Fit and comfort + great style worked for me perfectly. Whether out on a walk along the central CA coast or in the gym, they are stable and easy on your wider foot to last all day. Well built and looks good anytime. I don't use to run mileage, and wouldn't use to play pickleball or tennis, but just a really nice all around athletic shoe. I'd buy a second pair to stash away for the future. Male 60+, wearing frequently and holding up very well.

Fairly new to running. Did c25k a few months back, now do 5k in 30 mins, 3 or 4 times a week. Had a real cheap pair of ASICS which suited me very well to begin with. Finally thought I'd earnt an upgrade. These are a massive improvement! So comfy and well supported. I saw a couple reviews saying to go a size up. I bought true to size (10) and they were pretty snug when I first put them on. Only took a few runs to bed in to being a perfect fit. I'd suggest getting your normal size. Really supportive for beginner runners like me (and I'm still nearly 100kg....)

Bought these trainers as I had previously bought a cheap pair of running shoes from Amazon (never again), and I had started to develop pain in my hip and knees after/during my runs when wearing the cheap pair.These trainers however are genuinely like running on clouds, no more pain in my knee or hip. They are genuinely just a delight to run in, I cannot recommend them enough.They are reasonably wide, without looking chunky. I’ve had Nike trainers in the past which were really constricting on my feet, but these allow my feet to spread naturally and like I said they don’t look chunky or too wide, so they’re aesthetically pleasing too.I’d say these are probably more for your beginner runners (like me) and as you progress with your running journey, there are ... MoreBought these trainers as I had previously bought a cheap pair of running shoes from Amazon (never again), and I had started to develop pain in my hip and knees after/during my runs when wearing the cheap pair.These trainers however are genuinely like running on clouds, no more pain in my knee or hip.

These low-cost running shoes offer great value for their price. Despite their affordability, they provide decent comfort and durability. The lightweight construction makes them suitable for various running activities. The grip is adequate for most terrains, though it could be improved for more challenging surfaces. The breathable material helps keep feet cool during workouts. While not the most stylish option, they serve their purpose well for casual runners or those on a budget. Overall, they're a decent choice for anyone seeking functional running shoes without spending too much.
"I'm thrilled to share my experience with Asics shoes! I've been using them for the past two years in Pakistan, and I was so impressed that I bought another pair in the UK. The quality and performance of Asics shoes are unparalleled - they're truly a worldwide, 1st-class brand. Whether you're a casual runner or a serious athlete, Asics has got you covered. Their shoes are durable, comfortable, and provide excellent support. I've tried other brands, but nothing compares to Asics. Highly recommended!"
I ordered these in size 12 EEEE and they fit but they don't fit. They are a perfect 12 and a perfect 4E but the huge problem is that no matter how much i tightened these my heels slides up and down as i walk and if i were to keep these the back part would wear out in no time at all, like in 2 months the heel would be done for and i'm not using any thin slick socks but the thicker cotton ones which grip the inside well. And that's also considering that i took the laces out and re laced them because the way they come laced out the box is just trash, They look good aesthetically but it's terrible. But even after re lacing them they still slide up and down just less than before and that's considering that i have these too tight to ever be comfortable so I'm forced to ... MoreI ordered these in size 12 EEEE and they fit but they don't fit.

These shoes are useless because of that so avoid these. I've never had this problem with any shoe from Nike, Adidas, or under armor before. All have hugged my heel perfectly without it being loose like these are causing tons of friction and wear or ever being tight.. These have no tightness in the heel area.
These are the 2nd pair of Gel Excite 10's I have run in. For the money they are bang on! I'm not an elite runner, nor a fast runner. Being 55 and entering running only when I was 50, I recognise my abilities and needed a shoe which allowed me to run at my own pace, were comfortable and managed my over pronation, which these do.Sure, there are probably better running shoes out there, but I have always stuck with Asics as a brand as the fit and ride suits me. But, these Excite-10's also come in on budget for me which ticks all the boxes. I'd recommend to anyone into running to keep fit, stay healthy but not necessarily looking to enter ultra events, marathons or elite sports.Really happy and thank ou Asics!
I love these shoes. They fit my 4e, x-wide toe box with room for custom orthotics after removing the supplied insole. I replaced it with a plain Dr Scholls pillo insole.When you find the right Asics shoe, there’s nothing better. These have just enough give to adapt to your foot. Unfortunately, Asics makes dozens of models but incredibly few that come in xw with neutral pronation. No more cross trainers, no outdoor shoes, no other styles with a similar fit. It’s so frustrating! I’ve worn Asics most days for several years but I guess there aren’t enough people like me to drive the necessary profits. Please keep making these incredible shoes but in lots more colors.
These shoes are a step back. I have owned 5+ pairs of ultra boost and decided to try the ASICS gel excite 8 just as a backyard shoe because they were like $60. I fell in LOVE with them. They became my everything shoe. Gym, running, work. Probably the best shoe I’ve ever owned. After two years they got torn so I decided to go with the 10 and was very let down.First, the upper seems way cheaper. The materials just seem like they’re far worse than the 8. The laces feel like they might last a month or two at most.Then, to my biggest gripe. These shoes are WAY skinnier than previous shoes. There’s such a curve in on the inside of the shoe that my foot wants to bulge over the side and hang out of the upper which is extremely uncomfortable. I wear a size 12 and do not ... MoreThese shoes are a step back. I have owned 5+ pairs of ultra boost and decided to try the ASICS gel excite 8 just as a backyard shoe because they were like $60.

There’s such a curve in on the inside of the shoe that my foot wants to bulge over the side and hang out of the upper which is extremely uncomfortable. I wear a size 12 and do not have an especially wide foot. This feels like a size 12 slim and I don’t feel like that’s gonna be comfortable to someone with a normal foot.With that being said, besides the foot hanging over the side issue, the shoe is incredibly comfortable because of the padding. I wish they would have stuck with the gel excite 8 design.
