Is the Gel-DS Trainer 14 good for overpronation?

Yes. It is a stability shoe with a midfoot support bridge and a firm heel, aimed at mild to moderate overpronators. Severe overpronators may want a stronger motion-control shoe.

How does it compare with the Gel-Kayano?

The DS Trainer is lighter and firmer, built for speed and tempo runs. The Kayano is heavier and plusher, with more cushioning for daily and long-distance training.

Does it fit true to size?

Most owners say yes, in medium width. Runners between sizes or with wide feet should consider going up half a size.

Is $99.95 a good price?

Yes. At $99.95 at ASICS as of November 8, 2026, it is near the low end of its recent range, well below its usual $130–$160 launch pricing.

Is it good for long runs?

It can handle them, but the firm, thin midsole suits tempo and daily runs better. Runners wanting plush cushioning for long distances should look at the Gel-Nimbus or Gel-Kayano.

One pair of shoes with laces. No extra insoles or accessories are included.
