AsicsWomen's Gel-Rocket 8 Volleyball Shoe

I wear a 6.5 shoe and whenever I buy these shoes they fit perfectly.It is the only court shoe I wear. I play a lot; they wear well.

Because I've never owned an Asics before, I want to know what size I should get.  I have normal feet. My regular running shoe size like Sketchers, Fila is 8.5. However, with Nike, Adidas and New Balance running shoes is 9.5.  So, I searched and asked around, including the official Asics online store expert. I was very disappointed with the so called shoe experts. I talked to two different people, they both gave me incorrect information on the these volleyball shoes. Then, I went to a sport store, thinking the sales person should give me more accurate advice. But hell no, he didn't know his stuff either. They only have the Upcourt that I could try on, and 9.5 fits me well. My advice to you is to try them first before you buy it. Btw, I will use these shoes to play badminton.

I bought these sneakers for indoor pickle ball. My feet are pretty picky with sneakers, having had Achilles tendinitis in both ankles. These sneakers didn’t bother my Achilles or my feet at all, but the soles felt stiff and hard. Once I put a pair of Dr. Scholl’s active series insoles (from the drug store) in the Asics, they felt fantastic. So comfortable from the get-go with no break in period. I noticed several other pickle ball players with the same sneakers, and another person had the same experience with changing out the insoles. I’m very happy with the purchase, as these shoes are a great price for sneakers that look good, keep me from slipping on the gym floor, and are comfortable enough to wear all day. I recommend them.

I got these for playing pickleball indoors. My other shoes "grab" too much, making it possible to fall. These have good traction but I am not as apt to fall. The arch is fairly high but not sky-high. I actually could use a higher one, I have very high arches but this is enough so my feet don't hurt.The fit is as expected. They're a little wider than most shoes I think (I'm not sure because all I wear is sandals). I've worn ASICs for about ten years and they continue to be dependable.Lastly - they're pretty! I'm trying to preserve them by only using them on the court and nowhere else.

They shipped quickly and they were in good condition when I got them. They were a teeny bit small for my feet. I usually order a 9.5 but I'm curious if a 10 would have fit a little bit better. I think that it's more of a width issue. There is a bit of space between my toe and the tip of the shoe but they feel small because they aren't wide enough for my feet. They'll get by but I wish they were a bit wider. Other than the fact that they're not wide enough, they're really nice shoes and I would recommend them if you're feet aren't too wide.
