FAQs

How do I clean my Gel-Sonoma 8 shoes?

Use a brush to remove dirt. Hand wash with mild soap and water. Air dry away from direct sunlight.

What kind of terrain are these shoes best suited for?

They are designed for trail running on various surfaces, including dirt, gravel, and light mud. Not ideal for road running.

How long should my shoes last?

The lifespan depends on usage and terrain. Replace them when the cushioning wears out or the tread is gone.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The uppers are breathable but not fully waterproof. They can handle light moisture but are not designed for deep puddles.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Refer to the ASICS size chart and measure your feet. Try the shoes on before running to ensure comfort.

Can I use these shoes for road running?

While you can use them on roads, they are optimized for trail running. Road running may wear down the outsole faster.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable.

Check the lacing and ensure you have the correct size. Consider a different lacing technique or a wider shoe size.

Poor grip on wet surfaces.

Reduce your pace and be cautious on wet trails. Ensure the outsole is clean and free of mud.

The upper material tears.

Contact ASICS customer service or seek professional repair if the damage is minor. Replace the shoes if the damage affects performance.

Cushioning feels flat after a short time.

Ensure the shoes have been broken in and consider replacing the insoles. If the cushioning continues to be an issue, it might be time to replace the shoes.
