Asics GT-2000 14 review: what runners say

Fit

True to size for the majority of testers. The regular version is standard width; a wide option is available for those needing more volume. The rigid heel counter can be intrusive for runners with sensitive Achilles.

Feel

Balanced ride between softness and energy return thanks to the FF Blast Max; the rearfoot is less refined than the forefoot, with heel-to-toe transition dividing testers. Stability is noticeable but not restrictive at training paces.

Durability

Outsole estimated beyond 600 km according to one source, with a projection up to 800 km for runners between 70–80 kg. One source notes faster outsole wear compared to previous versions.

Best for

Stable daily trainer for runners with mild-to-moderate overpronation, up to approximately 85 kg. Effective paces between 4'30" and 6'/km; not suited for pure speed sessions or racing.

Weak points

The heel is sharply divisive: the rigid counter and collar angle are cited for Achilles pressure. One source reports stability degradation as early as 80 km due to foam softening.
