The GEL-EXCITE 9 shoe is a comfortable trainer for the casual fitness runner. Thanks to its engineered jacquard mesh upper, this material increases airflow while creating a softer feel against your foot. A combination of AMPLIFOAM cushioning and GEL technology are placed in the midsole. These features provide better impact absorption with a more forgiving landing at footstrike.

Title: love these shoes
Review: These shoes are great for gym workouts! I have these in blue and loved them so much I also ordered them in black. They are true to size and feel very good on your foot. Worth the money!

Title: No break in required
Review: So very comfortable during a 12 hour shift, straight out of the box! They seem to mold to your feet. No heel pain, no back pain, and no pain to the bunion. Size was perfect.

Title: Not enough arch support
Review: I actually really like these shoes for their price point. I bought them specifically because reviews seemed like they had adequate arch support. I have found they do not have enough arch support. They are pretty thick foam. If you're used to slim shoes like Converse, they are going to take some getting used to. I wear these with Smartwool socks from REI, and I walked 3-6 miles on a couple days. The first day I walked 3 miles in them, my feet hurt a lot afterwards. Maybe they do need some breaking in because the day I walked 6 miles, I had little to no discomfort. Just the normal weary feet after walking that much, and some pain because the arch support wasn't enough. No blisters, but that might be because of my socks (they are magic!!). The laces are a bit too short for me, and/or maybe I should have sized up since my socks are so thick.Edit: After having these shoes for almost a year, they are worn out and I'm getting ready to replace them. They lasted me 11 months, although they've been too worn out for maybe the last month or so of that. The ways they are wearing out can kind of be dealt with? The back of the inner heel has a hole worn through layers into the foam, and my big and pinky toes have worn holes into the top. The fabric they use for the shoe uppers is very breathable, which means it's easy for water to soak through, and it's soft enough that it wears out quickly. Now, the soles are still fine. If it weren't for the uppers, I could wear these shoes for probably another year. I've been using them almost daily for the gym, walking around town, etc. They did end up having decent arch support, at least it stopped hurting after I broke them in.

Title: Perfect
Review: Best sneakers I’ve ever owned. Was reluctant to buy this brand again because of bad experiences in the past. Was pleasantly surprised by these. There comfortable and fit great.

Title: Very comfortable
Review: I absolutely love the comfort of these shoes.I used to wear ASICS in my 30's for playing paddle tennis and running. I've been having issues with back pain, so my dr suggested I get a pair.Wow, better than any shoes I've ever worn.I did have to up size. I wear a 9.5, and purchased a size 10. Perfect fit. They really do help with my back pain!I highly recommend ASICS running shoes!

Title: comfortable!!!
Review: This is my second pair of Ascis. First pair I got during covid and I work in the health care. I am always on my feet. I always say I'm an old lady since I prefer comfort over style (other narrow popular sneakers). The contend-9 lasted few years but they got holes at the toe and side from the use. With the inside go worn down. I really like the ortholite in their brand. I got this pair few weeks ago and wear it only to work. I got so many complements. They are cute and comfortable. I hope these last as long as previous pair.

Title: Comfortable but the mesh needs to be stronger
Review: I absolutely love the support this shoe provides. Working 12+ hours a day on my feet is a killer. I have a previous fracture to my ankle and it provides great support. The color is so cute. The one major draw back is there is a hole that developed over both pinky toes because the mesh is not that great. It is flexible but I could still be wearing my shoes if it had not been for this. It lasted about a year before the mesh gave out.

Review: These were not the same quality as Asics I've bought previously, and the seller would not accept a return or make a refund even though the shoes were unworn.

Review: I always buy Asics as my feet just seem to like them. I have RA and have started to walk regularly but noticed my feet have started to bother me so I ordered a new pair of Asics in hopes of some relief. These did not disappoint!! As soon as I put them on and walked around there was no discomfort at all. I still need to go on some long walks to see how they hold up, but I don't expect any issues. Great price for great shoes.

Review: I have had this brand before & this purchase did not disappoint! They fit perfectly & are very comfortable for my daily walk! Love the navy blue colour & they don’t look overly big which is an additional plus! Very happy with my purchase! I have some aging issues with my feet but these feel so comfortable!
