FAQs
What type of running are these trainers best for?
The ASICS Gel-Pulse 17 Trainers are best suited for road running, treadmill use, and general fitness training due to their cushioning and traction features.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
Measure your foot length and compare it to the ASICS sizing chart, paying close attention to the UK sizing. Trying them on if possible is recommended, or ensure your purchase allows for easy returns if the fit is incorrect.
Can these trainers be used for trail running?
These trainers are primarily designed for road and gym surfaces. They are not specialized for the rugged terrain of trail running, which typically requires deeper lugs and more robust protection.
How often should I replace my running trainers?
Generally, running trainers should be replaced every 300-500 miles (or 500-800 kilometers) of use, or when you notice significant wear on the outsole or a reduction in cushioning support.
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The product information does not specify width options. It is recommended to check for 'wide' fit versions or consult customer reviews regarding fit for wider feet.
What is the main benefit of the GEL cushioning?
The GEL cushioning provides excellent shock absorption, reducing the impact on your joints during each stride, which helps in comfort and potentially injury prevention.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If still tight, try loosening the laces and re-lacing them to allow for more volume. For persistent tightness, consider alternative lacing techniques or a different model if sizing is not the issue.
Traction seems poor
Clean the outsole thoroughly to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that might be hindering grip. Ensure the running surface is suitable for the shoe's design.
Feet feel hot during runs
While the mesh is breathable, very high temperatures or intense activity can still cause heat. Ensure socks are moisture-wicking. If the issue persists, consider products with enhanced ventilation.
