ASICS Men's Gel-Venture 7

its wider and comfortable. one of the bests

I purchased these shoes in late February and started using them in March. I have used them to walk to and from work, while working, which involves a lot of walking and standing, and to go on a couple jogs. In five months time, after logging, roughly 1000+ miles, the treads have worn down, yet the shoes have held firm. I did add some insoles a while back, I just trimmed them to size and put them on top of the factory insoles which are apparently affixed in such a way as to not be removed. At least easily. These shoes have served me very well and have been comfortable. Mostly they have be used on road and sidewalk surfaces and hard cement flooring at work.After 5 months and logging roughly 1000+ miles I have decided to get another pair of aSICS. Only I got a half size bigger. The only real issue I had with the old shoes is some restriction at the top arch of the foot, basically where the shoelace is tied. Yet that may have been on me for getting a size too short. I haven't had blisters or any other issues. In fact, I had a bout of Achilles Tendonitis prior to wearing these shoes. I was wearing boots at the time. Fortunately it passed and have luckily had no more problems with that while wearing these shoes.I like that these shoes are available in wide sizes. Overall these shoes are breathable and and reasonably priced. I would highly recommend for anyone who is on their feet and does a lot of walking. Just make sure you know your true shoe size, and if you're like me, you should be good to go right out of the box.

Good sneaker. Fits well and is comfortable to run around and be active in. But I had a pair of Asics that lasted me nearly 8 years, and this pair only lasted 2. Don't make them like they used to, I guess.

I have owned a variety of Gel ASICS shoes including several Trail shoes, and liked them all. I saw a pair of the Gel Venture 6 at the store a couple years ago and waffled a little about the waffle sole. It looked as though it might allow unwanted lateral slippage. I also wondered how long the narrow waffles would hold up. I went ahead anyway and bought a pair, as they did feel very comfortable. It turns out that they are the most comfortable Gel ASICS shoes I had ever worn. I have had issues w foot pain for years, and yet continue to play golf and walk 6-7 miles per round. Also play tennis several times a week. Hike w the local hiking club 5-10 miles a trip. I found that the Gel Venture 6 did not slide around, nor wear out overly quickly. Although the sole is particularly soft and perhaps a little thicker than some ASICS, it is not overly so. In other words, the shoes do not feel unstable. I am able to play pretty vigorous tennis on indoor courts and the shoes are not a problem. Specifically, I don’t feel as though I can turn my ankles. The soles do wear out in a couple months if used regularly for tennis 3 times a week. BTW, I wear New Balance inserts and remove the factory ASICS inserts on all my shoes, which may affect my experience with these shoes. In any case, I had come to the conclusion that at least for me the ASICS Gel Venture 6 were the perfect all-around shoe. Then comes along the Gel Venture 7. I am always a little bit suspicious as to why shoe companies are always coming up with new models. There are probably good and bad reasons. To sell more shoes probably. Anyway I took the bait and bought a pair of the possibly improved Gel Venture 7. They appear almost identical to the 6’s, which is a good thing. So far I can’t tell that they are any better, but also not worse. So would I recommend one over the other? No, not now. So instead, I suggest getting whichever is less expensive. What may unfortunately happen is the 6’s will be discontinued. So perhaps one strategy is to get a couple of them while still available, if they do well for you. Take home message, is that you too really ought to give these a try. 6 or 7’s. Can perhaps decide based on looks. Between the two models, you have a lot of choices. You too may find that these will become your Fave Gel ASICS. And maybe add New Balance inserts for a truly great ride.

I find these to be very comfortable ( I only buy Asics) and they are a really cute color that matches with my University of Miami gear. Oh, and the price was right, as they were on sale.

Durable and very comfortable. fits as expected

I am a semi-serious runner/walker. I do 30-40 miles a week give or take. I have work Asics shoes for many years and this model is my personal favorite for a couple reasons. First, these are "technically," trail runners. Don't get me wrong I run hundreds of road miles on them but they offer a bit more stability than a sleek road runner. Second, they are comfortable...at least more comfortable than most running shoes. The insole inside the shoe holds up well and provides a good amount of comfort for a lot of miles. Third, they are extremely affordable. Getting a pair of shoes that I can put several hundred miles on for around $60 is an incredible deal. I have worn $200+ shoes and while they were lighter and sleeker, they don't impress me any more than these as a whole.I couple things to note. These are not light shoes. They are not heavy but they are not as light as a high end road runner. Also they have an aggressive tread. Like I said earlier, they are technically a trail runner so the treads reflect that. I personally like that because it adds more ankle stability and I am able to bust out onto the grass or dirt without slipping and sliding.I will continue to order the Asics Venture 7. GREAT shoe for the money.

I love these shoes and have two pairs of them. They fit perfectly from day 1. I will be ordering another pair soon if they are still available. I ordered 11 EEEE.

Awesome all around!

I simply love my birthday gift to myself. They feel great, look great, fit great, and I thank you.I take size 10, I ordered size 10, for reference.P.S. Seems the gel pack goes all the way, from heel to toe.

El producto ajusta de acuerdo a la talla. Yo soy 9 1/2 mexicano y pedí 11 1/2 USA y el ajuste es perfecto. La calidad es muy buena y si sufres de fascitis plantar te van a encantar. Súper cómodos para toda actividad.

Having wide feet has meant taking half a size larger to accommodate the width but this leaves the toes short from the front of the show.Seeing the ASICS option for X-Wide, decided to try a true to length pair.These shows fitted my 10.5 foot length perfectly and the width was similarly perfect.While trying them on, never felt a shoe fit so perfectly that they did not need walking in - best purchase of shoe ever made! :-)

A 140€ la paire, rapport qualité/prix scandaleux.
