Been running in this line of shoes for over 10 years. Have stayed relatively injury free and found them at a reasonable price so continue on.

Great shoe but I wish I could have found it in B widths. Right amount of cushion and stability. New Gt2000 does not have enough cushion.

I bought this shoe because I've been wearing Asics for a long time. As a pronator, I like the durability of the duomax system. It doesn't breakdown and allows for comfort over numerous miles. The shoe could be more appealing to the eye, if you care about that type of thing.
