Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight

As the GT-2160 may run small, consider ordering a half size up. If you've already purchased, try wearing them with thinner socks or see if they loosen slightly with continued wear.

Reduced cushioning over time

The cushioning is designed for everyday wear. For intensive activities, consider trainers specifically built for performance. Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn out.

Suede overlays look dirty

Use a soft brush or a specialized suede cleaner to gently remove dirt. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
