Hey guys, i'm new to running but lately i kept getting same injuries around the shin and heel and finally decided to buy a pair of decent running shoes.

Was using BATA (Buy And Throw Away!), then all the pain came up after jogging for days continuously. So now i just bought a pair of Asics GT 2120 without even considering the other brands since i'm still new to running itself. i can only jog a maximum of 2.2km in one go then need to rest.

Also when i was testing other shoes like adidas, nike, i didnt quite like it due to the fitting. At that time i didnt know what Asics is, but i just tried on since the pricing was more expensive than nike and adidas range, i thought there maybe reasons for it.

The first try it fits perfectly except for the arch support that i find irritating. then i consult the shop assistant that my arch hurts, and he told me its normal since it acts as a support. so i tried walking around and realized i dont feel much pressure on my shins, ball of foot and heel.

Feel free to comment, advice will be much appreciated. thanks!

ya, i got them to check for me. they said mine is flat to normal. more on flat.

anyhow since i already bought the shoes i didnt regret a bit cause i feel so comfortable the whole day walking around college without feeling discomfort.

haha, cool. I'm already getting used to mine and only reaching 10km.

yup, got mine from Isetan just few days ago. So happened i was in kl and the 3 day mega sales was on. Got my GT2120 for rm279. LOL
i saw Asics rack that range from 499-799 i avoid that place straight away . hahaha
