Do Asics running shoes run "large" as in "over size" like Nikes?

[MichaelD]

I'm considering purchasing some Asics running shoes online. Problem is that I'm not sure what size to order.

I'm usually a Nike guy; Nikes' run large and I take an 11 1/2 Nike, but usually an 11 for all other brands.

Do Asics run "large" like Nikes do? It would be a PITA to send them back.

No. I wear 13's and Asics 13's were too small for me.

Oh man...so you're saying they run SMALL? :roll: Now I'm really confused as to what size to get!

It's been a while, but my preferred shoes were asics... I wear a 13 as well, and the last few pairs started running smaller and smaller on my feet...

From what I'm getting out of this, you have to get Nike's larger than your normal shoe and you have to get Asics larger than your normal shoe. Isn't that what you are both saying?

Asic wearer here. I got measured as a 10 1/2 4E and I can buy sneakers online now because the last 3 pairs of Asics I've worn have all been 10 1/2 4E and fit perfect.

Thanks guys. I guess I'll give an 11 1/2 (same as the Nikes I wear) a shot.

Well....ah, yeah, I guess it is! :laugh: I didn't get it at first...I'm a bit slow today.

i find asics to be wider and shorter while nike's longer and narrower. but i haven't bought running sneakers from either in a few years.
