product details
Skechers GObionic running shoes provide ultra-minimal performance with a zero drop heel that keeps your foot in a more natural position for a more barefoot-style run. The tri-color design will stand out among the crowd. A padded collar and smooth exoFit construction allow runners to wear these shoes without socks for a truly barefoot run.
Upper: An exoFit construction reacts and moves like a second skin, surrounding the foot with supportive and breathable mesh fabric. Lace-up front provides customizable tightness. Smooth fabric creates enhanced comfort for barefoot wear.
Midsole: 18 Bio-Responsive Resalyte™ cushioning zones added to key flex points of the foot add protection without compromising responsiveness. Extreme flexibility with a roomy toe box and vamp area along with an articulated sole allows the toes and foot greater freedom of motion. A zero drop design eliminates traditional heel lift so that the entire foot remains low to the ground in a more natural position. Agion® scent protection combats odor causing elements. Water-resistant midsole layer. Removable insole.
Outsole: M-Strike high abrasion rubber traction pads enhance surface grip. Scotchgard 3M Protector provides a durable resistance to oil and water and makes cleaning easier.
October 2012
"Running shoe newcomer Skechers won the Best Debut award for its GOrun in our Spring/Summer 2012 Shoe Guide. This time it’s taken the Editor’s Choice gong with this zero-drop, stripped-down version of that model. The shape of the outsole is gently curved to encourage a midfoot strike, while the outsole itself is split into 16 sections, which move individually to better support the bones in your foot. Testers loved everything about it, especially the flexibility, responsiveness, low weight and perceived springy feel. However, poor weatherproofing means they’re not suitable for running in heavy rain."

Comments about Skechers GObionic Men Orange/Lime:
Great ground feel and still gives protection. A Nike Free alternative but better. Zero drop - feels like you just have a piece of rubber on you foot. Shoe moves with natural foot plant extremely well.

Comments about Skechers GObionic Men Orange/Lime:
Almost the perfect zero drop shoe. And ive run in everything the shoe market has to offer. You guy's nailed it as far as shoe last and flexibility go for a forefoot runner. My only complaint is the firmness of the sole. I believe the amount of cushion is spot on but the firmness of the cushion is lacking. It's too mushy for ideal proprioception and response. I added a make shift "very firm" midsole to the shoe and it improved the response dramatically. Immediately much more spring in the shoe. I believe the minimalist shoe market is already beginning its proper shift from minimalism to simply zero dropism. Firm up that sole but keep its flexibility tread design and you've created the perfect forefoot running shoe.

Comments about Skechers GObionic Men Orange/Lime:
I wear mine every day to run 3-5 miles on pavement and trails and with my orthotics,
my feet rarely feel the effects of the low arches. What I really appreciate about Sketchers in general is their affordable price and how well they are made.
