Expert Review Sources

  • OutdoorGearLab : 81.6 / 100 — « In ASICS's daily trainer lineup, the GT 1000 14 scores strongly in our side-by-side field comparisons, blending reliable traction with protective cushioning (272 g). Its upper lockdown and outsole durability on road make it a standout contender at $180. »
  • RunRepeat : 81.6 / 100 — « We found the ASICS GT 1000 14 to be a great all-around choice for runners wanting dependable support at a fair price. It delivers a steady ride that feels great for everyday use. We think the new materials give it a slightly more premium touch. In our lab tests, the thick tongue and well-built heel added to its cozy feel. That said, we found that the engineered mesh runs warm, so it might not be the best choice for those running in hot weather. »
