Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

I loved the 2150s for years, and was extremely disappointed with the 2160s because they were heavy, stiff and too large in the heel in both width and height. I was convinced they contributed to a few injuries I experienced during my training with them. Obviously I hesitated in purchasing the 2170s, but the phone rep convinced me that all of my complaints were addressed in this new version - and he was right! The 2170s are lightweight, flexible, and the heel fit has been tightened up. I've been running on them for three weeks with zero complaints except that I wish that there were more color options for the D width (which hardly qualifies as a complaint).

I got this to train for a half marathon, it is a good durable running shoe. Very breathable, light and fits like a glove. I run on road, pavement, trails, and sand, a lot of sand, so the breathability lets in more sand but that comes with the terrain. I got custom soles to replace the ones it came with for my high arches, but my shins and knees don't hurt anymore. Great stability shoe, love the color, I got the grey and purple because of the red sand I run in everyday. I think their cool and cute. Love 'em!

I use these shoes almost every day, and they are really good quality in terms of supporting the foot and cushioning. They're a little heavy compared with shoes with less stability, but its definitely worth a few more ounces to not be in pain. I've been looking for a top quality shoe to help me bounce back from injuries, and these definitely deliver the support I need!

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

These running shoes needed no break-in time. They feel lightweight yet supportive and cushioning.

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

Mild over-pronator, shoe recommended by shoe store. I need a shoe with room in the toe box but a narrow midfoot, otherwise I slide all over the place. These have room in the toe but the midfoot is so loose my feet end up slopping around, which contributes to injuries. I also think they sized me up a 1/2 size too big. I doubt I will buy these again. I previously used Nike Pegasus and will probably go back.

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

Ordered these shoes after I wasn't happy with the Brooks GTS 12, and I was pleasantly surprised with these! Took them out for their first run on a 85 degree afternoon and they were incredibly comfortable/cushioned right from the box. Not clunky or awkward in the slightest, which was exactly what I was looking for. The only slight downside to these is that they are a bit on the heavier side, but the great cushioning makes up for that. Also, the purple/charcoal color is great!

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

I was a long-time Brooks Adrenaline/Trance user, until the newer models came out and no longer have the cushion and comfort I used to love. No problem-o...because Adidas has created the GT 2170s! I wear the DS trainers for shorter runs, and these for my longer training runs (over 10 miles). No break-in period needed, good stability and cushion. As previous reviewers have mentioned, do not size up when ordering these shoes.

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

I would ignore the 1/2 size up ordering advice! I'm a Kayano wearer, this will be my fourth pair, I was trusting the ordering advice and they were definitely too large. I wore them once at the gym to test on the treadmill and my foot was slipping all around in them.

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

I have been buying the Asics GT series shoes for about 6 years and have always loved their great cushioning with just enough stability to help prevent injuries (I'm a mild overpronator). Unfortunately, after just a few runs in these shoes I noticed that my feet HURT by about mile 3 or 4. The cushioning was not nearly as comfortable as in the 2160s and other previous models. I've seen other reviews online saying that the shoe is less stable as well, but I didn't notice that as much as the change in cushioning. I think Asics changed some things in their design from previous models(perhaps to make the shoe lighter in keeping with current running shoe trends?), but they definitely sacrificed quality in the process.

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

This shoe has great support. I have run in this shoe for many years and was extremely disappointed when they changed to the lighter models. No shoe compares to the Asics 2170. I have run 11 marathons and hundreds of miles in the 2100 series over the last 12 years. Would recommend to anyone looking for a great stability shoe. It won't disappoint! These shoes make my feet happy!!!

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

I bought these shoes a couple years ago and just bought another pair since my older ones are beginning to wear out. I have high arches and these shoes are perfect to keep my feet and ankles stable. I use this for all types of exercise in the gym and for running on the treadmill as well as on concrete and trails. Highly recommend!

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

Run 10K and half marathons. Shoe is great for road racing and mixed terrains.

