Customer Reviews ASICS GT-2000 9

I wear a size 12 in a dress shoe, but have found I need to order one size larger in a running shoe, so I ordered this shoe in a size 13 wide. My feet felt as if they were wrapped tightly in duct tape.

What happened? A year ago I bought a pair of the GT-2000 8s, and they were sturdy, well-made, and served my moderate running needs for months. Then I bought these, and all the knee, ankle, and hip pains that I used to get from the crappy, cheapo shoes made by the other big names who outsource to Asia suddenly reappeared with these shoes. In short, they're garbage. Expensive garbage. Asics used to be my go-to for decent shoes when all the other brands were selling out quality, good materials, and workmanship for a fast buck. Apparently Asics has joined the crowd. Extremely disappointed in this product.

Shoe was small (4E width) where the laces start, not enough height. I have curled toes and arthritis in the mid-foot joint. I need extra width in the toe box and ordered these after earlier GT 2000 wore out. Disappointed these were tight.

Awful shoes feel like they are made out of the same material as $20 water-shoes with about as much foot protection from the top, the shoes run a whole size small both width and length, I will never buy from this brand again as they are expecting $120 for absolute garbage.
