FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The ASICS GT-2160 trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and comfort. While they offer good cushioning for walking and daily activities, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact running or athletic performance.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The fit should be snug around the heel and midfoot without feeling tight.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials and construction. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.

What does the GEL™ technology do?

GEL™ technology is an ASICS cushioning system designed to absorb shock upon impact and provide a comfortable, cushioned feel underfoot.

How should I store my GT-2160 trainers when not in use?

Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keeping them in a shoe box or bag can help maintain their shape and protect them from dust.

What is the main style influence for the GT-2160?

The GT-2160 draws its design inspiration from the technical aesthetic of the ASICS GT-2000 series from the early 2010s, featuring characteristic wavy forefoot sculpting and a segmented midsole.
