The GT-2000 9 is a relatively small iteration on the GT-2000 8, with the most obvious difference being a new all-in-one mesh upper, which is softer and slightly lighter. This amount includes seller specified domestic postage charges as well as applicable international postage, dispatch, and other fees. To avoid damp feet, and therefore dampened spirits, a GORE-TEX membrane resides inside the shoe; supplying a combination of durable waterproofing and optimised breathability. The reduction in seams reduces the risks of chafing and irritation so you can go further for longer in complete comfort. GEL technology cushioning generates excellent shock absorption, while a layer of FLYTEFOAM material in the midsole creates a softer and more supportive feel at footstrike.

That stiff feel comes courtesy of the Guidance Trusstic System - a rigid resin plate that guides your foot so it rolls without twisting, helping reduce both underpronation and overpronation. Updated with a one-piece upper construction for an improved fit, the ninth incarnation of the GT-2000™ running shoe secures the top of the foot with a lightweight design and soft comfort.

We found our heel held securely in place by the internal clutching system, which resulted in no slipping or rubbing during runs, with comfortable cushioning at the heel.The latest addition to Asics' line of mid-range stability shoes, the GT-2000 9 builds on its predecessor with just a few thoughtful design tweaks, like a softer, more breathable upper and more comfortable ankle cushioning. I was able to test these shoes out mostly on roads and hard surfaces, including rainy wet days along with hot summer days--my feet felt comfortable with each step through it all. Obvious defects and imperfections are flagged and intercepted, while professional authenticators determine the legitimacy of each product and have their evaluations reviewed by a team before final approval.

The last thing a runner wants is for the shoe to feel like it is weighing them down, and the GT 2000 9 not only refrains from such a feeling but rather provides a bit of an extra bounce in the step!The Gore Tex upper is rendered in gunmetal gray while the sole and interior sport a flame red coloring. Gore Tex provides waterproofing capability and extends the envelope in which a shoe can operate and keep the runners foot dry. Asics claims that this is the largest GEL pad ever engineered into the GT series but it appears thinner than the GEL design in the GT 2170 shoe I tested earlier this year.
