Product Information

Full details

The ASICS GT-2160 Mesh Trainer is designed for adult females seeking a versatile shoe for everyday running and training. Its key benefit is offering reliable support and cushioning with a breathable upper. A potential caveat is its specific grey and brown colorway, which may not suit all aesthetic preferences. This trainer features a combination of breathable mesh and suede overlays, a cushioned midsole for shock absorption, and a durable rubber outsole for multi-surface traction. It also includes traditional lacing, a padded tongue, and a reinforced heel counter for a secure fit.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

The ASICS GT-2160 is designed for everyday running and training. While they offer good cushioning, marathon runners might benefit from shoes with more advanced, specialized cushioning technologies for ultra-distance events.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. This can damage the materials, particularly the suede overlays and the structural integrity of the shoe. Hand clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is primarily constructed from breathable mesh, with suede overlays providing structure and support.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Ensure your foot is comfortably secured by the laces without being too tight. There should be adequate space in the toe box, and the heel should feel locked in without slipping. Trying them on at the end of the day, when feet are slightly swollen, can help achieve a better fit.

What kind of surfaces is the outsole best suited for?

The durable rubber outsole is designed for multi-surface traction, making it suitable for roads, pavements, gym floors, and light trails.

How often should I replace my trainers?

For running, it's generally recommended to replace trainers every 300-500 miles (or 500-800 kilometers) or when you notice significant wear on the outsole or loss of cushioning in the midsole.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight

Loosen the laces, especially around the midfoot, and re-tie them more loosely. Ensure you have the correct UK size. If still too tight, consider insoles with a lower profile.

Reduced cushioning over time

The midsole cushioning naturally compresses with use. For prolonged support, consider replacing the original insoles with new ones designed for cushioning.

Suede material looks dull or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner following product instructions.

Poor traction on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole provides multi-surface traction, but performance on extremely wet or slippery surfaces may be reduced. Clean the outsole tread to ensure optimal grip.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the quality and appearance of your GT-2160 trainers:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to gently clean the mesh and suede. For stubborn dirt on the mesh, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly. Avoid machine washing.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Wipe down with a damp cloth. Ensure any dirt is removed from the tread pattern of the outsole.
  3. Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  4. Suede Care: For the suede overlays, consider using a suede protector spray to help repel water and stains. Brush suede areas with a suede brush to restore nap.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
