Review: Good, comfy shoes - I've never tried Asics before and a friend had said how she like this brand. When looking for new shoes, I saw these shoes in the store, and bought my normal size 8, but they were too tight, so I returned them. I then found them on desertcart (much lower price than in the store), and ordered at first an 8 wide. They were still too tight. Returned those, and order 8.5 regular, and they fit much better. I think overall, these run a little small, but once I got the right fit, they are comfortable and I am happy. I wore them for the first time yesterday, and it felt like I was kind of bouncing when I walked, like on cushions, or walking on air, because of the padded insoles. I think there is some decent arch support, as well. I have high arches, and some shoes do not have nearly enough arch support in them. I got many compliments on the shoes, as well. Also, a big thing for me is the laces. Some types of laces always come untied at some point throughout the day, so I've resorted to tying my laces in double knots. I did not have any issue with these laces coming untied, and I did NOT double-knot them. They stayed perfectly tight all day. Very comfy shoes, but if too tight, you may try a half size larger. I do recommend these shoes.
Review: VERY comfortable! Ran over 250 miles in these - Update review as of February 2021: I ran about 200 miles in 2020 and probably about 100 miles in 2019, when I bought the shoes. They never tore, AT ALL. They've definitely lost support and cushioning, as to be expected with an affordable pair of running shoes and after those miles put on them, but I still wear them to do small hikes and walks. I've since bought ASICS Women's Jolt 2 Running Shoes for this year (2021) because I didn't like the color options for the Contend 5 (2 years later and they still have just the same colors.) - I do highly recommend these shoes! I ended up taking back a pair of $150 Brooks running shoes for Asics. I don't understand other people saying these are too big. I read a few reviews of others also confused by other reviewers say these fit small. I was so nervous by all of the "fit smaller than expected" reviews that I went and tried on 3 different kinds of Asics in a store and the 7.5, 8 and 8.5 all fit normally. I normally wear a 7.5-8 but I was still so nervous that they'd be small because of the reviews, so I got an 8.5 I wish I had bought my regular size 8 though because these don't fit small AT ALL. They fit normal. So these shoes, a size 8.5, fit just fine but I'd prefer a size 8, like I normally wear, so that they'd be a little bit more snug for running. I haven't yet ran in them so I can't review the comfort or arch support. I just wanted to quickly review the fit. If you wear a 7, get a 7. If you wear an 8, get an 8. They fit FINE! Mine were bought from Shoebacca and came with a free pair of Asics socks, too!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best athletic shoe I have ever had!
*by C***N on June 12, 2021*

After 40 yrs of wearing so many brands and types of athletic shoes, having plantar fasciitis, I found the perfect one for me. This particular style is so soft, comfortable, sturdy, and the gel makes it very cushioney, not a word but it fits how it feels. I have 4 pairs (3 gray w/teal & this black w/teal). I get the 7.5 wide or regular, whichever is available in stock. I wear shoes until they fall apart, but these have not fallen apart yet and I have been buying them for over 4-5 yrs, I just buy a new pair when they get dirty to the point that washing them no longer makes them look new. They wash very well, I don’t dry them. I am tough on shoes, so I have my do whatever pairs and my nice new ones for going places where I’m not going to get them dirty. I could wear these 24/7.
