I tried Saucony Tempus 1 but immediately got blisters under my arch due to the high and dense arch support. Just for OP to know, in case he also has issues there. Had the same problems with Nike Structure 25 and earlier models of the GT2000 (years ago! In an Asics store they told me, that they don't use those kind of arch support anymore und the current Kayano feel fine for me)

I have asics gts with flat feet and I do like them but also I wear custom orthotics so I’m not sure how great the asics do on their own 🤷‍♀️

Additional 10% off if you're a new customer as well! GT-2000s are my go-to as well. Can't seem to justify more expensive shoes when these work so well

I pronate and have had to deal with interior tibial tendinitis - shoe wise, I have used Brooks glycerine gts, Saucony Tempus and ASICS GT-2000s all with good success. I usually supplement with Spenco Total Support high arch insoles. I run everything 5k through marathon (Marathon #3 is in 2 weeks.)

Maybe Gel-Kayano or GT-2000. They’re a little heavier but pretty supportive. I used the GT-2000 when I came back to running not too long ago. As for your topic question. It’s really runner dependent, but ASICS do keep hitting for me. Love the SB2s and the Magic Speed 5. I like Adidas, Saucony, and NB too. I don’t trust Nike. I’ve had Nike shoes just fall apart on me.

As a former employee of a specialty running footwear shop I can say that the training done (at least where I worked) definitely puts a lot of emphasis on what pronation is. The problem is that most just ignore the fact that you want to see multiple signals before going for a stability shoe and instead bring out three shoes you mentioned as the standard three whenever there’s the tiniest bit of pronation. If you get pain in certain areas while on your feet (especially when running) then stability potentially could be an option depending on the pain. If you are wanting to follow their recommendations but want something with a bit more of a lively feeling then the Saucony Tempus is a really good option, it’s lively and more of a stable shoe rather than support (guides the foot rather than forces the foot). The Asics GT-2000 is also a decent option and is almost like a hybrid between the Novablast 5 and Kayano 32 (lower stack, responsive foam, mild stability on medial side of the foot).

Also an Asics fan. I alternate between the GT-2000 and the Gel-Keyano. I wear narrows, so I am limited to certain models.

if you’re only mildly overpronating you might be able to get away with a neutral shoe for workouts and races, a lot of people do that as long as their easy mileage is still in something supportive. the novablasts are pretty popular for that faster day role, but they are still quite soft and bouncy so the feel is different from something firmer. if you’re looking for moderate support with a bit more snap, the gt 2000 you mentioned could actually be a good middle ground, i’d just try it on a couple tempo efforts first because how a shoe feels once you’re a bit fatigued matters a lot more than how it feels in the first few miles.
