Who should buy the new asics GT 1000 11

- budget shoe that's light and comfortable for long hours
Who should NOT buy it
Asics Australia Home Jersey Mens ASICS GT 2000 10 instead. Want room for wide feet? Our tests tell us that the ASICS Kayano 28 with its roomier toe box will serve you better than the new asics GT 1000 11.
ASICS GT 1000 11 vs. 10
We found this iteration of the new asics GT 1000 to be a notable update. And this is because of the following:
- a softer heel and a more flexible forefoot to amplify comfort
- less invasive underfoot support, making it suitable for neutral runners as well
- Concepts new asics Gt3 3 Lie
- sheds off some weight, going from 281 grammes/9.9 ounces to 270 grammes/9.5 ounces in US men's size 9
q new asics cumulus talla 47.5 | An inclusive support
The GT 1000 11 is a new asics Gel-Kyrios 1201A026-400 that provides support for flat feet and overpronation without being too much. It can also work as a supportive running shoe for neutral runners without being too much.
Checking the GT 1000 11's torsional and longitudinal flexibility, we gave the shoe a 3 out of 5 on both. It is definitely less stiff and more forgiving than the traditional stability shoes like ASICS Gel Kayano 30 which you would not be able to twist like that.
Not rigid like most stability shoes
The new asics GT 1000 line has always consisted of running shoes that required a break-in period. But not anymore! In this version, we experienced a comfortable in-shoe feel from the start.
Neither does the shoe feel hard on the feet after a long run.
The GT 1000 11 is indeed a pretty soft shoe, even compared to neutral trainers. Our durometer shows 12.8 HA which is an impressive 87% softer than average!
What's also interesting is that the foam barely firms up in the cold. It got only 12.3% denser whereas most shoes stiffen up by around 20-30%.
The new asics GT 1000 11 keeps weight down
On average, stability shoes weigh in at 298 grammes/10.5 ounces in US men's 9. Meanwhile, the new asics GT 1000 11 only weighs in at 270 grammes/9.5 ounces.
tenis new asics gel quantum infinitychumbo!
Favours the narrow feet
This support shoe has a pretty slim fit, making it more suitable for those with narrow feet.
We measured the widest part of the toebox at 98.2 mm which is right at the average of road running shoes. The problem is that it gets considerably narrow around the toes.
But the good news is that this new asics shoe is available in wide and even extra-wide options!
Renowned new asics durability
The brand holds its mark even in a budget-friendly shoe like the GT 1000 11. We found the shoe's outsole rubber to be pretty hard-wearing. With a durometer measurement of 85.5 HC, it turns out to be firmer than average!
So, as long as the outsole doesn't start peeling away from the foam, the rubber itself should last many miles.
Won't hurt your pocket
Given that the average price of new asics Gel-Kyrios 1201A026-400s is £140, this new asics shoe is truly impressive for its modest price of £100.
