Asics GT 2050

Pros: durable, stable, very comfortable, good support, breathable, light
Cons: the exterior comes apart a little sometimes, but nothing that affects running

My experience in running started with high school cross country and track. At first I thought it was the most insane sport ever, and I couldn't understand why anyone would want to do it. Now people say that to me all the time and I just smile. I guess ...

Pros: Good price and durability
Cons: Fit and support were not right for me

These shoes were recommended to me by a friend who was training for a marathon as well. He told me they were:

1) Durable-good for the long distance runs and I wouldn't have to replace them as quickly as other shoes
2) A good stable ride...

Pros: Durable, comfortable, flexible
Cons: A little more expensive

Asics has been my running shoe practically since I started running two years ago. I'm currently running on my second pair of GT-2050s and am quite satisfied with them. I could go on about the technical details of the shoe, but then I'd look like a...

Pros: Arch support, lots of padding, breathable material
Cons: None

I've been an avid runner for nearly a year, and go through shoes every three months or so. My main priority when buying a running shoe is arch support, and the GT2050 had superior arch support over competitors at any price. Another big concern is...

Pros: good support
Cons: none

The 2050 is the newest in the 2000 series for Asics. This shoe falls into their moderate motion control category or good stability, depending on the magazine that is reviewing the shoe. The upgrades of the 2050 so far are going to be good ones.
...

Pros: Lightweight, well-fit, well-cushoined
Cons: A little pricey but worth it

Asics does it again. With their new GT's they have continued the tradition of great lightweight shoes. The 2050's are great for runners who want a cushoined well-fit shoe. But the great part about the 2050 is that it is also very lightweight, prior to...

Pros: lots of stability and cushioning
Cons: bulky in the back

Because I run two miles almost everyday, I need a shoe that will give me lots of support and durability. When I went to local running shoe store to buy a pair of shoes for track season, the person that worked there told me I had weak ankles and needed a...

Pros: Durability
Cons: Not the best looking shoe on the block.

I am running in my second pair of Asics GT 2050s and am thrilled with the durability of the shoes as well as a reasonable price at $85. I have worn out several pairs of Asics in the GT series, starting with the GT 2020, and have never been disappointed...

Pros: Durable, Supportive, Comfortable
Cons: Pricey, does not accept orthodics well

Hello, my nickname is Phishbrane and I am an overpronater.

I have also been running for sometime now and I compete at the collegiate level. The 2050 Gt is my current trainer. I've used many Nikes, the New Balance 852 and 851, Saucony Shadow...

Pros: Comfort, price, durability
Cons: none

The 2050s are the 6th pair of Asics shoes I've had, and the third in this product line; I had 2020s and 2040s. I have loved every single pair and will never wear another brand of running shoe or soccer cleats for that matter. Each pair I have had has...

Pros: Has a very supportive feeling.
Cons: Little stiff at first.

I have been running for many years, from Junior High, through six years of the military, and the past 10 years for health. During that time, I have suffered tremendously from the strain on my arches and knees. Sometimes, the pain was so bad that I...

Pros: Great price point, nice ride.
Cons: A little wider than the 2040

The new Asics 2050 has a great up grade from the 2040. With the shoes being more light weight, and a better heel to toe transition the shoe works for man people. Working at a specialty running shoe store I have fitted many people in this shoe....

Pros: comfortable and cool looking
Cons: none

I bough this shoe about a month ago and have been running on air ever since. This is the most comfortable running shoe i have ever used. It looks great on my feet and helps me reach my maximum running potential. I am a recreational runner. I like to...

Pros: Great support, durability, fit, price: set the standard for stability shoes
Cons: May not work for everyone

This review is actually about the 2060, which is this year's version of Asics 2050. The 2050 was probably the best stability shoe on the market with good arch support, hell and forefoot cushioning, great durability all at the reasonable price of 80-85$....

Pros: Depends on user
Cons: For me, lack of padding and stiffness

This is no real condemnation of the 2050, but I blew it when I bought a pair, thinking it was a reasonable replacement for my 2040s (the GT 2040 appears to be on its way out). Here are the problems I have with the shoe, which actually led me to replace...
