FAQs

What type of activities are the ASICS GT-2160 trainers best suited for?

They are ideal for general training, gym workouts, walking, and casual everyday wear. They offer good cushioning and stability for these purposes.

How do I know if I've chosen the correct size?

Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. Your heel should feel secure without slipping.

Can I wear these for long-distance running?

While they offer cushioning, they are primarily designed for shorter runs, training, and everyday use. For dedicated long-distance running, ASICS offers specialized running shoe models.

How often should I clean my GT-2160 trainers?

Clean them as needed, especially after workouts or if they become visibly dirty. Regular spot cleaning with a damp cloth is recommended to maintain their appearance and material integrity.

What is the purpose of the TRUSSTIC SYSTEM™?

The TRUSSTIC SYSTEM™ is a midfoot support element that enhances stability and torsional rigidity, helping to prevent the foot from twisting excessively during movement.

Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?

The standard fit is designed for most adult feet. If you have particularly wide feet, it's advisable to check if a wide (2E or 4E) version is available or try them on for comfort.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels incorrect

Consult the ASICS sizing chart and verify your UK foot measurement. If still unsure, consider trying them on in-store or seeking a size exchange if purchased online.

Reduced cushioning over time

GEL cushioning may gradually lessen its effectiveness with extensive use. For best performance, consider replacing trainers after significant wear, typically between 300-500 miles of running or when signs of wear appear.

Traction is poor on wet surfaces

Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. While designed for good traction, performance on extremely wet surfaces may be limited. For such conditions, specialized footwear might be necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent cushioning for comfort during prolonged wear.
  • Provides good stability and support for various training movements.
  • Durable construction ensures longevity.
  • Classic, versatile design that pairs well with athletic and casual outfits.
  • Good traction from the rubber outsole.

Cons

  • May not be ideal for high-impact or specialized sports requiring advanced features.
  • Sizing can be specific; accurate measurement is recommended.
  • Limited color options compared to other trainer lines.
  • The retro design might not appeal to everyone seeking a modern aesthetic.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size before use.

Compatibility: The ASICS GT-2160 trainers are designed for general athletic use and casual wear. They are compatible with standard athletic socks. Their versatility means they pair well with activewear, athleisure, and casual clothing.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: For routine cleaning, use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution with a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water.
  • Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
