FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
While the leather upper provides some resistance to light moisture, they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged.
Can I use these for running?
These trainers are designed for light activities and everyday wear rather than intensive long-distance running.
How do I determine my size?
The ASICS Gel-170 series follows standard UK sizing; choose the size you would typically wear in athletic footwear.
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The leather construction allows for a small degree of natural stretch, but users with wider feet may prefer to try them on to ensure a comfortable fit.
How should I clean the soles?
Use a soft-bristled brush and mild soap to remove debris from the rubber outsoles.
Troubleshooting
Leather appearing scuffed or dull
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner or polish designed for black leather to restore shine and cover minor marks.
Shoes feel tight after prolonged wear
Your feet may expand slightly during the day; loosen the laces slightly to accommodate the natural swelling.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS Gel-170 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Fit Check: Ensure the shoe is properly laced to secure the midfoot while allowing the toes room to move.
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the leather in water to prevent damage.
- Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from cracking.
- Conditioning: Use a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent scuffing.
