Yes, a good fit and feels good on my feet. I was expecting a bit more of an arch support, but there are many shoes to choose from with good arch support on the website. I am satisfied and happy with my shoes. Plus, I got a $10 off gift as a birthday present.

Comfortable shoes. First time having the D fit. It made a difference. Good support for the heel and breathable. Foot do not feel hot anymore. All good and price was affordable.

Good for walking, not so much for running, lacks support front part of shoe. Need more support when running outside on footpaths. Ordered size 7, slightly bigger than a standard 7, could have gone half a size smaller.

I ordered these as my office work shoes since I do a lot of walking during my commute. They’re super comfy, go with almost all my outfits and are lightweight. I love them and wear them everyday. I’ve even thrown them in the wash and they came out like brand new. (All white pair)
I needed a new walking shoe and tried these. I love them so far. I love the gel cushioning. I take long walk with a few sprints and so far so good. Lightweight shoe. I ordered the pink pair and they’re so cute. Also my first time owning this brand.
I bought these to have something more suitable for walking than my 'fashion' type of sneakers.I do have ASICS Netburners for netball which I love so wanted to get more of a supportive shoe for walking. They are probably not quite as supportive as more of the higher level performance exercise shoes in the ASICS range, but they are very comfortable, and for the price point you can't really go wrong.
Comfortable, supportive and the foamy feel is great. I use them for gym and a little bit of running. They fit my orthotics in them which is why I bought them. Very happy. Highly recommend and they look great too.
ASICS will always be the first shoe I purchase when needing new shoes. They are extremely soft and comfortable on my feet especially since I do alot of walking. Would recommend ASICS to anyone and everyone!
When I tried them on at the store I wasn't sure they would be that great but they were the color I wanted. So I tried them on at home the next day and wore them and they turned out to be so comfortable that I wore them all day! They are light weight and I hardly know I am wearing them.
