ASICS Men's Gt-2170 Trail Running Shoe,Grey/Black/Blue,11.5 M US Review

When I ran my first 14 miles with 4,000' of elevation gain, I found a few key points I love and a few points I do not like.
Over-all this shoe is very good and has a slipper like comfort. It has a little more thickness and softer feel around the ankle and tongue. The fit is however different. There is a little more volume in the measure of width from the mid point to the top. Maybe better for a heavier runner? The last is different and is obvious they did not go off any of the previous models. I've owned the trail 20's, 40's, and 50's as well as tried on the 60's which are very similar to the 50's. There is a substantial more amount of gel in the heel and the mid-foot, however this is good and bad. The good is there is more comfort with the heel strike and a better flow from heel to toe.
So now the not so good.
The gel pad from heel to mid-foot is all encompassed. What this means is while running downhill hitting hard on the heels, it send a fluid shock wave forward through the pad and you feel the wave as your foot is moving from heel to the mid-foot part of the strike. It is annoying to say the least.
The 2nd thing is the wider last. As it is wider in the front half it also does not hold your mid-foot in place as well as the older models. I just tightened up the laces and it helped, but you still have that tightened laces feel. I do however love the amount of toe box room as it is more like the asics were 3 or 4 years ago before for the gt trail shoes and 5 or 6 years ago for the rest of the asics running shoes.
So this would be perfect for someone that usually wants a little more room than what asics have. This is also not a shoe for hard down hill running. The reason is due to the fluid shock wave it gives while running don hill. I imagine a hard striker on a flat road may feel this all the time. At least It's traction is as good as the 60's. The 50's and below were not as good with the traction.
Other than what I don't like about this shoe, I love the rest more than any other model. If it fits your needs it will be a 5 star perfect shoe for you, but not for me.
