ASICS is proud to announce that Runner’s World Magazine, the worldwide authority on running information, has awarded the ASICS GT-2160 the 2011 International “Editor’s Choice” award.
Runner’s World Magazine awards one shoe style each year the prestigious International “Editor’s Choice” award. The publication pointed to the GT-2160’s “rock-steady stability features, foot-hugging fit and plush cushioning” as the primary reasons for winning the award.
The shoe was selected by a panel of International Runner’s World editors from the 15 countries in which the magazine is published (Australia/New Zealand, Brazil, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico, The Netherlands/Belgium, Philippines, Poland, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom and the United States).
“ASICS is proud to receive this award from one of the most respected sources of information in the running market,” says Alistair Cameron, President and CEO of ASICS Europe B.V. “This is the second time that the GT-2100 series has won the award and is the best selling performance running shoe in the world for a reason. This award cements ASICS’ position as the runner’s choice.”
In addition, ASICS also received a “Best Buy” award for the GEL-1170, which will be featured in the Winter Shoe Guide.
(December 2011 issue, US-edition).
According to Runner’s World, “this standout trainer delivers a terrific combination of value and comfort.” The Runner’s World Shoe lab test and wear testers said “it’s a well-balanced shoe - sufficiently soft for heel and mid-foot strikers but not mushy - and a great choice for long training runs and marathons.”
