About the Asics GT 2000 10 'Mako Blue Shocking Orange'

Colour naming at ASICS is systematic in a way that only shows up across a whole catalogue. Mako Blue, Shocking Orange, Lake Drive, Carrier Grey and Hazard Green were used as a shared palette through the 2021 and 2022 running range, so the same combinations turn up on the Nimbus, the GT-1000 and the GT-2000 within months of each other. It keeps a wall of shoes looking related without tying any colorway to a single model.

Mako Blue with Shocking Orange is the highest-contrast pairing the tenth GT-2000 was given, and it sits oddly on what is otherwise an unglamorous mid-tier support trainer built for daily mileage. The shoe carries FlyteFoam cushioning, rearfoot GEL and a medial support system, and asks a hundred and thirty dollars.

It is dated to mid-January 2022, part of a group of colorways released together several months after the model itself first appeared.
