FAQs
What is the primary design inspiration for the GT-2160?
The GT-2160 is inspired by the technical design language of the ASICS GT-2000 series from the early 2010s, retaining its iconic aesthetic and wavy forefoot sculpting.
What type of activities are these trainers best suited for?
These trainers are ideal for casual wear, walking, and light athletic activities. They offer advanced cushioning but are not designed for high-impact sports or professional athletic training.
How do I clean my ASICS GT-2160 trainers?
Clean the upper with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid machine washing. For the sole, use a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Always air dry away from direct heat.
Do these trainers have good arch support?
The GT-2160 features a segmented midsole structure and GEL™ technology for cushioning. While providing support, individual arch support needs can vary; consult a professional if you have specific requirements.
Are the materials durable?
Yes, the trainers combine a breathable mesh upper with durable leather overlays and a robust rubber outsole, designed for longevity in casual and light training use.
What does 'GEL™ Technology Cushioning' mean?
GEL™ technology is an ASICS cushioning system that uses silicone-based inserts to absorb shock effectively, providing a comfortable and stable ride.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Try wearing thinner socks. If the issue persists, consider if the heritage fit is suitable for your foot shape. Product variations may exist.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
The GEL™ technology and midsole are designed for durability, but cushioning can naturally diminish with extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes if performance significantly degrades.
Squeaking sound
This can sometimes occur due to friction between components. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or ensuring all parts are dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These are ready-to-wear athletic shoes. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. The fit is designed to be snug but comfortable.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to clean the mesh and leather surfaces. Avoid harsh detergents or soaking the shoes.
- Midsole and Outsole: Wipe with a damp cloth. For tougher dirt, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a clean damp cloth.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources or sunlight. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
- Insoles: If removable, clean insoles separately following similar damp cloth methods and air dry completely.
