The previous style of these running shoes was GT-2130 which won the hearts of many and now with this new style, the story is same. Also check out the latest style Asics GT 2170 Sneakers which are introduced recently. Its upper is made from mesh which provides best breathability and comfort. It has the 3M® reflective material which enables the visibility of these running shoes at the time of low light. The heel collar has the P.H.F.® (Personal Heel Fit) made from memory foam which molds as per the shape of athlete’s heel to provide best comfort. The insole has ComforDry™ which ensures that the inner environment of the shoe remains cooler and healthier all the time. To provide the correct velocity and degree of pronation, the midsole also has the DuoMax® technology which is made from the multi-density foam. The Impact Guidance System (I.G.S.®) allows the foot and the shoe to move and transition together which ensure best performance. The high impact areas of the shoe have the ASICS® Forefoot and Rearfoot GEL® Cushioning System which provides excellent shock absorption ability. The midsole also has the Solyte® which ensures durability and light weight along with the great bounce back. This shoe also has the Gender Specific Space Trusstic System® which makes a space between the midsole of the shoe and the Trusstic System®.

This style can be found in these colors: Blush/ New Navy/ White, Lightning/ Berry/ White and Turquoise/ Liquid Silver/ Lightning.
I was looking for a true fitting shoe as the previous brand I had been wearing for years was now too small. The Asics are a comfortable shoe that I need for work as I stand the majority of an eight hour shift. The only uncomfortable part of the shoe is on the opening of the shoe where your foot goes into the shoe. It seems a little high and rubs the inside of my ankles. Not sure if this counts for much but the shoe laces are already fraying by the eyelets, I have had them for 4 days. I find that a little disappointing as the shoe looks neat but the laces make the shoes look shabby.
