Full details
These ASICS GT-2160 trainers are designed for adult women seeking a blend of retro style and modern comfort for everyday wear. Their key benefit lies in providing cushioned support and a secure fit with a distinctive aesthetic.

FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
While the GT-2160 offers GEL cushioning, they are primarily designed for casual wear and light activities. For marathon running, specialized running shoes with advanced support and cushioning are recommended.
How do I determine the correct UK size?
Refer to the size chart provided by ASICS or the retailer. Ensure your foot measurements align with the specified UK adult foot size for the best fit.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, cushioning, and structural integrity of the shoe. Hand washing with a soft brush and mild detergent is the preferred method.
What is the main difference between the GT-2160 and other ASICS series?
The GT-2160 series often focuses on bringing back retro designs with modern comfort updates, making it ideal for style-conscious wearers. Other series like GT-2000 might have a stronger focus on stability or cushioning for specific running needs.
How durable is the rubber sole?
The rubber sole is designed for durability and traction for everyday use. Like all footwear, its lifespan will depend on the frequency and type of use.
Is the open-hole mesh waterproof?
No, the open-hole mesh is designed for breathability and is not waterproof. It allows air to circulate but will not keep water out.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have the correct size. If new, they may require a short break-in period. Wearing thinner socks or loosening the laces can provide initial comfort.
Reduced cushioning over time
The GEL technology cushioning may lessen with extensive use. Consider if the shoes have reached the end of their lifespan for optimal comfort. Ensure no debris is impacting the midsole.
Slipping on wet surfaces
The rubber outsole provides grip, but caution is advised on very wet or slippery surfaces. The open-hole mesh also offers less protection in wet conditions.
