The GT-2000 9 is a lightweight, cushioned stability running shoe for people with gaits ranging from neutral to overpronation. The uppers have been redesigned with a one-piece mesh made from recycled materials. ASICS’ FLYTEFOAM and GEL technologies are used to provide lightweight cushioning and attenuate shock.I’m a 64-year-old male distance runner. I’ve been running competitively since 2014. I’ve completed numerous 5Ks and half marathons and I’ve completed 6 marathons, including the NYC Marathon. I’ve qualified for the Boston Marathon several times, although I haven’t ever run it. My training includes 30 to 40 miles of running each week. I replace my running shoes 3 or 4 times each year. I’ve tried several brands of running shoes but most of my shoes have been ASICS shoes. I like the ASICS shoes because they work well for me and I think they’re a good value.I’ve tried several models of ASICS shoes. I need a shoe that corrects for overpronation. I used to wear the GT-1000s but I started wearing the GT-2000s a couple of years ago because I feel like they provide better cushioning. That’s important to me since I’m older and I run a lot of miles.I know ASICS occasionally makes changes to the GT-2000 shoes but they seem to be pretty consistent from pair to pair. The only thing I don’t like in my most recent pair is the laces. They feel like they’re made from some type of synthetic material. I always double knot my laces and I haven’t had any problems with them coming untied or being difficult to untie. I just don’t like the way they feel.In a couple of months I will be ordering my next pair of running shoes and I expect they will also be ASICS GT-2000s.
