Product Description
ASICS are back with their flagship running shoe... Now even more cushioned and even LIGHTER!... welcome to the new ASICS GT-2170 from the Spring/Summer 2012 range The 2000 series has always been favoured with runners for its fit, ride and stability, the GT-2000TM series just keeps getting better and better. Weight reduction combined with a larger Rearfoot GEL® Cushioning System improves an already amazing ride, and makes the GT-2170TM the lightest model in its storied history. The full length Guidance Line, a groove on the underside of the sole, focuses the runner's tread reducing energy wastage and fatigue. The main benefit of Guidance Line is a more efficient path through the gait cycle, but it also helps the shoe shed some weight as well. This shoe is the 2E width fitting which caters for the runner with a slightly broader foot.
