This is such a pretty sneaker! I just wish my orthotics fit in them. I guess the point with Asics is that you shouldn't need an orthotic....

I bought the GT 2000 originals years ago and loved them. I use athletic shoes rarely but usually for walking, light exercise, or when I have bad foot days (I have plantar fasciitis and morton's neuroma in my left foot), so it took some time but they finally needed replacement. I originally made the mistake of falling for the hype of the Brooks Adrenaline GTS 20's. Bought them, wore them around the house, and I hated them, so back they went. These Asics are everything I want--supportive arch, soft heel strike, cushy toe off, and a snug over all fit so it felt like an extension of my foot. The Brooks were lose everywhere and I felt like I was wearing a shoe, an experience I don't like. The Asics hug the back and mid of the foot while leaving enough room for the toes to breathe. The first time I wore these out I didn't even realize I was wearing them until halfway through the day, they were so supportive and comfortable. Usually I wear sandals and even the small toe scrunching gives me some pain after a while. But these were phenomenal.
The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because I feel like the heel grip could have more padding and hold me more securely than it currently does but I do have narrow heels so it could just be a "me" issue. Otherwise everything about this shoe is amazing. You can feel the gel cushion yet feel very grounded with each step. And they're not excessively bulky or heavy.
In terms of sizing, I guess they do run small? For sandals and heels I'm a 6, for boots I'm a 6.5, and in these I'm a 7.

Comfortable fit. Would like the sole to be a solid color (dark pink)

Great support and comfortable. Not as lightweight as I'd like but extremely pleased otherwise!

Really nice trainers, amazing colour and very comfy! My running times have improved a lot since I started wearing them (5km and 1km interval times). I'm usually a size 7 in most shoes but sized up to a 7.5 and they fit perfect, would definitely recommend sizing up by 0.5 or 1 size. Service was great and they were delivered quickly, even in a pandemic!

Little bit tight at first but will loosen off. Very comfortable shoe, makes long runs feel less laboured!

Love these shoes. Had older version of these trainers and lasted over a year with many many running miles.

I always wear the same size in Asics shoes, even in differing styles. These shoes have a much smaller toe box and were so tight I could barely get them on. I would say that they run a half to full size smaller than other models. I ordered the exact same size in a gel kayano model and they fit like a glove, as they always do!

Fabulous shoe -- except the toe box is very shallow above the big toe. I could only wear it for about a half hour. Sigh.

Very comfortable and good support. My daughter suggested that I try Asics a number of years ago. Since then I only wear Asics.

Reluctant to give anything this expensive a five star rating, hence the four stars, but I am really pleased with these trainers. Bought them as an overpronator following an ankle sprain and they do feel supportive. They are very comfortable, feel secure and haven't rubbed at all. Delivery was prompter than predicted, despite lockdown in the UK. Would recommend.

Good shoes! Only issue is the toe box is a little small. But once I break them in they'll be fine. They also have a lot of cushioning which I need for my bad knee. I've used them on a 6 mile run and they did great!

First pair of asics running shoes I've owned and I like them overall. They feel supportive and are wide enough for my feet, not super cushy but I knew that would be a trade-off for a more structured shoe going in. I wish there was a little more arch support and that there were more color options, but overall it's a good shoe and I'm happy with the purchase.

Ordered a half size larger, after reading the reviews, and I'm definitely glad I did. They fit just right. I've had a bit of heel pain, while breaking them in, but it has diminished each day I wear them. I have severely flat feet and sinus tarsi syndrome in my left foot, so these shoes have been helpful so far, with arch support and stabilization for my ankle. Glad I made this purchase!

Super comfortable from first wear- no cuts, blisters. The back cushioning is much better than my old pair. A little heavier than I expected. Support not as good as my last pair.

They feel looser than the series 6 I had of
these. Still breaking in the new shoe, but so far no pain or issues post-run.
