Drawing from the same DNA that built the iconic high-performance shoes, the ASICS GT II OG gets a modern upgrade while retaining the beloved details of the original. It celebrates the 35th anniversary of its 1986 release date and is remixed with modern details to keep up with the times. The silhouette stays true to the 1980s running shoe but gets a hit of synthetic suede paneling on the upper. These kicks have inherited the original tooling and external heel counter to give you a heritage vibe. The GEL technology cushioning under the heel gives you a superior ride and high energy return every move. ASICS GT II OG features: Mesh underlays offer enhanced breathability and comfort. This model was the first ASICS shoe outside of Japan to be produced internationally with GEL technology. Padded heel collar wraps your ankle with plush comfort. The tongue, sock liner, and outsole feature vintage details, like the retro ASICS SportStyle create an authentic vibe. The foam midsole creates a smooth ride. The rubber outsole delivers superior traction.

I haven't actually worn them out yet, but the look and feel are great! I bought them for work and am actually looking forward to wearing them! They fit true to size and seem to be very lite and comfortable!

My first pair of GT-IIs and my second retro gel model (have previously been a big fan of the Gel Lyte III). EXTREMELY pleased with the comfort and quality of the build and materials - stitching was on point, no loose thread or glue stains, and absolutely buttery suede. Went a half size up from what I wear in most other brands and the fit is spot on. Overall a homerun!

My favourite treadmill shoe. I love these shoes for treadmill waking up steep inclines The shoe provides a good balance of support and flexibility when tacking a 10-15 degree gradient during my training.
The most comfortable trainer that i've had the pleasure of putting my feet into. No kidding, I am thinking of buying another pair. I suffer from arthritis and plantar fasciitis and these are highly recommended for those with feet and leg problems.
I have a closet full of vintage runners. Nike, Saucony, New Balance, Karhu, etc. this was my first pair of Asics and I’m absolutely blown away. From the fit, to the construction, everything is perfect! For sure my new got too.
This shoe is actually very nice. They really hit the mark with the look bringing this original 80's colorway back with the Monaco Blue. However, they missed the mark with the "synthetic suede". It just feels like felt and sort of looks like it too. Absolutely wish they went with a normal suede. If they did a redo with actual suede, I'd repurchase it in a heartbeat.Also a thing to note is that it is more of an off white color compared to the regular white mesh and lacing. Not that its a bad thing, I think it creates that vintage look.Would still recommend the shoes if you don't mind the felt "suede" look and feel.
The shoes are very nice, the fit is a bit small but lucky I red the other reviews and ordered half a size bigger. You could also order one size bigger but I'm ok with them. The look is perfect, I love the colours. The blue stripes are perfectly surrounded by the red.
I love these trainers. They are great for summer. Light and breathable, but with a good level of padding underneath. When you want the comfort of a running shoe but in a stylish casual shoe.
I am a regular purchaser of ASICS shoes due to their comfort, however this particular shoe was very uncomfortable and actually hurt my right foot. They are so uncomfortable that I no longer wear the shoes- I’d think twice before buying this asics model of shoe. Very disappointed with this buy.
