GT-2150™
The GT-2000 series is without question the Performance Running category’s number one selling shoe, and has been for nearly a decade. Offering great value at a reasonable price certainly has factored in to the shoe’s popularity, but what really sells the shoe is the consistent comfort and fitthat each successive model delivers. Accordingly, the 2010 version of this iconic shoe will reprise all of the features that fans of the shoe expect with some small tweaks to improve stability and fit.
What's New?
‘Consistency’ is the key word behind the concept for the GT-2150™.
The tooling features a reprised version of the rear-foot GEL® Cushioning System, a two-piece system designed to provide shock attenuation at heel strike and create a more stable transition from heel strike to mid-stance. Gender Specific Space Trusstic (the women’s tooling allows greater midsole deformation than men’s) has a slight modification. The new version extends a bit higher up the medial sidewall of the shoe and is just a bit longer. This adjustment will give the shoe improved midfoot stability.
The forefoot outsole also gets a new design, with a more flexible structure laterally to encourage lateral release, while the medial forefoot outsole pods are larger to provide a more stable environment during transition to toe-off.
The upper features a geometry change to the heel collar. The length of the heel collar remains consistent with the set-up on the GT-2140™, but the shape has been slightly modified. The new version will be a bit more ‘scooped out’, which translates to a slightly lower collar height. (approx. 2mm) The new geometry will help ensure that collar heights do not irritate the ankle.
The upper of the GT-2150™ will also reprise the changes that helped make the GT-2140™ a record-breaking shoe. This includes the Comfordry™ sockliner made from one-density Ortholite memory foam, seamless, two-layer PHF® memory foam in the heel collar, and a multi-piece eye-stay for improved upper comfort.
Noteworthy is the fact that the GT-2150™ will weigh about ½ ounce less than the GT-2140™, weighing in at 11.7 oz in a men’s size 9. The drop in weight comes as a result of a focus on lighter weight materials from top to bottom. The real benefit comes from the overall performance gain from the newer, lighter version. It all adds up to another great model for the GT-2000 series.
Road Test
The GT 2150™ will be quite similar to the current model in terms of platform feel and upper comfort. The overall ride will improve with the drop in weight however, giving the shoe a performance-oriented feel beyond what the current model delivers. The fit in the heel will also benefit from the lower heel collar heights.
