ASICS GT-2000 10 Running Shoes for Men

The product features a knit upper that provides a comfortable and supportive foot hold. The Rearfoot and Forefoot GEL Technology Cushioning System attenuates shock during impact and toe-off phases, allowing for movement in multiple planes as the foot transitions through the gait cycle. FLYTEFOAM Technology provides lightweight cushioning, while FLYTEFOAM Propel Technology, an energetic foam formulation, delivers supreme bounce thanks to a unique elastomer compound. The 3D SPACE CONSTRUCTION feature improves compression at foot strike.

The engineered knit upper offers good comfort and support without the need for traditional overlays. It is also lightweight and functional, helping to keep the feet cool. The updated midsole design implements FLYTEFOAM Propel technology cushioning to provide an extra popping forward sensation at the toe-off stage. A gender-specific 3D SPACE CONSTRUCTION unit under the heel and forefoot reduces the shoe's weight while enhancing cushioning and stability.

LITETRUSS technology is designed to improve midfoot integrity and medial side support, preventing excessive inward roll of the foot at mid-stance and setting the runner up for an efficient toe-off. The shoe is suitable for road running.

The heel-toe drop is 8 mm, and the weight is 280 g/9.9 oz. The shoe is designed for neutral and stability support.

For underpronators, the outside of the heel hits the ground at an increased angle with minimal pronation, causing shock to the lower leg. The push-off experience involves pressure on the outer toes, which can lead to conditions like plantar fasciitis, shin splints, and ankle strain. This foot type is associated with high arches.

Neutral foot types land on the outside of the heel and then roll inward, effectively absorbing impact. The push-off experience involves even distribution from the front of the foot. This foot type is associated with normal-size arches, and the risk of injury is lower due to effective shock absorption.

Overpronators land on the outside of the heel and then roll inward, transferring excess weight. The push-off experience involves pressure mainly on the big toe and second toe, which can lead to conditions like shin splints, plantar fasciitis, bunions, and heel spurs. This foot type is associated with low arches or flat feet.

The shoe provides stability, with a stable ride, controlled impact, and smooth transitions that guide the foot to the best position to help prevent injury. Similar stable shoes include the GT-1000 and TRABUCO CUSHION.

For comfort, the shoe offers cushioning to prioritize soft landings and impact absorption, helping to maintain comfort on longer runs. Similar cushioned shoes include the GEL-PULSE and TRABUCO MAX.

For energy return, the shoe has a bouncy, trampoline-like feel in every step, providing energy return that propels the runner forward. Similar energy-return shoes include the SUPERBLAST and DYNABLAST.

For racing, the shoe has a lightweight, responsive feel for a fast start and faster finish, helping to conserve energy when every second counts. Similar racing shoes include the METASPEED and MAGIC SPEED.
