ASICS Gel-Pulse 17 Trainers - Black - UK 8

The Gel-Pulse 17 is best suited for neutral runners who need balanced cushioning for road running, gym workouts, and daily activities.

It offers balanced cushioning with FF BLAST and GEL technologies, enhanced by an extra 2mm of foam in the midsole for a soft feel.

The heel-to-toe drop is 8mm.

While comfortable for long runs, their primary design is for general road running and training. For elite marathon performance or specific support needs, other models might be more specialized.

Clean with a soft brush or damp cloth. For a deeper clean, hand wash with mild soap and cold water. Air dry away from direct heat.

The trainers weigh approximately 235g, making them lightweight for extended wear.

No, the Gel-Pulse 17 is designed specifically for road running and gym use. The outsole may not provide adequate grip or durability for trail surfaces.

Ensure correct sizing. Try wearing appropriate athletic socks. Break in the shoes gradually with shorter wear times initially.

Cushioning naturally diminishes with extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes after significant mileage (typically 300-500 miles for running shoes).

While designed for good traction, extremely wet or slippery conditions can challenge any outsole. Clean the outsole regularly to remove debris that may affect grip.
