Runner's World Awards: Editor's Choice
Boasting an outstanding fit, the 2130 has been updated with the same improvements to the ankle collar and forefoot that Asics made to the 1130. The company also improved the shoe's cushioning--which was confirmed by RW Shoe Lab tests---by using a new formulation of foam in the midsole and softer rubber in the forefoot outsole. The footbridge is thicker, which provides better support. Recommended for runners with normal arches or for lightweight runners with lower arches.

"A great shoe. It fit comfortably right out of the box." --Chris Evans Gartley, 34, Allentown

"The shoe felt lightweight, but still had effective cushioning and support." --Brian Potocki, 21, East Lansing

"This is a good shoe if you don't need a lot of arch support." Michelle Tegenkamp, East Lansing

I found these shoes to be lightweight and easy to run in. I repeatedly ran 5-10 mile runs in them and I never had any problems. However, after about 150 miles in them, I started to experience more blisters, knee pain and leg pain. I did expect a little more out of such a highly recommended shoe, but they definately did what they needed to do in the beginning. Overall, I was pretty pleased with the shoe..

I really like this shoe. I was having all kinds of foot and lower leg problems, I went to Fleet Feet and they put me in these. They almost feel like they disappear when I put them on. My legs have never felt better when running..

Wraps around your foot beautifully. The improvements since the 2100 series are noticeable and appreciated! Great heel/ankle support with the lightness as well. The price is superfantastic as well!.
