Great priceSeptember 6, 2008 I've never seen this sneaker at this price. There are my favorites: they're light, they're airy, and the wide foot fits me perfectly. I buy these over and over, and this price, this is where I'll buy them from now on.
Sadly, The End Of The RoadSeptember 5, 2008 Sadly, the GT 2120 is nearing the end of the road. ASICS, the manufacturer, announced it was discontinuing the 2120 series in July 2008, replacing them with the "improved" GT 2130 line.
The GT-2120 is simply one of the best running shoes out there in the market. It gave me the perfect balance of cushioning and stability...and it's exceptionally lightweight. I'm packing on significant excess weight for a runner and I honestly can say that I would not have lasted in my weight loss runnng program had it not been for these shoes.
Great for runningAugust 4, 2008 These shoes are very comfortable for running. Since I'm training for a triathlon which includes a 10km run, I find them up for the challenge.
Great shoe!July 13, 2008 This is my second pair of 2120's and I am still impressed with them. I bought this shoe after having terrible shin splints and within a few weeks of wearing them they went away. I have not had any pain in my legs since. The only down side is that I am a normal runner and these have a little too much stability as well as too much arch support. My feet aren't affected by it too much but occassionally I will have a hot spot on the inside of my foot.
Get this shoe while they are still in stock! They have been discontinued and replaced by the 2130 which I hear has more support than the 2120 which is why I stuck with this model.
Mostly goodJuly 12, 2008 These shoes are pretty much as good as everyone here has said they were. One problem, the inside part underneath you foot is a bit uneven in places and it makes you feel like you have something in your shoe that you need to shake out, or that your sock has bunched up under your foot. A lot of people probably wouldn't notice this but it drove me crazy until I replaced the inserts.

Their customer service is also not so good.
Anyway, not the best shoe I've ever had, but overall probably a B+ or A- as far as shoes go.
