Product Information

Full details

The ASICS GT-2160 is a versatile, lifestyle-focused trainer designed for adults who value the intersection of early 2010s technical aesthetics and modern comfort. Featuring iconic GEL technology and a durable, sleek construction, it is perfect for daily urban wear; however, users should note that the leather and mesh construction requires regular cleaning to maintain its premium black and grey finish.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?

While based on a running series, the modern GT-2160 is primarily designed as a lifestyle trainer. It is best suited for walking and casual activities rather than high-mileage training.

How should I clean the leather sections?

Wipe the leather parts with a clean, soft cloth dampened with a mild leather cleaner or just water. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Does the sizing run true to size?

Yes, the GT-2160 generally follows standard athletic shoe sizing. If you have wider feet, you may prefer a half-size larger for extra comfort.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are removable and can be swapped for custom orthotics if preferred.

Is this shoe water-resistant?

The mesh upper is breathable and will not prevent water from entering during heavy rain; it is not classified as waterproof.

What is the primary material?

The shoe features a combination of breathable mesh and high-quality leather overlays for durability and support.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on the mesh panels

Use a soft brush to gently loosen debris and a dry cloth to wipe the surface. Do not submerge the shoes in water.

Creasing on the leather overlays

Use a shoe tree when not in use to help the leather maintain its shape and reduce permanent creasing.

GEL cushioning feels less bouncy over time

Ensure the outsole is free of debris. If the midsole has reached the end of its life cycle, consider replacing the footbed with an aftermarket performance insole.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional cushioning provided by GEL technology
  • Stylish, retro-inspired aesthetic that fits modern streetwear trends
  • Durable material composition including leather accents
  • Lightweight feel suitable for all-day comfort
  • Unisex design suitable for a variety of foot shapes

Cons

  • Leather and mesh materials require careful maintenance
  • Limited to lifestyle use rather than high-performance technical running
  • The monochromatic colour scheme may show dust or debris more readily

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your ASICS GT-2160 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the mesh panels. For the leather overlays, use a slightly damp cloth to wipe away scuffs.
  • Drying: Always air dry at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators, as these can warp the materials or damage the adhesive.
  • Maintenance: Periodically remove the insoles to allow them to air out, which helps prevent odour buildup.

Compatibility:

  • These shoes are unisex and sized for adults. Ensure you verify your UK sizing before purchase, as leather construction does not stretch as much as pure fabric sneakers.