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

I have worn Asics for years, and I'm reviewing these in hopes that Asics recognizes that the GT2000 should not replace the GT2170 shoes. They fit very differently. I've not had to break in shoes with the 2100 line, but the 2000's feel entirely different. They have a small toe box which can lead to problems. The 2170's and prior versions are great for runners who need stability and I know they were popular. Please do not discontinue the line.

Great shoe for pavement running, good cushioning and support

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

I have a narrow foot. Asics' style hugs my mid-foot but lets my toes wiggle free without being sloppy. I buy them over and over again!

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

I'm an ASICS fan and these haven't disappointed. I have several pairs and I'd buy them again.

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

I've been wearing the GT series since 2001. I think I may have started with the 2020's or 2010's. Anyway, they solved my shin splint issue on the very first run and go at least 350 miles before I feel shin pain. Anyway, I tried the new GT2000 series and do not likey!!!! There is less stability under foot. We used to use the term "board lasted" which was a very strong footbed to correct the overpronation. Asics moved away from board lasted after the 2060's (i think) but the shoe's new technology proved effective. The newly named series GT2000, I heard was just a name change and was convinced to buy them by a sales rep. Sadly, it is a major shoe change and I now have ordered three pair of 2170's in order to have a more solid made shoe. They should well become extincted at some point, but hoping Asics does something about this. Thanks.

You can't go wrong with Asics. I have never ordered a bad shoe! I run 28-30 miles a week.

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

I had knee pain, and doctors recommended I stop running and go to physical therapy, which would cost me $30 a session, 3 times a week. I bought these shoes and my knee pain was gone, I stopped limping and my runs became longer and more energized. Not to mention the custom insole - totally worth every penny and now I need another pair, because I cannot believe I wore these shoes for almost 4 years and they are just now starting to tear. This is after constant running in the grass, dirt, anywhere you name it! They are excellent. I hope they don't discontinue this brand.

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

I was a big fan of Adidas Supernova and have been looking for a solid replacement for several years. This is it. Great fit, stable, good support, and good looking. Using them for running and CrossFit and they're great.

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

For years I swore by Brooks addiction until they changed the model and I tried the Ascics at a running store. I was afraid the light weight would not give me enough stability for pronation and I am a heavier runner at 146lbs. I was so impressed by how it actually changed my stride and and keeps my ankle secure on landing. I am on my third pair. My only concern is the mesh at the toe box gives out first.

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn in my life! The only drawback is that my toes rub holes in the top, which I have patched w/ material and super glue and continued to wear until the rest fell apart. I have 2pr at all times:)

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

Love this shoe, sad to see it discontinued!

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

I will never wear anything but Asics! I absolutely love them. My favorite pair were the GT- 2150s, but have also worn the 2160s and now the 2170s. They seem to fall a little lower on the ankle, but I also put my orthotics in them which raises my foot up a bit. I love them!

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

This shoe provides excellent support yet remains lightweight. My favorite runner yet!

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

This is a great alternative at a great cost to the GT-2000 shoe, which has a smaller toe box. The 2000-2 is a good shoe, but the 2170 is a favorite. Both my husband and myself have bought more than one pair of these, and we bought four pairs of the GT-2160 shoe. Asics stays true to itself, and the ride is always consistent.

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

Love these series if shoes. Glad I was able to snag a last pair before getting new shoes.

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

I wear these shoes for taking classes at the gym, running on the road and on the treadmill. Great shoes--4th pair!

Comments about Womens ASICS GT-2170 Running Shoe:

I use this shoe for road and trail running. Comfortable with a good fit that gives a little room in the toe box. I've run these on pavement, sand, wet grass, gravel, rocky downhills, muddy uphills, from 5k's to 10 milers, and they handle it all. After submerging in ankle deep water a couple miles into my last 10k, water drained quickly and shoes stayed light. My all purpose go-to running shoes.

I love this shoe! It is perfect for my running style. Great cushion with great support!
