FAQs
Are the ASICS GT-2160 suitable for wide feet?
The standard fit is designed for average foot widths. If you have wider feet, it's advisable to try them on in person or check for specific wide-fit variations if available.
Can I wear these for long-distance running?
Yes, the GT-2160's cushioning and stability features make them suitable for long-distance running, providing comfort and support over extended periods.
What is the primary benefit of the GEL technology?
The GEL technology inserts are strategically placed to absorb shock during impact, providing a softer landing and reducing stress on your feet and joints.
How should I clean the mesh upper?
Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to gently remove dirt from the mesh. Avoid soaking the shoes or using machine washing.
What is the main difference between these and other ASICS models?

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If still tight, try loosening the laces and wearing them for short periods to allow the materials to adapt.
Discomfort during runs
Check lacing technique for proper support. Ensure the shoe's stability features are suitable for your gait. Consider consulting a professional for gait analysis if issues persist.
Reduced cushioning over time
While the GEL technology is durable, cushioning can degrade with extensive use. Regular cleaning and proper care can help maintain performance. If significant degradation occurs, consider replacement.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for a wide range of activities, including running, walking, and general athletic training. They are suitable for adult males.
Care Instructions: To maintain the quality and longevity of your trainers:
- Cleaning: Gently clean the exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the materials.
- Drying: If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can warp the shape and materials.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, when not in use.
- Laundering: It is not recommended to machine wash or dry these trainers, as this can compromise their structural integrity and cushioning.
