FAQs
What is the primary purpose of the ASICS GT-2000 13 trainers?
The GT-2000 13 trainers are designed primarily for road running and daily training, offering a balance of cushioning and stability.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The product information specifies standard fit for this particular model (1011B861-002-110). ASICS often offers wide (2E) or extra-wide (4E) versions of popular models, indicated by a different product code (e.g., starting with 1011B862 for wide variants). Check sibling products for wide options.
How do I know if I have the right size?
It's recommended to measure your foot and compare it to ASICS' sizing chart, considering that running shoes often benefit from a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.
Can these trainers be worn for cross-training activities?
Yes, their supportive design makes them suitable for various cross-training routines, though they are optimized for running.
What is the difference between this model and other ASICS series?
The GT-2000 series is known for providing moderate stability and cushioning, often suitable for runners who overpronate slightly. Other series like the GEL-Nimbus focus on maximum cushioning, while the GEL-Kayano offers maximum stability.
How long do ASICS GT-2000 13 trainers typically last?
With regular use for running, the cushioning and support typically last between 300 to 500 miles (approximately 500 to 800 kilometers) before needing replacement.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the ASICS GT-2000 13 trainers are not waterproof. They are designed with breathable mesh uppers for ventilation during athletic activities.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Consider trying a wider fit model if available or allowing a break-in period. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly.
Reduced cushioning feel over time
The midsole cushioning may naturally degrade after significant mileage. Refer to running shoe lifespan guides; replacement is recommended after 300-500 miles or when noticeable wear occurs.
Sole shows excessive wear
This can be due to running surface, gait, or mileage. Ensure you are using the shoes for their intended purpose (road running/training) and consider rotating with another pair if logging high mileage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers require no specific setup. They are designed for immediate use out of the box. Compatibility is straightforward, as they are standard footwear. To care for your ASICS GT-2000 13 trainers:
- Cleaning: After use, brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Ensure they are completely dry before storing to prevent odor and material degradation.
- Usage: Primarily intended for running and athletic training. Excessive wear in non-athletic contexts may reduce their lifespan and performance characteristics.
