Review on πŸ‘Ÿ ASICS GT-1000 9 Men's Running Shoes by Joshua Castillo

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good shoes at a good price

I usually have a slight pronation and big toe so I prefer EEE but with these I had to take a chance. The sock is a little tight, but I still feel comfortable. I'm not sure I would run a marathon in them, but for a few miles they do. The heels are a bit loose for my liking, I'm trying to adjust this with the lacing position to see if that helps, but again they're snug enough to be usable. Overall I think they are pretty light for a stable shoe, I feel like I have a good change of direction and I didn't get stuck in that straight line mode that you get with more powerful anti-pronation shoes. They are stable enough for me as a light pronator. The heel feels a little narrow and the heel feels a little high so I couldn't stop pushing off like I did on my Brooks Ghosts on take off. By far the best feature is the pillow. It's like running on air, in my opinion Asics are the best in the business of air riding. I love the style and they seem to go together pretty well. Materials are strong where they are needed, thin where they are not needed. I give it 4 out of 5, I might reconsider getting the heel to sit properly.
