Customer Reviews ASICS GT-1000 5

These are great running shoes! They offer great cushion and support for over-pronation, but are still lightweight. Plus, the color selection is really fun.

True to asics, fit and feel great right out of the box.

Super comfortable shoes! Lightweight & breathable with nice arch support. I bought the flash coral/white/peach melba color first & wore them for a couple months. I enjoyed them so much that I bought a second pair in mint/orchid/cockatoo. I have received quite a few compliments on them.

Very comfortable. I got a size 1.5 up to accommodate my orthotics and thick socks. Ample laces.

Liked this shoe. Fit true to size. Took my insert as well. Great support. Planning on getting another pair soon!

I love ASIC shoes! They fit true to size. And the wide width is perfect for my feet! I've tried other brands but nothing compares to Asics! I only by Asics!!

LOVE these! Can't believe I haven't tried Asics before! They are so comfortable. Definitely buying another pair!

This is a nice, comfortable shoe, but it does run small. It seems like all the new ASICS models are about a 1/2 size smaller this year. I'm returning them for the next size.

I have had several pairs of Ascis shoes out of their GT line. I've liked them all. These I use for day to day walking around, so I didn't want something in neon. The overall black look is unobtrusive, whereas the past black ones had a lot of white reflective stuff on them. So these are much more "stealth" shows and meet my needs well. I always use Superfeet in all my shoes, so between that and the built-in arch support, these are very comfortable, even with my arch pronation.

Love Asics! Great support, roomy toe box.

These shoes are amazing. I bought these for the support that I needed. I have noticed a difference in my walk and posture.

My second pair! Love them! I have a wide foot, high arch, arthritic back and hips. These actually SUPPORT my arch and are super comfy all day walking on a concrete floor at work. They give me the cushion and support I need.HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

AMAZING CUSHIONING. And for those of us with custom inserts, the cushioning is in the shoe itself rather than the removable footbed, which would do me no good.

I've run in them about 8 times so far, and they are fantastic. My normal size is 10, but I needed the 10 1/2 to have enough toe wiggle room for running. They are great for moderate over-pronation. They are well ventilated and don't make feet over-heated. They have a firm sole and some other running shoes are softer, but these feel like they will last. They were comfortable right out of the box. And for use in day-to-day, the all-black looks great - not too casual. I had tried about 5 other shoes before choosing these and am very pleased with them.

I went to try on workout shoes recently, thinking I would try something other than Asics - and came right back to the exercise shoe I've been buying for 10+ years. They are cushy and supportive, and are great for the treadmill, outside running, elliptical, exercise classes, or just walking around. I do find that the cushioning wanes over time and I need a new pair about every year. Excellent shoe!

Great shoe! Great support for an over pronator! Extremely comfortable and durable.

Like many women with wide feet I struggle to find an athletic shoe that does not look like a boat. These shoes are very nice looking and don't look too "momish." I have a very painful and arthritic big toe so I chose a shoe for an overpronator hoping it would direct the weight of my step away from my big toe. The arch helps to prevent my big toe from hitting the ground with too much weight on it and also diverts some of the pressure from my big toe when I'm pushing off the ground with each step. I walk 3 miles a day and in the past, had moderate toe pain after walking. With these shoes, I have minimal toe pain after my walk. In most shoes I wear a 7.5 W so that's what I ordered. They run a bit small in length and in the future will order these in a size 8 W.

Great shoe and great fit! I wear a size 11 and this running shoe is great out the box. Normally some shoes takes a while for my feet to get use to them but not this one. The GT 1000 is the only one I can comfortably run for over an hour with no heal pain.

I love Asic shoes because I can wear them and be on my feet all day and not be in pain in the evening when I finally have a chance to relax. These have just the right amount of cushioning, toe width, and stability for my work shoes. (which have to be solid black) Whether I'm standing at the counter for 8 hours or running between cars and trucks all day, my feet don't suffer!

These were much prettier than shown. The fit was perfect for my daughter.

I have been wearing ASICS for as long as I can remember. Although I only wear them for work, they are the only athletic shoe that works well with my custom orthotics and the way I walk. They do run 1/2 size smaller (my normal shoe size is 8. I buy 8 1/2-9. I have noticed this years style has less depth in the toe box so I got a 9.

Love these shoes!!! Previous few pairs I had were lower priced sauconys - thought they were fine. Decided to try the asics for once, both brother and sister in law wear these. I do a lot of exercise videos, and after 2x wearing them I am very glad for my purchase. Plus the aqua and coral color has got to be the most awesome color combo!!!!

Asics are my favorite running shoe and these didn't let me down! Ran a couple of miles the first time out. Four the next time. These don't take long to break in and feel like they've been worn many times almost right away.

Just what I was looking for...shock support without a huge price.

Purchased this shoe in black. I have had several pairs of 86 in the past. This is the best one so far. Roomie, great arch support, and very comfortable. Highly recommend
