FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for marathon running?

The ASICS GT-2000 13 Wide offers good cushioning and support for distance running. For marathons, consider your individual needs for cushioning and support over very long distances.

How do I know if I need a 'Wide' fit?

If standard-width shoes feel constrictive, cause pressure on the sides of your feet, or result in numbness, a wide fit like the GT-2000 13 Wide may be more comfortable.

Can these trainers be used for gym workouts?

Yes, they are suitable for general gym workouts due to their supportive and stable design. However, for specialized activities like weightlifting or cross-training with significant lateral movements, dedicated gym shoes might be more appropriate.

What is the primary benefit of the GT-2000 series?

The GT-2000 series is known for providing excellent stability and support, particularly for runners who overpronate, helping to guide the foot into a more neutral motion.

How should I clean the black trainers?

Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing.

What is the expected lifespan of these trainers?

The lifespan of running shoes varies based on usage, mileage, and terrain, but typically ranges from 300 to 500 miles (480 to 800 km) or about 6-12 months for regular runners.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight despite being the correct size.

Loosen the laces, especially around the midfoot, and re-lace them evenly. Ensure the tongue is positioned correctly. If discomfort persists, consider if the 'Wide' fit is sufficient for your foot shape.

Reduced cushioning after initial use.

Running shoe cushioning can feel different after break-in. If you suspect excessive wear, check the sole for signs of damage or breakdown. Ensure you are not exceeding the recommended lifespan for trainers (typically 300-500 miles).

Slipping occurs during runs.

Ensure the lacing system is tightened properly, focusing on a secure heel lock. Check if the outsole tread is worn down, which may require replacement of the shoes.

Cons

  • May not provide sufficient cushioning for ultra-long distances for some runners.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear trainers. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. The lacing system can be adjusted to your preference for a secure fit.

Compatibility: The ASICS GT-2000 13 Wide is designed primarily for running and general athletic training. While suitable for walking, they are not specialized for sports requiring lateral agility like basketball or tennis.

Care: To maintain the trainers:

  1. Remove excess dirt with a soft brush or dry cloth.
  2. For stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water.
  3. Allow trainers to air dry naturally; avoid direct heat sources like radiators or dryers.
  4. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
