ASICS GT-2000 13 - Black White Trainers - UK 11.5

Yes, the GT-2000 13 offers excellent cushioning and support, making it a suitable choice for marathon training and racing, especially for neutral or mildly overpronating runners.

While they offer comfort and support, they are primarily designed for running. For gym workouts, especially those involving lateral movements or heavy lifting, dedicated cross-training shoes might be more appropriate.

The GT-2000 series generally provides a balance of cushioning and support for neutral to mild overpronators, while the GEL-Kayano is typically designed for maximum stability and support for moderate to severe overpronators.

These shoes are ideal for runners with a neutral foot arch or mild overpronation. If your foot rolls inward excessively, you might benefit from a more stability-focused shoe. Observing your wet footprint or consulting a running specialist can help determine your foot type.

With proper care and regular use for running, the midsole cushioning typically starts to degrade after approximately 300-500 miles. The outsole and upper may show wear sooner depending on running surface and frequency.

The product information provided is for a standard width. Wide or extra-wide options may be available depending on the retailer and specific product variations.

Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly – not too tight or too loose. Wear appropriate athletic socks. If the issue persists, the shoe may not be the right fit for your foot shape or gait. Consider trying a different size or model.

Cushioning can degrade with significant mileage. If you've run over 300-500 miles (depending on your weight and running style), it may be time to consider replacing them.

Check the outsole for excessive wear. Ensure you are running on appropriate surfaces for the shoe's design (primarily roads). Clean the outsole if it's clogged with debris.
