Customer Reviews ASICS GT-2000 5

I've worn Asics for years. This shoe fell short of the quality and comfort I had in past shoes. Have to throw them out after three months because the padding around the ankle wore down to nothing, exposing the inner shoe and giving me blisters on the back of my ankles even with good quality socks.

I had hoped this would be a good fit, usually order up a size in athletic shoes from other shoes but these run very small! ordered wide but could hardly get my feet into them. toe is very tight and length is short. Have to return them and not exchange as asics has changed their fit so much I don't know what to order. Have the flux but have never been really happy with them. my old gel phoenix were the best!

What a disappointment! I wear a 6WW and was so happy to see a cute shoe in my size. My joy was quickly cut short when I put these shoes on only to find that they were narrower than some Ryka 6W shoes I tried! My toes were literally squished on top of each other in these. I could not wear them at all. I will be returning these and hope that someone on the Asics design team starts focusing on fit as well as looks!

Just went for a short run in these, first time wearing them, and it felt like I was wearing toaster ovens on my feet! My feet were burning up!! I had to keep stopping on my run because the heat was so much that I could not focus and enjoy my run at all. There is no ventilation whatsoever. I did not have this problem with my Asics GT 1000. However, they are very comfortable (just a tad bulky around the heal). Maybe if you don't live in a warm climate like California, or will only be doing gym workouts, these shoes might work for you. I will be sending these back, sorry Asics, but please make sure your shoes are breathable.

When these arrived, I was surprised at the construction. The white and pink design is either glued-on plastic or paint. It looks low quality and doesn't have any stitching, so I wondered how long it would last. One month later and it's begun to peel.

I've been wearing this shoe for years, loved the comfort and arch support. Unfortunately this year they changed the shoe and there is no room in the toe. I ended up with tremendous foot pain. Beware!

Should have relied on the comments more. These are running very short. Will have to reorder another size up.

I was a PE teacher and always bought Asics sneakers. For the past couple years I have not been able to find a pair that fit my feet. My feet have gotten wider, but even the EE are to small. What happened to the sneakers that I loved so much? so disappointed.

These were a size small, the EE width was narrow and the toe box is so shallow it rubs the top of your toes. Too bad cause they were cute but I couldn't event try them on they were so Ill fitted

Asics has definitely not fixed their sizing problem. I compared these to my 2000-2 and same size is much smaller in the new "5" version.

Ridiculously short (followed size instructions which were equal to previous purchases) and very gaudy.

I love ASICS but this shoe did not match the sizing and comfort I am used to getting in their shoes. Have worn them for a week trying to break them in but wish I had returned them. Not recommended!!!
