Review on ASICS GT 2000 Thunder French Men's Athletic Running Shoes by Daniel Drury

Revainrating 3 out of 5

It was comfortable at first, but the sole and foam are too soft and short-lived.

I am 6ft 3cm, 220lbs and am a former US Marine and have been running in high end ASICS running shoes for over 20 years. I currently own at least three pairs including pumps; However, this is the second pair of new ASICS where the foam is too spongy and the sole pathetically thin. They feel good to try on, but the pads on my feet only lasted a few miles. Also, there shouldn't be any pain from a random pebble on the road. I paid for quality but they don't last long and I can't give ASICS another chance.

Pros
  • It was exactly what I was looking for, comfort and support.
Cons
  • May not provide enough lateral support for some runners.
