What the critics say
The reviews comparedReviewers found both softer than earlier GT-2000s, with a stiff heel counter. Doctors of Running's Matt Klein judged the ASICS GT-2000 14 supportive along its full length but heavier than before, with a clunky heel transition. He and Bach Pham found the ASICS GT-2000 15 light and bouncy, though both, like RunRepeat's Carlos Sánchez, flagged a snug, low-volume toe box.

What's new in each
ASICS GT-2000 14: Switches to softer FF Blast Max foam with firmer, full-length 3D Guidance support on the inside of the foot, and a slightly roomier upper. A little heavier than the GT-2000 13.
ASICS GT-2000 15: A livelier, softer FF Blast Max formula, about 2 mm more stack, a more pronounced rocker, a new woven upper and a redesigned outsole make it lighter and bouncier than the GT-2000 14.
About each shoe
About the GT-2000 15
Replacing the GT-2000 14, the GT-2000 15 is ASICS' mid-range stability trainer, which the brand describes as a versatile, lightweight daily shoe for a range of distances. ASICS positions it as the lighter, more nimble alternative to the Gel-Kayano 33, and it sits above the cheaper GT-1000 15.
Guidance comes from the 3D Guidance System, which uses the midsole's geometry to guide the foot from landing through toe-off, in place of the Kayano's FluidSupport. Updated FF Blast Max foam is paired with PureGEL, and a forefoot trampoline pod borrowed from the Blast series is a feature the Kayano lacks. A new engineered woven upper completes the update, which ASICS says is lighter and taller than before. It weighs 252 g in a men's US 9 (UK 8.5), with an 8 mm drop, and comes in standard, wide and extra-wide fittings plus a GORE-TEX version.
