Great high mileage joggers
These joggers fitted perfectly.They are incredibly comfortable and supportive.The cushioning is the best of any jogger I have worn.They are very stable when jogging on non sealed surfaces such as grass and sand.They have excellent breathability and do not get hot or sweaty.The lacing system works very well and enables a snug fit.I have had many admiring comments on the colour scheme.A refreshing change from the standard white shoe.They are one of the best value high mileage joggers on the market.

Asics is still the BEST!!
I've had Asics shoes since I started running, switched from them to Nike's, Reebok's, and New Balance's to try a different feel, and optimistic choice. But nothing ever comes close to the comfort, performance of my Asics, I have several models including this new one which is so far doing what all the GT Series I've owned before do well. Proper Heel comfort and no pain what so ever!!Asics to me is the true Runner's shoe, I run every day 5 or less miles, and if I'm not trailing on my other Asics the GT is my choice for pavement pounding domination.. Uphill, or extreme fast downhill it serves me right and never lets me down. So good that I use another set specifically for everyday work, I am a Service Advisor for Honda and I walk everyday through in and out of the Service Bays and work areas, they are stress free and feel like pillows to me..Give it a try you won't be dissapointed... Asics 5 Stars!!

Durable and comfortable shoes
I used my first pair of ASICS GT-2160 shoes for about two years, typically five days a week. Then I asked a trainer where I exercise if there was a recommended period of use after which replacement for this type of shoe is recommended. She suggested replacement after one year of the use I was giving the shoes. Shortly after our conversation, the new ASICS GT-2160 shoes arrived. I felt a little guilty about abandoning the older shoes, but my feet are telling me it was a good move. I expect the new cushioning will keep a spring in my steps for at least another year.

Item review and order management was just perfect.
Cushioning, stability and appearence was better than expected. I run from 70-130 KM at week and my 10KM PR was 39:41, I expect to have a 17:30 for 5KM this Dic 24th. My Asics Gel 2160 will be with me during this special moment. i am 43 years old and i have been running for two years now. my goal is a marathon under 3 hours in six more months, that's why i need this type of quality running shoe.

Great comfort--doesn't give sharp heels blisters
So this review will target those people with sharp heels like me. I get blisters with most shoes if I don't wear two pairs of socks--NOT THESE! They are so padded and comfy that I can wear regular cotton socks, not even the special workout Nike or adidas ones, and I won't get hot spots! If you don't like very comfortable and padded running shoes, go somewhere else. I sweat a TON and these do well with that too. I put little gel insoles in these to make them extra comfy but NOT necessary by any means. Also they look much better than the other brands at the exact price. ASICS was born a running company (Nike did not) so I trusted them. I had a first pair, those got stolen and I immediately bought another pair of them. I've had blue and red--both look great! I also have fairly wide feet (not hobbit-wide) and these are perfect. They also have the grey band on the instep which means I'm a pronator.

Solid, reliable, stylish, but pricey and needs update
This is my 2nd pair of 2160s after having had the 2150 and 2140 before that. As a runner, I'm following the rule of don't change what works. I'm actually not convinced it's this shoe model that enabled me to maintain a running program finally free of shin splint pain. It might be, or it might be the Superfeet insoles I use in them.The GT-2160 has a very well-designed sole that wears well and strikes the road with the right feel of stability, comfort, and weight. I like how it looks, and although I mainly use it as a dedicated running shoe, I do walk around in them and never suffer any foot fatigue specifically from this shoe, like I would from others.My biggest complaint may have more to do with a defect in my own feet and toes, more so than this shoe. I tend to raise my big toe upwards while running and walking. The Asics GT-2160 have a very thin mesh upper. Every pair of this line I've owned, winds up with holes near where this toe raise occurs after around 5 or 6 months of wear. This could be prevented if they would have designed a slightly larger outer protective area near the big toe. There is an added outer layer meant for this, but it falls about a half inch short, in the spot I need more material to avoid this issue.Otherwise, the rest of the shoe holds up very well. I just completed 450 miles of training on the prior pair, which I now use playing around the yard with my kids and short walks. I ran a 3:40 full marathon in this new pair I just bought, a personal best, my 3rd marathon at age 40. So I can't complain much, and I'll stick with this model, but wish it was about $20 cheaper, as I think this level of running shoe technology should be. $95 every 6 months for mostly mesh and hard rubber.

Really good shoe!
I ran my first half-marathon with these shoes, and they performed wonderfully. I'm on my third pair, they are still great. Do go to a "running store" and run on a treadmill in them first to make sure they are right for your foot. I run rather evenly (no pronation or supination), and these shoes are great. My only gripe is that I wore a hole in the big toe area, and some of the rubber on the bottom started to peel off around 300 miles. If you plan to use them as a "hangin' around" shoe after their life as a running shoe, they may not last long. I may try another shoe in the future, but for the price, comfort, and fit, these shoes are great. :)

Mein Sohn liebt diese Schuhe
Ich habe meinem Sohn schon vor Jahren das erste Paar von Asisc gekauft. Er hat sie getragen, bis diese auseinanderfielen. die neuen gefallen ihm genauso gut. Er liebt sie sozusagen.
