True to size - I have wide bridge, high instep and narrow heel - this shoe handles it all very well. Comfortable from the first moment I slipped them on.

I love these sneakers. They were comfortable from the minute I slid them on. I am on my feet all day and these give me the support and comfort I need. I like these sneakers so much, I just I ordered a 2nd pair for the gym!

I bought these for my 12 year old daughter. She wanted a pair of Gel Asics and at the mall they are too much. These do not have all the visible gel that the other Asics have, but she loves the color and wears them most every day.

I did not buy these at Zappos because I received a discount at Champs. They were so comfortable that I bought the Capri Blue and white and the Titanium and hot pink. ASICS came highly recommended to me from a friend that also has wide feet. The built in arch supports were not high enough for me but I have my own supports anyway and they fit easily into the shoe without removing the insole.

Love this sneaker! Fits like a glove. Bought them to replace Asics Gel 1170's. These fit me better and the gel cushions my foot much better.

I love Asics, they are always the perfect fit, especially if you have a wide foot. Very comfortable and great for walking.

This is an excellent shoe for walking or short distance running. I am a retired physical education and have worn the asics since my marathon days. Never been injured even running better than 100 miles a week.

The Kodiak blue color is gorgeous but the fit is just too dang weird. I bought a L, I'm 5'7", and the coat fit great except for extra long sleeves. In really cold weather I think that would work but it looks really odd to have them running to the fingertips. Also, hood isn't detachable. Should have read the fine print! Returning, even though the overall quality was great ('cause it's NoFace!).

I was really disappointed in this jacket I really wanted it for a long time and jumped on the chance to get it half off when it was on sale, I brought a large I am 5'2" 180 pounds the sleeves were long, of course, and I could have switched for a medium but the waist part was tight. So if I had brought a medium my coat probably would not have been able to be zipped up. My bottom is big, but not that big, I just expected more from North Face, I will try another design! This one was returned!
