It fits! This is a comfortable, sturdy, light shoe, and the first women's athletic shoe I have owned as an adult. I wear a size 12-1/2 and am thrilled to finally have a shoe that really fits my foot. It makes exercise a pleasure.

I chose these after reading comments from other reviewers, which really helped! I, too, found the toe box to be a little tight. I did select a half size larger but it's still a bit snug for my big toe. After 1 month of use, and adjusting the laces, I found a spot that works but I'm thinking I should have gone up a full size. I use these to walk about 2 - 3 miles every morning, and I no longer have sore feet and blisters, so I am so satisfied!

Great shoe - I have flat feet and so far this shoe has been great! I did have to order a 1/2 size bigger than in Adidas which is what I usually purchase.

Short and narrow - Even the wide width in a full size larger was just too tight in these shoes. The arch support felt good, but it wasn't enough to overcome the size issue.

Other shoes recommended by reviewer: Brooks Ariel - their wide is wider.

Excellent support - Excellent shoe, lives up to all its promises. I wish I had listened though to those who said it ran a little short as it does. Maybe not a full half size, but some. It really is cool, I can actually feel the breeze coming in the mesh!

Asics Gel-Foundation 7 - Excellent shoe! I usually wear Nike and was shocked at the support this shoe has for overpronation! I absolutely love it! Zappos is one of the best companies on the web!

Good shoe - First time with ASICS, usually wear New Balance. These shoes are nice - run a bit short, but not horrible. Comfortable right out of the box. No real breaking in period. Worn them the entire first day. I would like to see a bit bigger toe box. Overall very comfortable with decent arch support. These old, big, fat feet are happy.

Comfortable shoes for overpronators! I am still in shock! I ordered these shoes at 10pm EST and received them at 1pm the next day! These feel great on my arches, but I found the toe box to be a little small and I had to exchange them for the next half size up. I would recommend these to anyone who overpronates or has heel or arch issues.

Great shoe and support - I ordered the same size as my other Asics shoes. Asics seem to run a little small, so order up if in between sizes.

A bit too hard inside - Though I have very flat feet, overpronate and am a women's size 11 - 11 1/2 I found the sole of this running shoe a bit too hard and the slight bump for the arch was set too far back towards the heel. Occasionally I have heel pain with my flat feet and the sole of this shoe aggravated this. Besides that, everything else about the shoe was comfortable. Also, I prefer shoes to be a bit darker since they get dirty so quickly. It's rare I buy a shoe with so much white on it. I bought a pair of GT02130's (blue and silver) that were a better fit for me...lots of room in the toe box and fit perfectly around my nonexistent arch and heel.

Overall great shoe. Fits well, but not much room in the toe box. I have really terrible pronation and these are some of the only shoes that (with my orthotics) I can wear all day and not be in pain. Highly recommended. Not the snazziest shoes ever, but reasonably good looking and COMFORTABLE (though perhaps not quite as cushy as I would like).

Good Choice - Great shoe, good stability, however, runs just about 1/2 size small. Very comfortable.

At last! Shoes for my flat wide feet! I ordered these based on a magazine article. I have *extremely* flat feet and have given myself an ankle issue thanks to the over-pronation (that I was never aware of before the injury). I recently joined a fitness club and have been doing treadmill walking. Every time I would come home and have sore, aching feet that nearly had me in tears. Tonight I walked in these shoes for the first time, and they are FABULOUS!! Wonderful ankle support, the arch support is just right, the shoe overall is firm without being uncomfortable -- it's great. Just wonderful. I did order a half size larger based on another recommendation, and I'm glad I did. I would advise others to do the same. My feet do not hurt, my ankle is not all wonky, and these shoes were comfortable from the get-go. I can't speak highly enough of these! I am super fussy about my shoes, and for me to love these says a lot!

My Running Shoes Order - When I found this running shoe on the Zappos product list, I placed my order, on the phone, right away. I was told that the "overnight shipments" were not still in effect, but that my order would be sent to me ASAP. I received my order the very next day anyway! I was treated with respect and courtesy, in a very professional manner. I definitely will order shoes from Zappos again! This was my second order; the first shoes I ordered about a month before and was also very pleased!!

Love them! I love this shoe... I have a hard time finding a shoe to fit because I always use an orthotic in my shoes. They work very comfortably in this shoe. However, I did order a size larger than normal.

Comfortable shoe for overpronation - After reading recommendations about brands of shoes to buy for overpronation problems, I bought this shoe and found it to be consistent with the recommendations I read. I have plantar fasciitis and this shoe helps me exercise without as much pain as I had before. I bought a size 10 in this particular shoe and it seems to run a tad bit smaller than another Asics Gel shoe that I have, but not enough to cause me to go up another size.

Excellent for over-pronator, narrow feet & higher mileage - I've tried every brand's motion control and stability-plus shoe (20+ shoes). This is the only pair that was narrow enough in the heel to support my foot without slipped and provided enough control. Its light weight makes it superior to the Brooks Ariel & Addiction and NB's 1223 - they don't feel like bricks on my feet and my time doesn't suffer (another shoe to try with a little less stability is the Brooks Trance). I highly recommend these shoes - order a FULL size up from your normal RUNNING shoe - 1.5 sizes up from street shoes.

Doctor recommended, patient APPROVED - My foot doctor recommended these shoes after I went to him for terrible heel pain...I first noticed how comfortable and supportive these shoes are. Then I noticed that the pain in my heels was gone so long as I kept them in my ASICS! I am so glad that I could find the shoes I need...AND THEY LOOK GREAT!

Good cushioning and stability - I found these shoes on another website for $10 less and true to their promise, Zappos immediately matched the price and gave me an additional 10% off, and upgraded my shipping for free. The shoes feel a little snug so I exchanged for a wide in the same size (they were out of the half size up). We'll see if that works. However, even with the snug fit, they shoes easily accommodated my custom orthotics.
