FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The product information does not specify width options. It's recommended to try them on or check for a wide-fit version if available, though this specific model information doesn't indicate width variations.
How much additional cushioning do these shoes offer compared to previous models?
The GEL-PULSE 17 features an additional 2mm of foam in the midsole for enhanced cushioning.
What is the heel height of the GEL-PULSE 17?
The GEL-PULSE 17 has a flat heel height, typically between 1 to 3 cm.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and structure of the shoe. Hand wash and air dry are the preferred cleaning methods.
What is the primary benefit of the AHARPLUS rubber heel reinforcement?
The AHARPLUS rubber provides significantly higher abrasion resistance, making the heel area of the outsole approximately three times more durable than standard rubber.
Are these shoes good for marathon running?
While the GEL-PULSE 17 offers good cushioning and comfort for running, they are generally best suited for daily training runs and shorter distances. For marathon distances, you might consider models specifically designed for extreme endurance.
How does the solution dyeing process benefit the environment?
The solution dyeing process used for the insole reduces water consumption by approximately 33% and carbon emissions by approximately 45% compared to conventional dyeing methods.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have the correct size. If the shoes are new, they may need a break-in period. Try loosening the laces and re-lacing them to optimize fit.
Discomfort during runs
Check if the lacing is appropriate. Ensure the shoes are suitable for the running surface. Consider if the cushioning level meets your personal needs for the distance being run.
Mesh upper feels warm
The mesh is designed for breathability, but in very hot conditions, some warmth may be felt. Ensure socks are also breathable. Allow shoes to air out after use.
Outsole traction seems low
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. The traction may vary depending on the surface; these shoes are designed for typical running and gym surfaces.
