Customer Reviews ASICS GT-2000® 7

Insufficient arch support for my Hugh arches.

I have been looking for a shoe to use in my fitness class, and I hoped that this would be the one. Nice looking shoe, but even though it was an 8.5, I felt it was more like a 7.5 narrow. I could barely get my foot in, and then I had no room. I have an older pair of Asics that I love and they are an 8.5. I normally wear an 8.5 in most other shoes. I have tried several Asics in the past few weeks and they are all small. I tried a 9 in 1 style and it was to big!!! Go figure. I don't know what has happpened to Asics sizing, but it definitely doesn't seem to be working for me. I liked the look of this shoe, but am afraid to try a 9. I am going back to the drawing board. My old ones are getting pretty bad so I hope to find something soon. Thanks Zappos for the nice and easy buy and return policy. I am beginning to feel like I have my own shoe store going on here.

I'm a 10.5 narrow. Got the 11B and they fit great except for the lack of arch support. There is none. Luckily there is plenty of room for my orthotics.

I have worn Asics for years. Specifically, the GT 2000. About 2 years ago they narrowed the toe box and I had to switch to the Flux. Last year, apparently, they discontinued the Flux so I tried the GT 2000 again. I tried it in two sizes, having to order both times since they have a major problem with distribution in NC. The new 2000 is wider, but something is off with the lace area and it is very uncomfortable. FYI, I have had surgery on both sides of my feet, so I am hard to fit, but I wore this style for years with no issues. I have ordered another type to try, so crossing my fingers. If this doesn't work, I will be shopping for a new brand. Very unhappy after 10+ years in this brand. Why change a good thing? As for the distribution in this area, they are losing a lot of customers to other brands, I am sure.

They fit well and felt snug but also stiff. I thought they'd just need to be worn a few times to break them in but still stiff...so much that my ankle hurts every time i wear them. I don't think they're the best looking shoes, but I have weak ankles and these were recommended to me by my doctor. The funny thing is i bought the same exact model shoe, different color, from Amazon and they feel MUCH better. Wish i'd kept the box to return these.

I returned a 10.5 which was 1/2 size small. Returned, ordered the 11. Top of shoe pressed down on top of big toenail esp on right foot. Also, shoe materials seemed cheap, cheap, cheap. No more Asics for me. This pair is also going back. Love Zappos though and will continue to order here.

Have worn asics for years and was time to replace my walking shoe. Previous 3 pairs were perfect from day 1. This pair gave me blisters after 2 short walks. Like most products it appears a nip and tuck here and there to save material, increases profits. In the heal ,the support on my old shoes goes all the way to the top. On these shoes it stops part of the way up, which rubbed my heal. Shame.

I have always been an Asics customer until these last 2 purchases they hurt my feet so badly no arch support, no cushioning. I am truly disappointed because these were my go-to shoes.

I have now returned 5 pairs of Asics as they no longer fit like they used to. I have several pairs of 9/12s so started ordering up. The latest pair I returned was the worst. I order a half size up and they were so tight my feet ached after wearing for 5 minutes. I give up! What's going on over there, so disappointing.

This is the last of Asics I'll ever buy. This shoe (wide) has a shallow toe box, cuts in too narrow and is so stiff that I'm constantly aware I have constricting shoes on, poor cushioning and moderate arch support. I use to be able to order my size 8 regular width in any style of Asics- GT or Kayano series and be happy but a few years ago they changed the design and made the toe box narrow and shallow likely to look cooler but they lost this customer and others from what I read. I'm thinking of sending them back though purchased in April, as I hardly wear them. These are in D width.

I have been wearing the Ascics 2000 for many years. This pair, however, is causing terrible blisters on my heels despite thick socks and protective band aids. The problem seems to be the upper edge of a stiff heel cup which is digging into my heels . This seems to be a change compared to my prior Asics 2000s. To make matters worse, the heel area is less thickly padded than before. I'm very disappointed but I'm stuck since this issue didn't surface until the first time I wore them for a long walk. Otherwise I'd return them since I can't use them. :(

These hurt my feet!!! I was excited about them and wore them every day for about a 3 weeks straight, 5 miles on the elliptical. The only thing sore after my work outs were the bottoms of my feet! My feet have never hurt in ASICS before. Not sure what’s up with them. Buying a different style.

Love Zappos! Disappointed in this shoe. I've bought many Asics shoes over the years but lately have found them not as comfortable -not as much "gel" in the padding and has been difficult to find a wider toe area. My foot has not changed. Maybe it is time that I change to a different brand.
