$54.95

Always cagey about buying shoes online: size 10.5 is usually just a bit loose, size 10 sometimes tight, so a 10 extra wide was a good bet. Got the shoes within 48 hours, tried them on, and they fit like a glove. Like walking on a thin mattress, ideal for my workouts in the gym. Wide range of colors to choose from, I liked the blue and it is electric. I think I will get another pair for Christmas as walking shoes.
I had looked at shoes in a store this summer, and the low end was 100 bucks, so the price on these Asics was another winning factor. Very happy on all levels with this purchase

Everything I’d expect from ASICS footwear, excellent fit and comfort. 4 months old and the top mesh where your foot bends is wearing through already, though. 5 stars if durability is improved. In the shoes defence, I am a 30k steps per day guy, on workdays.
Overall, I recommend these provided you aren’t as active/busy as I am.

Over the years your feet change- my husband is a very active and able 75 years young. He stumbled on ASICS a few years ago and really loves the comfort and feel of them. His main use is everyday wear. He was in need of new kicks, hates to shop and I found a nice little deal on this pair. They arrived a few minutes ago and he tried them on walked the house and yard and declared -Best pair yet!

The sole is stiffer and harder than I expected, but that’s good: less work is lost in recovering from excess sponginess. They fit properly, although the volumes around the toes and heels seem larger than I’d expect. I’ve changed the lace-up to a heel-lock pattern, which helps keep my feet from sliding around inside them.

These shoes look great and are very comfortable. They also provide moderately good support – quite good for the price. Warning – they run a little small – I normally wear a 10 and tried it on at Big 5 and it was too small – they didn’t have a 10.5 so I purchased on Amazon. Ended up exchanging out for a size 11. Otherwise I would definitely recommend this shoe.

Great comfortable shoes, but the colour that was delivered did not match the add.

I bought them to wear at work and they do the job well. They look okay, I got them on sale as I didn’t want to spend a lot for shoes to get ruined. They are high quality, light weight, and very comfortable. I recommend them and will probably buy another pair as a backup.

I wasn’t sure how they would fit because the 1st pair of Asics I had always felt and looked a half size too big. A second pair I owned felt just a tad too small. This pair of gel venture 8s feel perfect! I have bad hips and need both of them replaced eventually so I’m always looking for a good comfortable shoe. I put these on and was wowed! I tied them up and walked around the house a little. It feels like the toe box widens as I take a step making these feel even more comfortable than they already are. They’re light and just feel so good on my feet. Not too tight and not too loose. Just such a good fit. A guy I work with has the same pair and loves them! He wears them everyday so they’re well worn in and he says they’re still comfortable and he even bought a 2nd pair to have ready to go for when the current pair wear out. Which will be very soon 😆 Anyway that was enough for me to check them out and I’m so glad I did! He had no idea what model they were so I had to research a little, but it didn’t take me long. I found a great price here on Amazon so I ordered a pair and couldn’t wait for them to arrive! They were definitely worth the excitement! My brooks ghost 15s are like walking on pillows but I just love they way these gel ventures fit! I use insoles in my brooks and other shoes. Not with these though! They’re good as they are and much cheaper! So dang glad I came back to asics. All because of a guys worn out pair at work. Gotta love it! I highly suggest checking them out! I even ordered a 2nd pair to have on deck because they just fit so good and feel so comfortable! Nvm the great price! I didn’t want to miss out on the price but also didn’t want to worry about them not being made anymore since the 9s are now out. Been seeing and hearing really good things about those now! I guess they deff improve on the 8s and actually are better. I’ll check them out eventually. I’m happy enough with the 8s! Great job Asics!
I tried the venture 9s and I don’t like how bulky they are. The toe box has too much space between the top of my foot and the top of the toe box. They’re comfortable, but the 8s seem to be the sweet spot for me. They’ve been great so far! They just fit my feet so good! I also like the toe box mesh material more on the 8s. I just love the 8s so far!

A law enforcement buddy of mine swore by a number of ASICS shoes saying these are the most comfortable shoes he’s worn particularly when working out, but also for everyday. Then when I started training I took his advice and these really are comfortable.
I don’t believe the Gel Venture 8 were specifically intended for dirt trail running, but I’ve been wearing these when working out and running on a number of different surfaces (running a hiking trail, concrete, AstroTurf, grass, dirt track and the rubberized material on some tracks) and these have been extremely comfortable.

There are only a handful of High Quality Brand Running Sneakers that offer a large selection of WIDE TO 4EEEE Sizes.
For years I wore the ” Other Brand” which are Great Shoes…but ASICS offers a wider selection of Colors and designs…and in my experience. .going on 10 years now ASICS fit me the best…are lighter feeling and are of equal or better in quality. This particular Shoe is true to width….very comfortable, give enough lace to tie are good looking …have a quality grip sole… All around a perfect buy.
