Waterproofing a stability shoe is a winter proposition. The GORE-TEX version of the GT-1000 12 exists for runners who keep training through slush and wet pavement and will trade breathability and about twenty dollars for a membrane that keeps the inside dry. The base shoe is the brand's entry-level support trainer, positioned below the GT-2000 and typically receiving newer technology a generation after the flagships do. The twelfth version's real change was width: ASICS opened up the profile after the eleventh drew repeated complaints for running narrow, and aimed at comfort rather than maximum rigidity, on the view that this buyer wants mild guidance rather than correction. Black with illuminate green is a winter colour in every sense: a dark upper that shrugs off road spray, and a fluorescent accent for the hours when it is dark at both ends of the run.
