FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The ASICS GT-2160 trainers are designed for lifestyle and casual running. For marathons or high-impact athletic training, we recommend specialized running shoes that offer advanced support and performance features.

What materials are used in the ASICS GT-2160 trainers?

The trainers feature a textile and synthetic upper with a synthetic sole. The midsole incorporates GEL technology for cushioning.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the size chart provided by ASICS or the retailer. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the UK sizing guide. These trainers are available in various adult UK sizes.

Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method to preserve the materials and shape.

What is the main design inspiration for the GT-2160 series?

The GT-2160 series takes inspiration from retro running silhouettes, particularly from the early 2000s, blending nostalgic aesthetics with modern comfort technology.

Is the 'White/Grey' colorway unisex?

While this specific listing is for a women's size, the ASICS GT-2160 series and the White/Grey colorway are often available in both men's and women's sizing, making them suitable for all genders.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Wear thin socks initially and break them in gradually. If still uncomfortable, consider exchanging for a half-size larger.

Reduced cushioning effect

The GEL cushioning is designed for long-term use. If you notice a significant decrease in comfort, check for any visible damage to the midsole. Consistent wear will naturally break in the shoe, but the core cushioning should remain effective for a considerable period.

Slipping on wet surfaces

While the rubber sole provides good traction, it may have reduced grip on extremely wet or slick surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Care: To maintain the condition of your ASICS GT-2160 trainers:
