FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathons?
The Gel-Pulse is excellent for daily training and road running, though individual comfort preferences vary for marathon-length distances.
How often should I replace my trainers?
It is generally recommended to replace trainers every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running frequency and surface conditions.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash your shoes; hand cleaning with a soft brush and mild soap is safer for the materials.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The Gel-Pulse trainers are designed for breathability and are not classified as waterproof.
Do these shoes provide arch support?
The ergonomic design provides standard neutral support, which is suitable for most runners.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort after long runs
Ensure your laces are not tied too tight and verify that your socks are moisture-wicking to prevent friction.
Sole losing traction
Check for debris embedded in the tread and wipe the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to restore grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS trainers last as long as possible, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: Ensure your size (e.g., 6.5 UK) is correct for your foot width and length.
- Cleaning: Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth to remove excess dirt. Avoid using strong chemical cleaners on the mesh upper.
- Drying: Air-dry your shoes at room temperature after heavy use. Do not place them near direct heat sources or in the tumble dryer, as high heat can damage the GEL components and adhesives.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to maintain the structural integrity of the cushioning.
