I have bought the gel-venture 9 for a few years and have loved that model. Now that I can no longer get that model in my size I had no choice but to try the Gel-Venture 10. I am very disappointed in this model as I is quite cheaply made in comparison to the 9 that has been my favorite. First off the ASICS symbol on the side of the shoe that was stitched on in the 9 model is now a cheap sticker on the 10 which started to peel off after the third time I wore the shoe. Also, the main reason why I liked the Gel-Venture 9 was how the insole formed to the arch of my foot. The 10 however is just a flat insole that doesn’t offer the support that I had come to expect from the brand. Unfortunately I will have to find another shoe brand.
