New and improved! The updated version of this product is now available.
ASICS GT-2000 v12
Features
Whether you are running long or short, speedwork or run/walk intervals, the ASICS GT-2000 v12 can handle it all.
This stability shoe is lightweight and smooth, so you will hardly notice that it is underfoot. ASICS updated the cushioning to make it softer with a more energizing toe-off. Runners loved how light and nimble these shoes felt in our ASICS GT-2000 review. The stability technology makes this an ideal choice for those with flexible arches or who overpronate. Plus, with its sleek new style, it looks as good going out as it feels on your run.
Features
- Upper: Engineered mesh upper with an improved lean-back Achilles construction around the heel to prevent irritation.
- Midsole: The FF Blast Plus™ cushioning creates a softer overall feel while producing a more energetic toe-off. It is combined with ASICS PureGEL™ technology in the rearfoot that helps for softer and smoother transitions.
- Stability: ASICS’ 3D Guidance System™, which includes a wider base, increased heel bevel and increased forefoot flare. It creates advanced stability for those who overpronate and gives you smooth transitions.
- Outsole: AHARPLUS™, a durable rubber for high-wear areas. It has a full ground contact to help with stability. AHAR™ low-density outsole is also used to save weight and increase flexibility where it is needed.

What’s New
This has been the year for major changes to ASICS shoes and the GT-2000 v12 is no exception. ASICS added the FF Blastâ„¢ Plus cushioning to the new version, making it softer underfoot and giving it more energy at toe-off. Plus, they added 1 mm of additional midsole stack height. In the heel, new PureGELâ„¢ technology is 65% softer than the previous gel, which provides advanced impact absorption.
ASICS updated the stability technology to their 3D Guidance Systemâ„¢, which includes a wider base, full-ground contact design, and increased heel bevel/forefoot flare to give you smooth transitions.
They also made the upper sleeker and more modern, including redesigning the heel with a lean-back Achilles construction that flares to reduce irritation against the back of the foot.

Reviews
Love this shoe!
Excellent quality and comfort! It comes in Wide which I needed. (With age your feet spread out.) This is perfect for my everyday use. Looks great too.
Worse sneakers ever
These were the shoes that were supposedly best for my feet based on the scan. They are supposedly not rockers. They were extremely uncomfortable and my knee was in extreme pain after wearing these. Sadly I had to return them.
Great shoes!
Very supportive shoe helps with plantar fasciitis!
Bouncy
Very comfy bouncy even! Also purchased running insert that customized fit but cut a little bit of the bounciest.
Pleasantly Surprised
I've been running in the GT-2000 for a while with my most recent pair before these being v10. I loved v10 and was really skeptical of all the changes in the v12 model. However I took them out for a few runs last week and I have to say I have no complaints. I was wary of the wider base and new tongue design since I have such a narrow foot but with proper lacing my foot is secure and these feel fantastic.
Narrow not very narrow!
Still too wide for my narrow feet. ASICS used to have great narrow width shoes but that has changed.
Service and
I was very pleased with the service as well as the product.
Quality athletic shoe for walking or running
Quality shoes that fit my feet and look great. Thank you for ordering.
Happy feet!
My feet are very comfortable in my new pair of ASICS. Small improvements from my last pair which were vs 10 that make a difference. Enjoying my ASICS very much! Fleet Feet has been very helpful in making recommendations for the right shoe for my feet.
