These shoes have rugged tread that keeps your feet from hitting large gravel straight on. The arch support is fantastic for my high arches. I began running in these shoes right out of the box when they were delivered and it felt like I was running on marshmallows! They are so light and comfortable and makes running a little more enjoyable for me. My knees didn't hurt after running in these shoes either, so I would guess that they have really worked at lessening the impact of the road as well.
I highly recommend these shoes!!
Sizing: I normally wear a 8.5 in tennis shoes and an 8 in other shoes and boots. These fit perfectly at an 8.5.

I'm very torn to give these 4 stars but I feel like I have to because they keep giving me blisters on the inner side of my heels. I got these because am in love with the Asics GT-2170 regular running shows and needed trail running shoes for my once a week long run in the trails. The first time I wore them the blisters were the size of my pinky finger. Changing more cushioned socks helped, but I still get the blisters I think the problem is that these are plated with metal plates to give you the needed extra support you need in trail running. Maybe they need to work on hiding them better behind more cushion?They do, however, feel very light, comfortable at first, snug and supporting. They grab the trails like a magnet, your foot feels very steady and stable. I would totally give it 5 stars if it wasn't for the blisters that keep happening...

The stability is great! The seem to run a little narrow. My foot is a little narrow, & I still feel they are narrow.Honest reviews on ASICS Women's GT 2170 Trail Running Shoe
I have worn the Asics GT 2170 for three years and have truly loved them. They fit great and have helped me stay injury free (or close to it). I bought this pair due to their color and the reqular ones (non trail) didn't have any in my size left. I love the colors and after three months of running the shoes don't show any signs of wear on the top. My only problem is that they are trail shoes so they are made stiff to help balance when running on uneven ground (rocks, branches, etc.) which makes it a little tough and tight to use when running on the streets. I have adapted well and will continue to use them for street running but will not buy trail shoes in the future unless I am running trails!pros:
-fit
-comfort
-durability (last an entire marathon training season when using two pairs)
-colors: don't show dirt or wear on the top!
cons:
-trail shoes since I don't run trails but that is my fault
