Best Running Shoes for Women of 2025

"I wear a size 8 1/2 Narrow and had a hard time finding the right fit. I ordered both 8 1/2 N and 9 N, and I kept the 9 N for a little extra room for socks. This shoe is wonderful; I didn't want to take them off! They fit perfectly narrow, so my foot doesn't slip out, with plenty of toe box room. They're well cushioned and extremely comfortable. The perforated fabric keeps my feet cool, and even walking in wet grass, my shoes stay dry. These are my favorite shoes ever!"

"I have to say, these are the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. I really needed support for my tendinitis and wide, flat feet, and these delivered. They are worth every penny.

"Running feels easier in these shoes. The cushioning is outstanding, making it feel like my legs are floating. The feedback I get is so consistent that my effort feels significantly less than with other shoes. I'm a dedicated ASICS wearer, and the Gel Nimbus is definitely my favorite!"

"After trying a cheaper pair of Asics that were uncomfortable halfway through my shift, I decided to invest in these. Right from the first wear, I could tell they felt great.

The regular width fits perfectly for my generally skinny foot and slightly wider ball. Plus, the toe area accommodates my long second toe without discomfort. The cushy support from the soles is incredible and I didn’t even feel the need to switch out the insole. After major foot surgery in 2021, these shoes have made a significant difference in my comfort level. I can now comfortably walk over 13,000 steps a day!"

"I was officially diagnosed with plantar fasciitis and Tarsal tunnel syndrome, which led me to try these shoes on the advice of my foot specialist. Going up half a size was the best decision I made.

They are breathable and stylish, even in a size 11, and I've been able to wear them for two weeks straight at work without discomfort!"

"These shoes are really cushioned well. I love the navy blue color, and I appreciate that they slip on yet stay on firmly. I ordered a size 9 since I usually wear an 8.5, and they fit perfectly. They're a bit pricey, but having one great pair of tennis shoes is worth it!"

"I was initially hesitant to buy these shoes due to my tailor's bunions, but they are amazing! They feel like I'm not wearing shoes at all—spongy and comfortable. I completed a workout at the gym with no foot pain! I'm thrilled and will be getting more pairs in different colors!"
