I'm recovering from acl surgery and just got cleared for running. This one is great for shock absorption while still being able to feel my feet landing. And sooo comfy!!!!
Got them a month ago . Love them . Very comfortable to run
I bought these shoes for all around walking. My feet are almost flat and my ankle rolls. I have had no issues walking on sidewalks or the road (which is great!). However, when I went walking on some paths through the woods, my feet began hurting on the outside and the heels. So if you are just walking on sidewalks I would definitely recommend them, but not if you want a variety of walking location options. And as a side note, they are more prone to squeak on linoleum like basketball shoes so on the court, then any other athletic shoes I own.
I always wear the Gel kayano. I tried this style and was very disappointed. I have planter fasciitis and wouldn't recommend these sneakers if you have it. My foot hurt after wearing them for 2 days. The worse part of it all, is asics doesn't allow returns once you wear them. I don't live near a store so I couldn't try to take back there either. I will only order the gel kayano from now on. Other sneaker companies allow returns for reasonably wear.
I absolutely love these shoes. I typically order online and as a result, never quite sure how much I will like them until I get them. The GT-200 14 was exactly the style I was looking for and they are incredibly comfortable. They are "chunky" on the heel, which I love and I always get compliments when I wear them. I got the gray with white, and people seem to love the light gray shade. Great look, great comfort. Might buy a second pair.
The shoe is well-cushioned and felt comfortable when I first tried it on at the store. I bought a half-size up. When I wore it at home, I found that the shoe pinched and rubbed the outside of my foot, especially at the base of my pinkie toe. The width of the toe box seemed good, but the shape of the shoe made it so that foot was pushed all the way to the outside of the shoe. I’m planning to return it.
The GT-2000 14s are extremely comfortable—some of the most comfortable shoes I’ve tried. I really wanted to love them. Unfortunately, for treadmill running they felt a bit too platform-like, which made me feel slightly unstable, like I might lose my balance. Comfort-wise, they were outstanding, but I don’t need another pair of casual shoes in my rotation, so they weren’t the right fit for my needs.
I've been wearing the GT-2000 for many years and have always loved them, but the 14 feels like a completely different shoe. The roll from heel to toe takes so much effort that my ankles and shins are exhausted a mile into my run. I do like the cushioning on the 14, but overall I'm not enjoying my runs with these and will be looking for a new model.
The fit seems a little narrower than previous model but length is the same. Wish the heel area had the loop to make it easier to get into the shoe like last one or had the one like is on the new Kayano. With the elastic tongue on the shoe , these changes would help. The ride is great and easier to get forward. Makes you want to run more!
Anterior lateral front part doesn’t fit like other G2000 series. Been wearing the G2000 for the past 5+ years getting them every 6 mths to 1 year and the front toes near the pinky feels more tight. Uncomfortable which is a shame bc the G2000 has been a super comfortable fit and I stand at least 8-12 hours a day as a healthcare worker.
