I’ve now worn these shoes almost every day for several months and can say officially that I love them. I am not a runner, but I walk at least 4-7 miles a day - I live in the city and commute on foot pretty much everywhere - and these shoes are incredibly comfortable and WAY better looking than the pictures would indicate, too! I have used them for walking long distances and running on exercise equipment in the gym, and the only problem I’ve had is that they make my feet hurt when I’m running on a treadmill. But not when I’m running “in real life” on the street, and not when I’m walking for hours at a time so I don’t know why that is. Bottom line: they’re really comfortable and they hold up well over distance. I couldn’t be happier.

This shoe is terrific -
I have worn Asics and LOVE the 2130. Definitely buy up 1/2 size and yes, wear a padded running sock for comfort. I also recommend a good orthotic and of course, the liners are removable so you can add your orthotic. Good shoe and Zappos is the BEST!
I'd also recommend:
Have 3 pairs of them right now. It works.

Asics fits my feet -
Not all running shoes are built for the same feet. One needs to know his/her feet well to choose the right running shoes. Asics Gel-2130 is built for moderate over-pronators who require moderate arch support (not for flat footed runners). Gel-2130 fits me perfectly when I run. Your feet will bloat from running therefore always buy a 1/2 size larger. Also recommending double layered running socks to prevent blistering.

Other Saucony shoes are better -
Saucony is my running shoe of choice. I purchased this shoe mostly because of the color, since there are not many black running shoes. However, after using the shoe for about 5 months, I have developed foot/arch, knee, and back pain (mostly knee pain) in a way I have never known before. Luckily, Zappos has been extremely helpful with the return, and now I am going to try the Saucony Xodus. I HIGHLY recommend Saucony, just not this shoe, especially if you plan on running.

Awesome!
I love this shoe! They are light weight, comfortable, and propel my feet forward. I'm running a 1/2 marathon soon and I've been training in these for seven months and they’re still in great shape. Best shoes I've ever owned.

AWESOME RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX! I’ve recently started a workout program and my other sneakers were killing my feet. Last night my right foot was extremely painful, so I went online and bought these just before bed. This afternoon the UPS driver delivered them! I took them out of the box and within two hours, I was at the gym for over an hour of cardio, and I can’t believe how comfortable they are! They offer good support and cushioning! I would recommend for light running or walking!!! I love these shoes and Zappos for SUPERB service!!!

I Love my Asics -
Perfect running shoe for me - I've been wearing Asics for years now and I'm always happy with them. Hard to find size 11 in stores - luckily Zappos has them. Perfect fit outta the box and I'm out enjoying them!

I have yet to run my usual 5-6 miles or so in these sneakers but I can already tell that I'm going to love them. I've always worn Nike sneakers but these are a lot more comfortable. A little narrow in the middle but plenty of room in the toe area. I will definitely be purchasing Asics running sneakers in the future!

Not quite it.
The 2130 was my almost choice for a running shoe. Loved the fact that I ordered it in black. I tried it against my top 4 choices from 8. It almost made it, but the footbed was not quite right for my foot. Great comfort, great arch support, great stability. I would highly recommend trying this shoe before making a decision based on my review.
I'd also recommend:
Try all Asics, they are all just a bit different in fit. For a narrow foot they are the best.

Perfect trainer -
After slight shin pain from a cheaper trainer and just starting a 9 week 1/2 marathon training on the treadmill - ran with these right out the box - no blisters, no shin pain and fit perfect. I ordered 1/2 size bigger, wide width in black - very cool. My first pair Asics and in black, will definitely order again. Zappos has the BEST service - keeps me coming back.

Awesome ASICS -
The 2130 has to be the most comfortable running shoe ever! It molds to the foot and controls the rear foot at heel strike and doesn't allow overpronation at midstance. I love them!

Very good support and comfort -
I really like the narrow width, pronation control, and arch support, but the shoe is a little shorter than the GT2120. This is a great shoe if available in your size.

Amazing, stylish running shoe -
This is my third pair of ASICS GT-2130's and they are consistently comfortable as well as stylish. I have tried the new 2140 model, and they felt very similar but my heart (as well as my feet) will always be true to the 2130. Right out of the box I took them for a 4 mile, hilly run and they felt great. No blisters or discomfort at all.
I cannot say enough about Zappos' amazing customer service. I don't care who else sells what I'm looking for, if Zappos has it, I will buy it from them! I ordered my shoes on Monday (a holiday no less) at 3 p.m. PST, and they arrived at noon the next day. There is absolutely no place else that compares to Zappos!

Ready to go out of the box!
I wore them on the treadmill the day I got them. Never had a blister or a sore spot. I actually intend to buy a second pair! and in black, they're very stylish.

Old Standby -
I have been running in this shoe for 15 plus years, and I always buy the current model every 6 months or so. They're great for pronators.

Running shoes -
I'm a long time user of Asics for running shoes. I kept not finding my size in stores. I was happy to find it online as well as a range of choice in colors. I never new the GT-2130 came in black. Asics still fit my foot just right, thank you for the convenience of online ordering.

I just switched to Asics, this is my first pair. It won't be my last. Great fit, the gel makes them extra comfy, and Zappos, what a pleasure!

Love them!
I have a high arch and am very active. These shoes are very comfortable. They keep my feet from sliding forward. I have been able to jog and walk without pain to my feet. They are so comfortable I love to work out!

2nd time purchase -
I bought the last model of same shoe (2120) and it worked well for me. These feel great too, maybe a little better. I wear a big orthotic and it fits into these just fine. The liner is not glued so it doesn't tear the shoe up to remove. I run about 10 - 15 miles per week and they last. I bought the wide. I say no arch support because I am a foot and ankle specialist (physical therapy) and as I said I remove the liner, which is just a thin bit of nothing. This is a pronation control shoe.

Great narrow running shoe -
I have narrow feet and always turn to Zappos for a good selection of narrows. These fit perfectly. Very comfortable and supportive. True to size.

Great running shoe -
I've recently picked up running to step up my workout. My feet pronate, so I need shoes that can properly support me. These are great for running; I feel that I get good cushion and support. I got them in black, which is nice because they don't look like typical running shoes. Very comfortable & practical. Thanks to Zappos, they came super fast & I was running in them 2 days after I ordered them! I wear a 9 & ordered a half size larger since your feet swell while running. it was the perfect size to order for this reason, and they don't feel too big.

Great, good looking -
I am wide across the toes, so I chose these primarily because they come in wide. They fit beautifully and they are not excessively wide in the heel. I got black, and they are not so bright in-your-face as white shoes, making them great for wearing around town as well as for walking/running. Good padding around ankle. No break-in required. If they don't feel right out of the box, they aren't right. I needed a half size larger than I usually wear, but that may be because of the heft of running socks and the need for generous space in the toe for running.

I'm already on my second pair!
I've got terrible knees, not-so-great ankles, and while I over pronate, my arches are pretty high. I really didn't think I'd be able to run without significant joint pain, but thanks to these sneakers, I now run 20 miles a week! I wore out my first pair, and even though I tried on other sneakers, I went right back to this shoe. However, I would recommend getting yourself fitted at a professional running shop, even if you're not actually using the sneakers for running. There is a wide range of different running gaits, and you want to make sure you get the right sneaker to match yours!
