ASICS Men's GT-1000 7 Running Shoes

Comment

Asics is my favorite shoe brand. I can stand all day without my feet hurting which is very important to me because my job requires it. I have 3 pairs of Asics, my everyday shoe I wear to work, a pair of old beat me ups, and this shoe that I purchased strictly for the gym. I go to the gym 2-3 days a week and I do walking, biking, and lifting in them and they feel amazing! Even after standing all day at work these feel great all throughout my gym session.

I run 7 miles a day, indoors, in neutral shoes (Nimbus or Cumulus). Over the past few months I developed a minor case of Achilles Tendinitis and plantar fasciitis. I decided to switch from a neutral and try something with more stability. I wanted something cheap and without overstated arch support. I found these GT-1000 for $67. As soon as I slipped these on I noticed a perfect amount of snug mid sole support (the arch support is not overly sized). The toe box is spacious and the ride is exceptional. The cushion has a little more give than Nimbus (a plus) and I think the ventilation is better. I believe these are heavier, but its not an issue for me since I run relatively short distances. Ive only run in these for a week, so the verdict is still out. Overall, theyve made a great first impression.

When I was young and thin I wore hard to find Mens narrow shoes and sneaks for about 15 years. Now Ive been wearing standard width mens 11 shoes and sneaks for 20 years. I can honestly say the toe box on these running shoes is too narrow. It pinches and feels like Ive put my normal width feet into a narrow shoe. Ive had perfectly normal toe width previous running shoes from Asics, Saucony, others, and most recently New Balance. I just think Asics went too narrow in the toe in this one model this one time. Ill still buy Asics in the future. They make a good Running shoe.

As a distance runner for 15 years, i developed serious plantar fasciitis, and eventually trashed my right achilles, thus ending my running. Aside from occasional pain at the injury site on my achilles. I swore by Saucony Hurricanes as a runner, but switched to one of the earlier asics gel series, for a time. They were terrific. The only reason i didnt continue using them, was that they were harder to get, at the time. However, I now have a job which requires me to be on my feet for long periods of time, and to remain in good shape. This aggravated my injuries, and i knew it was caused by my street shoes and sneakers. The Sauconys i could use for my condition are all pretty ugly, so I looked for a hipper sneaker that matched my style, while solving all my pain issues. Right off the bat, the Asics GT10000 7s did the trick, and look good with everything from sweats to jeans.

This product was quite satisfactory, sole did not seem quite as rigid as the other gt1000 models all proceeding the "-7" model. I hike hundreds of miles and have relied on the asics gt500 gt1000 and gt2000 models for some time. The sole rigidity issue was resolved after adding the superfeet insoles and these shoes are now performing very well. Since I always use these inserts i would buy this model again.
