ASICS GT2140 Running Shoes for Men

Allow me to share with you my own experience how Asics running shoes, particularly ASICS GT2140 helped me in managing my life as a student at UMass (University of Massachusetts) in Boston and my work as a Crossing Guard in school zones.

Working and studying is not really hard if only I did not have this problem with my flat feet. Walking around the campus can be difficult enough, while the number of hours I spend walking to and fro as a Crossing Guard could really kill my feet. I even felt the pain up to my hips when days could really be tough with heavy traffic.

I learned from one of the podiatrists at the university as to how flat-footed people like me should see to it that the foot gear I wear should have shock absorption and right cushioning. What this podiatrist suggested was to wear running shoes that were specifically structured for what runners call as overpronators.

Naturally I visited the local running shoe store in the area and they were kind enough to show me some of the brands including Asics running shoes. I immediately liked what I saw in ASICS GT2140. I tried it on for size and I could not believe the difference on how the shoes felt. There was certain springiness to the strides I took. It was as if the cushioning responded to the down strides I took by giving me a bounced-back effect as I made the next step. Those were my initial reactions to the ASICS GT2140 running shoes when I first tried them on.

As expected I bought the shoes and used it for the whole day everyday. Checkout the following experiences I had while wearing these ASICS GT2140 running shoes:

• Wearing Asics running shoes was like consciously wearing something because a lot of my friends commented on how good ASICS GT2140 looks, yet it felt like I was wearing nothing.

• Prior to wearing ASICS GT2140 running shoes, I walked around the dorm barefoot since I felt like my feet needed to breathe. Although barefoot was also difficult for me; being archless made me feel the hardness of the floor. After ASICS GT2140, wearing the shoes all day did not feel as if I had it on for a long time. Hence, I totally lost the entire urge to go barefoot once I took off the shoes because my feet did not feel any of that cramped sweaty feel.

• I was more light footed and agile with my Asics running shoes on while directing traffic to provide an orderly movement of the vehicles. In fact, it was not difficult for me to meet the 10 hours a week of duty that was assigned to me. I thought I was going to lose my job for being absent every so often, but my hips could really hurt and I just wanted to go home and rest after school. After ASICS GT2140, I totally lost all the foot pain that caused me the hip problems.

• I do not know how ASICS GT2140 running shoes do it. It was my first time to wear rubber shoes for purposes of correcting my flatfoot gaits, but the way the Asics running shoes fit is just perfect. I guess the lacing design of the shoe closure made it possible for the shoes to conform and create a custom fit effect.

Obviously, these experiences made me want to share my Asics running shoes review. Whatever the entire product features says it can do, ASICS GT2140 does it well.
