FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The ASICS GT-2160 trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and feature cushioning suitable for walking and light activities. For high-impact running, specialized running shoes from ASICS would offer more targeted support and performance.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to a standard UK shoe sizing chart. Measure your foot length from heel to toe and compare it to the chart provided by ASICS or the retailer. The product specifies UK 12 in this instance.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from a combination of breathable mesh and synthetic overlays.

How often should I clean my trainers?

Clean your trainers as needed, especially after exposure to dirt or spills. Regular spot cleaning and occasional deeper cleaning will help maintain their appearance and longevity.

Can I wear these trainers in the rain?

While the materials offer some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. They can withstand light moisture, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended. Ensure they dry completely afterward.

What does 'GT-2160' signify?

GT in ASICS typically stands for 'Global Traditional', indicating a lineage of heritage running shoe designs. The number series often represents a specific model's evolution.

What is the main benefit of the GEL technology?

The GEL technology inserts are designed to provide excellent shock absorption, reducing impact on your joints during wear and enhancing overall comfort.

Troubleshooting

Unusual squeaking sound

This can sometimes occur due to moisture between layers. Try wearing thicker socks or allow the shoes to air out completely.

Reduced cushioning over time

While GEL technology is durable, cushioning can naturally reduce with extensive use. Consider cleaning and ensuring proper fit, or explore replacement options if heavily worn.

Traction feels slippery on wet surfaces

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean. For very wet conditions, exercise caution as smooth rubber can be less effective on slick surfaces.
