Featuring the innovative 3D GUIDANCE SYSTEM, these trainers offer an exceptionally smooth stride transition, though some runners may find the supportive structure firmer than purely neutral racing shoes.

FAQs
Is the GT-2000 13 suitable for flat feet?
Yes, the 3D GUIDANCE SYSTEM provides the structural support often recommended for those with flat feet or those who overpronate.
How long should these trainers last?
Typically, running shoes provide optimal support for 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and body weight.
Can I replace the insole with orthotics?
Yes, the sockliner is removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if required.
What is the primary difference between the GT-2000 and the Gel-Kayano?
The GT-2000 is typically a lighter, more versatile daily trainer, whereas the Gel-Kayano is designed with maximum support and maximalist cushioning.
Are these shoes vegan-friendly?
While the shoe incorporates recycled materials, ASICS does not explicitly label these as vegan; please check the material composition for specific details.
Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort or pressure points
Adjust the lacing tension through the eyelets to allow for more volume in the midfoot area.
Rapid wear on the outsole
Check your running form for excessive dragging and ensure you are rotating your shoes with another pair to allow the foam to decompress.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, verify your UK sizing (this model is UK 8.5) and ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. When cleaning your GT-2000 13s, avoid machine washing or drying. Instead, remove surface dirt with a soft brush and clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry them naturally in a cool, shaded area away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can degrade the midsole cushioning materials.
