FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The standard fit is designed for average width feet. For wider feet, it is recommended to try on the shoes or look for specific wide-fit models if available.

How long do the ASICS Gel-Pulse 17 typically last?

With proper care and depending on mileage, the shoes can last between 300 to 500 miles. Regular inspection for wear on the outsole and cushioning is advised.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers as it can damage the GEL cushioning and upper materials. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.

What is the primary benefit of the GEL cushioning?

The GEL cushioning is designed to absorb shock effectively, providing a softer landing and reducing stress on your feet, ankles, and knees during impact.

Are these shoes good for marathon training?

Yes, they are well-suited for marathon training on road surfaces due to their cushioning and durability. However, listen to your body and consider shoe replacement if cushioning significantly degrades.

What maintenance is required for the high-resistance rubber outsole?

Periodically clean the outsole with a brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and debris that could affect traction. Avoid using oils or solvents which can degrade the rubber.

Troubleshooting

Reduced cushioning after many uses

While GEL cushioning is durable, its effectiveness can diminish over extended mileage. Consider replacing the shoes after 300-500 miles, depending on usage and surface.

Traction slipping on wet surfaces

Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. For persistent issues on very wet or slick surfaces, exercise caution or consider shoes with a more aggressive tread pattern.

Discomfort or rubbing

Check if the shoe size and width are correct. Ensure socks are appropriate for running. Break in the shoes gradually with shorter runs before attempting longer distances.
