To be honest, I buy running shoes for two reasons. I'm a regular runner, 3-4 times a week, but not long distance. 6-10 km each time, easy pace. I'm 43 years old, so no longer trying to improve a lot. Just trying to keep healthy and fit enough to enjoy the years ahead with my relatively young children. So the other regular use of my shoes are in the weekends, with jeans or bermudas, or on casual friday at work. So, they have to look good too and be as comfortable for walking as they are for running.
Perhaps my expectations were already realistic but I was v pleasantly surprised at how comfortable the fit was immediately. Hey this is as cushy as the more expensive models! Have I been paying too much for 'segmentation' all this while?? It has that nice 'foot glove' feel - snug but not too tight. The neon green turned out to be very nice too. Not garish or 'obiang' but bright and catchy.
When I took it for the first run, initially I felt the 'side cushioning' wasn't as stable as the Kayano (19, also bought from Amazon at a great value of US$87!), but that was just for the first minute or two, as I got used to this shoe. After that, the run was pretty much what I'd expect from an Asics - you don't notice the shoe after a while, which is the best compliment you can give to a runner's shoe. Frees your mind to wander, focus on your form, enjoy the morning fresh air and the feeling of being alive.
Human beings are naturally relative creatures. Once we get used to something better or more expensive, we only notice the bad things of a more 'regular' product. It was amazing to me that this did not occur with the Gt-2000. In fact, I find myself reaching out for this shoe as often as I do my Kayano or my Saucony Kinvaras (4). Surprisingly, the one that turned out most disappointing, perhaps again because the expectation was the highest due to the price, was the Kinsei (4). Twice (out of perhaps 1-2 dozen times) after 10km runs with the Kinsei, I felt soreness in my feet that bordered on pain. Considering its positioning as the highest end Asics, this was a big letdown. Nonetheless, the design is very creative and I still use those shoes a lot for casual walking.
A final word about buying the latest model vs an older one. My view is unequivocal. Buy the older model!! They are much cheaper and unless you are Sebastian Coe, you won't notice the 'advance in technology'!! Most of these brands will discount as much as 40% to clear the older stock, which to me is a great bargain. So why would you pay 60% more (or $30) for the gt 3000 when you can get a perfectly brand new gt 2000 much cheaper? And these shoes wear out in less than a year anyway, when the gt 4000 will appear and your gt 3000 is no longer the latest model? This is one of the best arbitrages in the world, until the shoe makers wise up to this and stop discounting the last to latest models! In the meantime, pick up these great bargains. And happy running!!
Unfortunately the trend in running shoes lately is to make them super fugly and colorful - apparently design techs at Asics flunked out of art school while simultaneously losing their color wheels after being abducted and brain-wiped by Aliens to forget which colors actually go with other colors. How sad. :(
Thankfully they make these sharp, classy-looking black shoes that leave my feet looking smart as well as functioning perfectly! It was annoying that this color scheme, which one would think (and hope) would be a more popular style and color combination, wasn't available in local sporting good stores. It would seem that these same stores have also been visited by Aliens when purchasing the selections they wished to stock. How sad (again).
Thankfully Amazon had a link to someone who offered these and I'm a very happy owner of them. Great shoes and a great fit! ASICS for life, baby!!!
I wear these shoes because I work retail and am on my feet all day and that gets painful in crapoy shoes, or shoes that fit my strange sense of style. Certainly I appreciate that I generally feel better in my back and knees since I've worn these. Just would recommend one higher width than normal and these are good.
My wife still prefers the cushion of the Nimbus but for me this series is good. These also seem like the best constructed pair I've had in this series too so far which is good.
I've had these shoes for about two months I think.
