Description
The 10th anniversary of the GT-1000™ running shoe represents a major advancement of the model. Designed for a runner with an active lifestyle who is looking for a lightweight everyday sneaker with excellent cushioning.
The upper has been redesigned with a new integrated mesh that fits the natural shape of your foot while providing comfortable midfoot support.
With the addition of an integrated support system, this version improves heel fit and creates a more supportive feel.
Following a more sustainable design approach, this shoe also uses less material to color the insole.
Featuring a layer of GEL™ technology cushioning in the heel, the shoe also incorporates a FLYTEFOAM™ foam midsole that offers a softer feel and greater stride support.
Finally, the DUOMAX™ support system consists of a firmer density foam placed on the medial portion of the midsole to help reduce pronated inward rolling (overpronation) while improving stability.
Pronation is a natural movement of the human body that refers to the way your foot rolls inward to distribute impact when landing on the ground. Understanding your pronation type can help you find a comfortable running shoe. The GT-1000™ 10 model was designed with Surpronation in mind.

Points of impact with the ground
The foot lands on the outer part of the heel, then rolls inward too much (pronation), shifting the weight to the inner part rather than the arch of the foot.
