 3 significant runs, I have to say that they are very good, particularly off-road. They can be a little hard on the feet if you have to do a bit of tarmac, and the toes could be a little more spacious. Overall, I am very pleased with them.... Show more
