Customer Reviews ASICS GT-2160™

I have a wide foot - makes buying fun shoes difficult. Thanks to Zappos - I can find wide shoes. I can even wear athletic socks with these shoes - they are great!

Great shoe! They are the only ones I buy because they feel great. I just got this pair to start training for a marathon and they are wonderful! They do run a bit narrow so make sure you order a wide if needed. I would highly recommend this shoe!

I love these sneakers! I love them so much that I bought both pairs they had in my size. With abnormally large feet, I find it very difficult to find sneakers that don't pinch either my big or pinky toes (or both). These shoes are amazing. They are super comfortable, the right width, and the right length. I have had trouble finding the right width since I have long and wide feet. New Balance sneakers tend to be too wide and awkward looking. These do not give my feet a giant looking appearance, which I enjoy. I have walked about 30 miles in them so far and haven't felt any pinch at all. Highly satisfied and definitely recommend.

I'm loving this shoe! I stopped wearing this particular series when the 2140 came out because it aggravated my Achilles tendon. I have been wearing the Brooks GTS series since then, but I must say I was pleasantly surprised with this one. They are both supportive and cushiony. I am 5'10, about 170 and wear a women's size 12 to 13 depending on the shoe. I bought this one in a 12.5. The shoes hug my heels without coming up as high as previous Asics models -- yay! I have run in them 4 or 5 times now and my feet feel great. Just a note, I have really narrow heels and a wide toe-box. In addition, with the exception of my pinky toe, all of my toes are almost the same length. So, these comments are from someone with fairly distinctive fit requirements. Hope this helps!

Very comfortable shoe. So hard to find narrow shoes in size 12 - these were great! Very good arch support for moderate pronation. Would definitely buy again!

I bought these without trying them on anywhere first. I have had this same type of shoe for three pairs now. I live in the middle of nowhere so Zappos helps a lot. They seem to fit very similarly to my last pair although I like the look of these better. They are not quite as comfortable yet but I think it is just because I need to break them in.

This shoe is incredibly comfortable and durable. They lasted me about 8 months, although I probably wore them a bit too long. Great if you tend to pronate.

Good running shoe. Much better colors than more pricey model. Slow shipping but maybe I'm just spoiled by Amazon Prime.

I liked these shoes very much and they were comfortable but they turned out to be too wide for my feet in the front and my feet were unstable so I returned them for another style of Asics. If your foot is wide in front and more narrow at the heel they should be great for you.

I wanted to love them but they were not cushioning enough for these old feet!

Nice shoe. Not as much "bounce" as the more expensive ones but I think that's to be expected.

I didn't really want to like these...I wanted to love my new Mizunos. But they quickly hurt my ankles and so had to return them. So I stuck with these. I should first say that I use them primarily for walking (3-5 miles/day). When I first started to wear them, they were cushiony, soft, had great support, and the few short sprints I did, my feet felt so cushioned and safe that it was amazing. However, I am noticing that it feels like the cushion in them has worn out quickly. My feet don't feel as cushioned in them as they first did. I've put in some inserts to help with the cushioning, but I would have rather not done that since it makes the fit very tight. I also have trouble with the tongue bunching up on the top of my foot, creating an uncomfortable walking situation. I like these shoes, but wish they were better. I did a lot of research before buying these, and most people have a lot of good things to say. Maybe I just have a defective pair? Who knows.

I'm a low level runner with a high arch and a penchant for a roomy toe box. After trying out about 5 pairs of minimalist running shoes, I decided to stick with my old favorites, the Asics GT series. The upgrades are wonderful, and the fit is the same as it ever was perfect. Thanks Asics for being consistent! The black and teal color combo is a nice change from regular white. The quality is great and I'm happy to say I think these will last me another couple of years (I wear my sneakers until they're falling apart). The minimalist sneakers were in contrast very flimsy (as they need to be) and very pricey.

I bought these in 11M in the plum/silver color. I have very narrow feet (measure a size 10.5AA), but these fit great because I have long toes. The shoelaces stay in place and fit tight around my narrow heel. I like them better than the Kayanos (I'm age 39) because I still want ankle/heel stability without having my feet entrapped in a shoe.

I love Zappos! Unfortunately these shoes were a little too wide for my narrow heel. But Zappos makes it so easy to order and return that I will continue to order from them. Thanks Zappos.

Good shoes. I have been wearing this type for the past couple years and so far they are the best for me. If I could change one thing, I would like them to be a little more fashionable maybe adding more color to the shoe.

I found this to run 1/2 size too small. I have wide feet so this may be the reason I need a larger size.

Nice shoe, but the width runs really narrow. I ordered a EE and it was not even close.

Love the look and they felt comfortable right away. However they seemed tight by the end and I developed corns. So order a bigger size than you normally would.

These are the most comfortable long-distance walking shoes I have ever had. However, I will line the toes of my next pair with duct tape because there is not enough reinforcement on the top of the toe, causing holes on the top long before the rest of the shoes wore out. No -- they were not too short. Please, Asics, redesign these to reinforce the top of the toe!

I like these shoes, but they are not as comfortable as I had hoped they would be. I have feet that really need some cushion and these definitely don't have that. I was hoping I didn't have to go buy some inserts again, but I might have to if I want the comfort.

This is the only shoe I wear, I have flat feet and an old injury not to mention size 10.5 feet. They offer good, but not too much support. The only negative is the fabric near the toe wears through.

I love the colors and the look of this shoe, plus the fact that it's available in narrow. But I never felt like it "felt like a dream" -- maybe because it's a stiff shoe. And I wish the arch support was more pronounced. It does fit well otherwise though, and that's a challenge for my feet.

I wear this Asics GT-2160 all the time. I have not found a more comfortable, supportive shoe that can come close to this shoe. I find the black, which I’m not sure why, fits the best. I'm sure the other colors will do the trick as well. You will not be sorry.

I loved this sneaker's fit, feel and looks. However, I have excessive swelling of my feet and ankles and the problem with this particular shoe is that the tongue does not have the extended flap part of the tongue that is attached to each side of the shoe. So when I put it on, instead of my upper foot being somewhat hidden by the fuller flap, the tongue on this shoe sits in the middle of the top of my foot and you can see my foot on either side of the tongue. I am reluctantly sending them back. Hopefully, with Zappos generous free S&H/Returns policy, I will eventually find sneakers that will work for me.
