The GT-2000™ 4 shoe is the core runner’s bread and butter with its balance of cushioning and stability, outfitted by the comfortably supportive dynamic DuoMax® support system and guidance Trusstic system® technology that also enhance gait efficiency. Our Rearfoot and forefoot gel® cushioning systems are now even more adaptive, assisting mild to moderate overpronators alike with greater support, while the FluidRide® midsole offers the ultimate ride. In 1949, Mr. Kihachiro Onitsuka began his athletic footwear company (Onitsuka Co., Ltd.) by manufacturing basketball shoes out of his living room in Kobe, Japan. He chose the name ASICS for his company in 1977, based on a famous Latin phrase "Anima Sana In Corpore Sano," which, when translated, expresses the ancient ideal of "A Sound Mind in a Sound Body." Taking the acronym of this phrase, ASICS was founded on the belief that the best way to create a healthy and happy lifestyle is to promote total health and fitness. Today, ASICS offers a full line of performance-driven athletic shoes and technical active sports apparel and accessories dedicated to bringing harmony to the body and soul.

Great deal, true narrow fit
My wife bought these sneakers for her daily walks of about 4 mi. She has narrow feet and would rather not spend a lot on her walking sneakers and these fit the bill perfectly. In fact so much so, she's ordered another couple pairs. The sneakers were a but snug at first, particularly in the toe box, but with a little use became just right. They wear as expected.

Great shoes with great comfort & support,
These are great shoes. Lots of support and cushioned. They fit great right off the bat and I felt energized in them. I hesitated ordering my regular size with all of the reviews saying they run small. I normally wear an 8.5 and finally ordered that. They fit perfect but a smidge smaller and they wouldn't have. My advice would be if your are pushing the limit on your normal size you might want to order the next size up. Sometimes I fit into a size 8. So I really felt a 9 would be too big. I bought the black and light green w/yellow. I love, love, love the color combination!

Love ASICS but sizing has changed.
Too small. I always have worn the same size in ASICS until now. I am returning and buying a whole size larger. Had worn ASICS for many years as an RN on a busy hospital floor. First purchased when I had a painful foot that I thought was going to cause me to not be able to work till healed. But after buyiing an ASICS my foot got better even while working. The Kayano has a lot more padding and feels lush; but this version is not quite as padded. I am having to return this shoe though and buy a whole size larger. It is much too small. For some reason, this version is much smaller than in years past. I went to a shoe store and confirmed I would have to go up a whole size. I needed to buy these shoes because the Kayano version I bought is a little too small as well; but did not notice till after I had worn them for awhile and I develop great toe discomfort - totally related to being more narrow and shorter than I really need. Again, this is from the change in sizing. I know my foot has not enlarged because my older ASICS still fit. Addidas of the same size as I am now buying are much too large and did not have the padding of the ASICS. Even though I am now retired, I love the padding of the ASICS. The new Granny shoe?

My feet don’t hurt after work!!
This is a great shoe. They fit great. However if you have kinda a wider foot then get wide not the normal width. I have the same pair(so now I have 2 pair) but in a different color which I wear to work. I waitress. My feet do not hurt nor do my legs after my shift. They do great in the washer they come clean and do not tear apart. I air dried them so I don’t know how they hold up in the dryer.

These have been the most comfortable workout shoes I've purchased to date
These have been the most comfortable workout shoes I've purchased to date. I have flat feet and bunions that give me trouble so my feet hurt constantly. These shoes gave excellent support and a "spring" in my step so my feet don't get as tired or hurt after working out or wearing them for extended times. The arch support is firm but has just the right amount of give so they are super comfortable in the middle of my foot. My only complaint was mostly because of my bunions. The front of my foot is wide and these were a little snug at first until I loosened the laces. Once I did that they got perfectly. I could have also gotten a wide width, but they usually prove to be too wide in the heel area.TL;DR: these are super comfy for flat feet or people with other foot problems to walk, run or work out with extended wear.

Great shoe for an over-pronator like me
I've used the GT-2000 shoes over the last few years and have yet to have issue with them. I over-pronate pretty badly and this shoe offers great support for that issue; My knees thank me. I found the shoe to fit exactly true to size and for those reviews that say it's small, people tend to forget that your feet swell when you run, especially longer distances! My personal size foot is between a 6.5-7 and I typically wear a 7 shoe for running, dress, or sandals. I can't say I know the difference between the GT-2000 model numbers (1-5?) except for new-ness. I have no issue with wearing older models and like the cheaper prices. For reference, I run half marathons several times a year on city sidewalks, asphalt, dirt roads, and dirt trails.

Good looking slim fitting tennis shoe!
I really like that the tennis shoe colors are not so wild or too dark. Nice color combo of silver, turquoise, and green. This specific shoe is for VERY VERY VERY narrow width feet! I am a 7 AAAA/ AAA width (VERY VERY narrow) and these shoes were SO NARROW for me that I have to get a regular width-LOL! I am going with the regular width and it will fit my foot well. I also have to order a WHOLE size larger. I am normally a size 7 shoe and I have to get a size 8. If you have a WIDE foot just FORGET these shoes!! If you have a narrow foot order regular width. Keep that in mind. I did read other reviews and order a 1/2 size larger but truly you need to order a FULL size larger.
