Asics GT-2000 14 W

The Asics GT-2000 14 are training shoes with support for runners who need moderate stability. They are designed to offer a smooth and responsive ride, with a lighter and more modern design compared to previous versions. Their versatile profile makes them an ideal choice for both daily training runs and long races.

These shoes are ideal for runners with pronation or a neutral gait who need some support without sacrificing comfort. They perform well across a wide range of distances, from 10K to the marathon, especially for lightweight to medium-weight runners. Their cushioning and stability make them a good choice for frequent runs and for those seeking protection on long runs.

The upper is made from a technical woven mesh that combines structure, fit, and breathability. The design offers a more streamlined and aerodynamic fit, with good midfoot support thanks to the asymmetrical tongue that prevents slippage. The heel counter provides additional support and stability. Furthermore, recycled materials have been used in more than 50% of the upper, helping to reduce environmental impact.

The midsole incorporates FF BLAST PLUS foam, providing lightweight and responsive cushioning. In the heel, the PureGEL system enhances shock absorption without adding weight, while a trampoline-like unit in the forefoot increases energy return during toe-off. The 3D Guidance system provides structural support by guiding the foot's natural movement, ideal for runners with slight pronation.

The sole combines highly abrasion-resistant AHARPLUS rubber in the heel with AHAR LO in other key areas to reduce weight while maintaining durability. The sole design promotes flexibility and a smooth transition, although it uses less rubber than previous versions, which improves lightness but may slightly compromise durability under heavy use on asphalt. Grip is optimal for dry, urban surfaces.
