Customer Reviews ASICS Gel-Venture® 5

This was one of the easiest shoe purchases I have ever made. The shoe fits perfectly.

My son has a long, narrow foot with a high arch and cannot easily find shoes that have an arch support that really fits. These ASICS do have great arch support!He says they are supportive, lightweight, and comfortable. I think they look great.They've been durable over the months that he's worn them - and they still look new!

I travel every week and bought these for my travel bag for they will match w anything(black/charcoal). Very comfortable and very supporting of the foot. Basically a STEAL at $49.00. Price was so ridiculously low that I bought 2 pairs and will keep the other pair for 6-12 months down the road. I always run in Asics. A proven winner for many decades.

So, I have a size 15 flat and narrow foot. I decided to give the Asics a try and have never worn Asic before. I was very surprised. The fit in length was dead on and even a little more narrow than normal medium width shows. So for me AWESOME!!! I am buying more pairs because the price is incredible too!!!

I bought these for my 14 year old son to train for a 5K. He loves these shoes more than his regular athletic shoes and I never have to encourage him to train.

Great shoe! Glad I bought it. No complaints.

I needed a pair of comfortable shoes for daily use at the office and walking during the day. I figured trail running shoes would do the trick and hold up well under these conditions. I wore these the first day I got them and went for a walk, I wasn't sure I had made the right decision. However after a day or two of daily use (wearing for 14+ hours a day) they broke in very well. After this break in period was completed these shoes became very comfortable. They have enough traction for outdoor use and for standing in a lab type environment (on a very hard floor) for extended periods of time. My foot is a natural size 9.5, however I like my running shoes to be a half size larger and always buy a size 10. I purchased the size 10 and they fit perfect. For the sale price these are a true bargain. Solid shoes, ASICs have never let me down.

Both of my sons LOVE this show. My oldest normally is right between a 14 and 15 and because of the availability of 4E width - he was able to wear a 14 and not have the show slide off his ankle.

Got the Dusky color and really like it! Good hiking look and shoe. Fits great!

Work well, they're nice. Bought them for a man so he doesn't have much to say about them, which is always good.

Love and recommend these shoes to every one who has feet and uses them to get from one place to another. Your feet will thank you.

These shoes are awesome! My foot was killing me because of bad shoes. I was prescribed a boot but bought these instead and the foot pain disappeared. They support my foot in all the right places.

Despite being the least expensive ones I tried, they were the most comfortable!

These shoes are great and I love the color. These felt good right out of the box. Can't beat them for the price

I wear a size 14 wide,first of all try to find a shoe of that size at most shoe stores in the model you want? Asics gel venture 5 fit and wear very comfortable, this is my second pair and for the price you can't go wrong.

I usually buy Gel Nimbus but to save a few bucks I went with these. The fit is good but not as comfortable as the Gel Nimbus. For the price, I would definitely buy again.

I bought these for my husband. He likes them very much.

Fit was a little tight (narrow) initially but either they loosened up or my feet got used to them. They've got plenty of cushion and a little arch support. My favorite thing is the loop on the back. Great for pulling on the shoes, especially for people like me who never untie their shoes when they take them off. I came from Saucony Cohesion 6/7/8 shoes that I had been wearing for years and these Asics are at least as good.

I've been in the military for 7+ years, had knee pain almost since day 1. Did the standard drugs/physical therapy/mri circle with no improvement. Then, out sheer boredom, I size my foot, length and width, and find out that I've been wearing a full size too long to compensate for my absurd width (4E). So I order a pair of these puppies. MAN, night and day difference! Haven't had a problem since. I wish more shoes (and anything other than made-to-order boots) came in this size.

I love ASICS shoes they always work great for me on my feet at the hospital. There is never a break in period and always some color combos to match my scrubs.

I've always been a fan of Asics shoes as the fit and comfort is great from the beginning. This shoe is no different. Great fit and comfort from minute one. Love this shoe just like all the other Asics I've worn.

First pair of Asics. Purchased them half a size bigger due to reviews I've read. They did appear to run a bit narrow but were still comfortable. Do recommend this brand.

Good pair of Asics. Comfortable and has held up well

I work in security and do a good amount of daily walking. I normally replace shoes every six months and typically wear ASICS or New Balance. These are very good shoes with plenty of support for my high arches. They wear well, and the price was right.

My husband loves these shoes so much that I've ordered them repeatedly when he needs a new pair. Go with them, they're lightweight & great support!
