ASICS Men’s GT-2000 13

The Researcher’s Take: Why We Like It

If your feet tend to roll inward (overpronation) and you need a shoe that corrects your form without feeling stiff or heavy, the ASICS Men’s GT-2000 13 is engineered for you.

Based on our analysis of the tech, ASICS has focused on “adaptive stability.” The headline feature is the 3D GUIDANCE SYSTEM. Unlike old-school stability shoes that felt like bricks, this system uses wider base nets and specific geometrical shapes to guide your foot naturally through the stride, providing support only when you need it.

Key Features Breakdown

• Advanced Stability: The 3D GUIDANCE SYSTEM provides a stable platform that helps create a smoother transition from heel strike to toe-off, reducing the wobble that leads to fatigue.
• Softer Landings: The rearfoot PureGEL technology is lighter and softer than previous GEL versions. In plain English, it absorbs shock effectively, protecting your joints on hard pavement.
• Secure Fit: The Jacquard mesh upper offers a supportive foothold while keeping the shoe breathable.
• Eco-Conscious Design: We appreciate the sustainability effort here. At least 50% of the upper is made with recycled content, and the sockliner uses a solution dyeing process that significantly reduces water and carbon emissions.
