Troubleshooting
Feeling instability during runs
Ensure the laces are tensioned correctly across the midfoot and check that your foot is centered within the shoe footbed.
Debris lodged in the outsole
Use a blunt plastic tool or stiff brush to carefully dislodge rocks or gravel from the rubber tread patterns.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Gel-Pulse 17 trainers, keep them away from excessive moisture and extreme heat sources like radiators. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry at room temperature with the insoles removed to ensure thorough drying. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush or damp cloth with mild soap; avoid putting these trainers in a washing machine, as the agitation can compromise the internal cushioning adhesives. Always check that you have the correct UK size, as a proper fit is essential for the ergonomic arch support to function as intended.
