Asics GT-2000 5 £115

The latest iteration of Asics’ mid-range stability shoe has barely changed from the previous version. It still has the same middle-of-the-road levels of cushioning, medial support, flexibility and fit. The unflashy solidity was reflected in our testers’ comments, with the most positive comment being, ‘I liked it because it didn’t get in the way.’ If you’re a mild-to-moderate overpronator you’ll enjoy the decent stability, and the soft inner lining has universal appeal, but other than that there’s not a lot to see here.
