Customer Review: A testament to the importance of a seemingly subtle difference
This (Asics GT-2130) is a just-out-of-production (2008) model of a very popular line of running shoes produced by a very reputable company, and there are still many new pairs available at reduced price on the market. I benieve many runners share my habit of buying last year's model at 30-40% discount, so am writing this for those who do the research. Each pair of feet and gait are different, so it makes much more sense to disclose my condition for your comparison. I am a recreational runner and average 25-30 miles per week, mostly on a treadmill. I am 5'10" and 168 lb, and belong to the the majority of runners with normal arch and mild overpronation. I loved Asics GT-2110 (great stability and roomy toe box) so much that I bought four pairs of them for training and long distance road races. Knowing how difficult it is to find a pair of suitable running shoes, I searched for long to find its replacement. Asics GT-2130 has received good reviews, but one never knows whether these reviews actually apply to one's own feet. By now, I have run in my first pair of Asics GT-2130 for about 150 miles (20% on asphalt, 80% on treadmill) and found two very specific deficiencies - (1) small toe box, and (2) weak forefoot cushion. My conclusions were drawn from comparison with its predecessor - GT-2110. I developed black toenails (subungual hemorrhage), blisters on and behind toes, and pain in medial aspect of ball of foot (metatarsalgia) in GT-2130. At first I thought I rushed to long runs in the new pair, but these problems continued after they have been well broken in. With a scheduled marathon coming up, I switched back to a pair of my old GT-2110 and these problems went away. I felt and inspected the insoles of the two and saw the small but definite difference. If your running feet are prone to blisters on toes, black toenails and metatarsalgia, I would advise you to pass on Asics GT-2130. Don't be mistaken, I love Asics and still regard its many products the best there are. But I am convinced that the forefoot design of GT-2130 was worse than that of GT-2110. I hope this is just a 2130-related issue and the update (GT-2140) is much better, but I have yet to try them to find out. Runners - Pain is inevitable but suffering is optional.
Customer Review: Flatfeet's Best Friend
I bought the GT-2130 running shoes and they feel great. This is my second pair of Asics. My introduction to Asics was the 1130 running shoes which were very comfortable and i have flat feet which isn't an issue with these shoes. Great shoe at a great price. Thank you Amazon & FogHog for the prompt service. I ordered these on Feb.12th & had them a week later. If there is ever a doubt about Asics quality, rest assured you are getting a durable shoe that wears well over time. I would recommend this to anyone looking to spend their hard earned dollars on a product that lasts.
Most of your week is spent inside, under artificial light, breathing recirculated air. It's no wonder then that you want to get outdoors on the weekend. This shoe offers the grip and speed you need to experience the outdoors, at an affordable price.

This running shoe from Asics is packed with comfort technology! DuoMax®, a proprietary system with two different density midsole materials, helps prevent overpronation, while the Impact Guidance System encourages a smoother stride.

The Bean Pod utilizes a simple design and sturdy, lasting materials that result in a flexible worry-free Nike+ Sensor Holder. Made by a runner for runners, the elastic stretches with the movement of your foot for a comfortable run while still providing a tight fit to maintain an accurate read. The No-Velcro design ensures that your Nike+ Senor will not be lost due to dirt and debris building in the Velcro or simply bumping into something on a walk or hike - problems that all Velcro designs cannot avoid. The Bean Pod Nike+ Sensor Holder also allows easy access to your sensor so that it may be switched from Pod to Pod without untying your shoelaces. Each pack comes with 2 Bean Pods because most runners have more than 1 pair of shoes.
