FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
The ASICS GT-2160 trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear, offering comfort and style. For marathon running, we recommend looking at ASICS' dedicated performance running shoe lines which offer specialized support and cushioning for long-distance races.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by ASICS or the retailer. Generally, UK sizing for women's shoes can be found by measuring your foot length and comparing it to the size guide. The product description lists the specific UK size available.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, we do not recommend machine washing the ASICS GT-2160 trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, especially the mesh and the GEL cushioning technology. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.
What does the GEL technology in the midsole do?
The GEL technology is ASICS' proprietary cushioning system. It's strategically placed in the midsole to absorb shock upon impact, providing a softer landing and reducing stress on your joints.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The ASICS GT-2160 trainers feature an open-hole mesh upper, which prioritizes breathability. They are not waterproof and are best suited for dry conditions. For wet weather, consider shoes made with more water-resistant materials.
What is the main difference between the GT-2160 and GT-2000 series mentioned?
The GT-2160 is highlighted here for its retro aesthetic and lifestyle comfort. The GT-2000 series, often found in sibling products, is typically geared more towards neutral running support and performance.
Troubleshooting
Slightly tight fit
Wear with thin socks initially, and the shoes may loosen slightly with wear. Consider using a shoe stretcher if the tightness persists and is uncomfortable.
Squeaking noise
This can sometimes occur due to friction between parts. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or around the tongue area.
Dirt on mesh upper
Use a soft brush with a mild soap and water solution. Gently scrub the affected area and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Ensure to rinse the brush thoroughly.
