Customer Reviews ASICS GT-2140™

I think I like them... Well I bought a 7.5 m width and in retrospect maybe the 7 wide would have been better for me. Either way I am happy with them and I think much of it depends on the socks I wear with them. They are really very nice looking shoes and overall I am happy with my purchase. They are incredibly light weight.

Overall Satisfaction. Great comfortable shoe. Could use a little more cushioning, but that might just be a personal preference. Reaches a little high on the heel, but overall... I'm completely satisfied with this shoe.

Asics are my preferred running shoe - I've been wearing Asics as my running shoe of choice for over 10 years. I run an average of 20 miles a week. This shoe is pretty good. Perfect combination of soft fabric and hard support. I generally have issues on the sides of the feet--the bone at the bottom of my big toe and my small toe, so I need running shoes that properly give in these areas. These do a pretty good job-although I've noticed a little rubbing on the side of my big toe. I'm cool with the purchase, though.

Asics Gel - These shoes are wonderful. They're light and bouncy. The laces stay tied! And for those of you with high arches the extra support really helps keep your stride even. The only negative is that this shoe runs a little small. Get a half size larger.

ASICS GT-2140 - These are nice and light weight but I had the previous model, GT-2130, and I think they were better they lasted for a full year. I work out 5 times a week with high impact and I am going to need an insole to help with the cushion on the balls of my feet; they aren't to comfortable there, but everywhere else. Overall I will still go with ASICS.

Like not love - Good solid shoe. Good support and stability. Narrow enough but just not as good as the Nimbus for my foot. The bright colors are fun (I got the aqua and lime green) but they did not make up for the less than perfect fit. Once again, my foot is extremely hard to fit, so I would say give this a try. For most people, this would probably work really well. It has a lot of cushion in the bed of the shoe, but I could not feel any arch support at all. Otherwise the shoe was quite good. I am sending it back.

Overall great fit - This running shoe is very true to size. The only complaint that I have is that my feet are very narrow and the toe box is still a little too wide. It has great arch support and does not slip at the ankle. This is the first time that I have worn this brand and highly recommend it.

ASICS 2140 - This is a great shoe for someone with a high arch and an overpronator. The shoe is true to size, but if you are a runner, I would suggest getting a half size larger. For the price, you cannot beat the quality of the ASICS 2140.

Great new shoes - I bought a pair of these in black in hopes they would look a little more subtle than my size 10 running shoes. They look really good and minimize the size of my feet. They are lighter than leather by far, and I could wear them all day right away. They accommodate my orthotics, which I must have, so give me plenty of support. Good purchase.

Liking the look - I have been looking for this shoe in black for a long time and was very happy to find it at Zappos. It looks great and gives the illusion of a high heeled gym shoe, which looks really cool. I like wearing it with black exercise clothes. It gives a great "put together" look. It also is very comfortable, but not as sturdy as other ASICS shoes I have gotten. I am a bit concerned that it may not last as long as others I have had. I exercise pretty hard 7 days a week so I will see what happens. I do alternate shoes, however, according to my work out, but I always use ASICS.

These shoes are super cute, and pretty comfy, but do not have sufficient support for running, especially in the ball of the foot area. I don't need much. I won't get them again.

These running shoes are just OK. They're not great. I needed black ones. I'm using these for my winter workouts at the club. For me, they don't have enough support for running a lot on the road. They come in wide, which I like because woman's running shoes are usually a bit too slim for my foot. I put in an over-the-counter orthotic for better arch support, and sometimes I use a heel-cup to help my achilles tendon problem. I have used Asics and Mizunos for running the last few years. I have not found a really good running shoe for my foot in a long time.

Tooo Shortttt ! I usually wear a 9D; I need half a size larger, also the shoe laces were way to short, could hardly tie the shoe. Zappos is Great to work with, very organized.

Walking Memere - I love my Asics. They fit good enough and are somewhat comfortable. My disappointment is in the selection presented...hardly any size 91/2 and the color styles are very limited. I have several pairs of Asics none of which are narrow...this poses a great problem for me because of the fit...I try to tie the tight as I can but I still have too much wiggle room for walking in marathons. I have never found a narrow 91/2 in any of the stores I shop...guess the 91/2 is not a stock item.

My husband is very happy with his new Type Z Sergio boots. They are exactly what he was looking for... they look great, they feel great and the price was right! The amazing thing is that there was no 'breaking in' period. They were comfortable from the start. So far the lack of cushioning/support inside the boot hasn't been an issue. If a 13 wide had been available he could have added gel soles; however, the 13 regular doesn't allow enough extra room for insoles. Also, the wonderful customer service is worth mentioning. The communication was excellent from start to finish and the boots arrived 4 days after placing the order. You can't ask for more... highly recommended!

I had to buy the men’s at our local store. I bought an 8 4E wide. They were good for a while, but broke down quickly. Not much arch support. The mesh leaks in all kinds of water. I love the coloring, but I would not buy them again. Life span was about 3 months at best. I’m still wearing them around, but I’ve just gotten new ones I haven’t wanted to get dirty.

Disappointed - I have other Asics shoes and have been very satisfied. These shoes felt very comfortable when I put them on, but after walking about 1/2 mile, they began to hurt in the arch area. By the end of 4 miles, it felt as if I was getting a blister. I will continue to wear them at the gym but not for serious walking.

I have always ordered Saucony Hurricanes, but noted these were on sale, stupid me. The heel is narrow and the shoes hurt the balls of my feet. I have worn them 3 times so can't return them. I won't ever buy again.

Great Looks, But - Good looking shoe, but I like the looks and comfort of the Asics GT-2130. I am buying two pairs. The GT-2140 did not look as good and it definitely did not feel comfortable.
