Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure points on the top of the foot
Try adjusting your lacing technique. Use a 'window lacing' method to alleviate pressure across the bridge of the foot.
Slippage in the heel area
Use the runner's loop (also known as the heel lock) lacing technique to ensure a tighter, more secure fit around the ankle.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS Gel-Pulse 17 trainers remain in peak condition, proper care and fit are essential.
- Fit: Ensure you have a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during exercise.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Never submerge the shoes in water or place them in a washing machine, as this can degrade the cushioning integrity.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as extreme heat can warp the materials and damage the adhesive layers.
- Rotation: Allow your trainers to air out for 24 hours between runs to maintain internal foam freshness.
