ASICS GT-2000 13 - Pink/Purple - UK 6.5

These shoes are best suited for women runners who require moderate to high support and cushioning, particularly those who may experience mild to moderate overpronation and are looking for a stable and comfortable ride for daily training and long distances.

Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300-500 miles (approx. 480-800 km). However, this can vary based on your running style, body weight, and the surfaces you run on. Pay attention to signs of wear, such as reduced cushioning, decreased stability, or visible wear on the outsole.

It is generally not recommended to machine wash running shoes, as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and structural integrity. Instead, hand wash the exterior with mild soap and cold water, and air dry them away from direct heat.

The 3D GUIDANCE SYSTEM™ is a key technology in the GT-2000 13 that provides adaptive stability. It works by strategically supporting your foot's natural motion, guiding it through the gait cycle in a more efficient way, and enhancing overall stability during your run.

While primarily designed for running, the GT-2000 13 offers exceptional comfort and support, making them very comfortable for casual everyday wear. However, for optimal performance and longevity, it's best to reserve them mainly for running activities.

It's recommended to measure your feet and consult the ASICS sizing chart. Many runners find they need to go up a half size in running shoes compared to their street shoes. Try them on at the end of the day when your feet are slightly swollen, and ensure there's a thumb's width space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.

Ensure you have the correct shoe size and width. Check your lacing for overtightening or pressure points. Allow for a proper break-in period if shoes are new. If discomfort persists, consult with a running specialist to confirm these shoes are the best fit for your foot type and gait.

Re-evaluate your lacing technique to ensure a snug fit around the midfoot and heel. Try a 'heel lock' lacing method if you're experiencing heel slippage. Ensure the shoe's support features align with your foot's natural motion (e.g., if you overpronate, the guidance system should help, not hinder).

Remove insoles after each run to allow both the shoes and insoles to air dry completely. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes when not in use. Avoid storing shoes in damp, enclosed spaces. If possible, alternate between two pairs of shoes to allow each pair to fully dry out.
