FAQs
What type of runner is the ASICS GT-2000 13 best for?
The ASICS GT-2000 13 is ideal for female runners who require support and cushioning, particularly those seeking stability to help manage overpronation or who need extra protection for long distances.
How often should I replace these running shoes?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300-500 miles, or every 6-12 months, depending on your running volume, body weight, and individual wear patterns. Listen to your body for signs of diminished cushioning or support.
Can I use these shoes for walking or casual wear?
Yes, while primarily designed for running, the GT-2000 13's advanced cushioning and support make them very comfortable and suitable for walking and everyday casual wear, offering all-day comfort.
How do I clean my ASICS GT-2000 13 shoes?
Wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can damage materials and adhesives. Always air dry shoes away from direct heat.
What is the difference between PureGEL™ and FF BLAST™ PLUS foam?
PureGEL™ technology provides enhanced softness and shock absorption, strategically placed to reduce impact on your joints. FF BLAST™ PLUS foam offers lightweight, energetic cushioning for a responsive and comfortable underfoot feel throughout your stride.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Most users find ASICS GT-2000 13 shoes run true to size. However, it's always recommended to consult the ASICS size chart and, if possible, try them on to ensure the best fit for your feet.
Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?
Yes, with their advanced cushioning, supportive `3D GUIDANCE SYSTEM™`, and durable construction, the GT-2000 13 is well-suited for marathon training and other long-distance running efforts, providing comfort and stability over many miles.
Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort or pain during runs
Ensure correct shoe size and width. Check your lacing technique to avoid pressure points. Consider if orthotics are needed, or consult a running specialist to assess your gait.
Shoes feel too stiff or restrictive
The shoes may require a short break-in period of a few easy runs to allow the materials to adapt to your foot. Verify that the lacing isn't too tight, especially over the instep.
Lack of expected support or stability
Confirm that you have the correct size. Ensure laces are snug to engage the 3D GUIDANCE SYSTEM™. If you've been running many miles, the support features might be breaking down; consider shoe replacement.
Squeaking sound while running
This can sometimes be caused by moisture or friction between the insole and the shoe's internal base. Try removing the insoles, cleaning them and the shoe's interior, and reinserting them dry. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
Premature wear on the outsole
Monitor your running form for signs of excessive dragging or uneven foot strikes. Rotating your running shoes with another pair, especially for high-mileage runners, can also extend their life.
Upper material showing signs of wear quickly
Ensure the shoes are not too tight, which can cause friction points. Avoid activities that might scuff the upper aggressively. Proper cleaning and storage can also help maintain integrity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Getting started with your ASICS GT-2000 13 is straightforward. Ensure you wear appropriate running socks. When lacing your shoes, begin at the toe and work your way up, ensuring a snug fit without being overly tight. Utilize the extra eyelets if you need more ankle security or a specific lacing technique to alleviate pressure points. A proper lacing technique maximizes the shoe's supportive features.
Compatibility: These shoes are specifically designed for female runners who require moderate to high levels of support and cushioning. They are particularly suitable for individuals who exhibit overpronation (where the foot rolls inward excessively during the gait cycle) or those who simply desire extra stability and impact protection. While versatile, their design is optimized for road running and general training on paved surfaces.
Care: To extend the lifespan and maintain the performance of your GT-2000 13 running shoes, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe away dirt and debris with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive brushes that could damage the materials. For stubborn dirt, a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) can be used.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight, radiators, or tumble dryers, as excessive heat can deform materials and adhesives.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. If your shoes get wet from a run, remove the insoles and stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture before air drying.
- Maintenance: Regularly check for small stones or debris lodged in the outsole grooves, as these can affect traction and damage the sole.
