The GT-1000 is the cheapest of the three ASICS stability tiers, sitting below the GT-2000 and the Kayano and receiving the brand's newer technology a generation or two after they do. Its twelfth version's real change was shape rather than substance. The eleventh had drawn steady complaints for a narrow upper, with runners of average width routinely advised to size up; ASICS opened the profile noticeably in response and added an extra-wide build alongside the standard one. The design was also nudged toward comfort rather than maximum rigidity, on the view that this shoe's buyer wants gentle guidance and not a corrective device. Piedmont Grey with light blue is exactly the register the model works in: a hundred-dollar trainer that most of its owners will also wear to walk, commute and stand in.
