Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure or pinching during long runs
Ensure the laces are not tied too tightly across the bridge of the foot; consider an alternative lacing pattern to relieve pressure points.
Shoes are retaining moisture or odor
Remove the insoles after every workout and allow the shoes to dry in a well-ventilated area; use odor-absorbing inserts if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience with your ASICS GT-2160, always start by checking your specific UK size, as the GT-2160 series features a snug, performance-oriented fit.
Care Instructions:
- Wipe away excess mud or dirt using a soft brush or cloth after each run.
- Allow the shoes to air dry naturally in a cool area away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can deform the foam.
- Remove the sockliner to let the interior air out between uses.
- Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as high temperatures damage the specialized foam compounds.
