I am in need of new running shoes.
I've been using Asics GT2000 shoes for a long time. However the last set I purchased (2 pairs) have not held up. I only have about ~500 miles on the pair I have pictures of below, probably less. I usually get about ~750 to ~1000+ miles out of a pair. As you can see they still look new. I run about ~35 to up to ~90 MPW.
I even have a set of first gen GT2000 that have well over 1,500+ miles and are ready for the trash and they are still comfortable.
Also, outlined in red, is where they rub the back of my feet. You can see how it's just worn away. It's almost like the gel or whatever padding on the bottom has "deflated" over time. Never had this happen before, even in my most used shoes.
I am thinking of going to my local running store and asking them and showing them the pictures and see what they have to say.
I don't want to buy something and have it destroy my feet.
Any suggestions!?
