FAQs
Is the GT-2000 15 suitable for long-distance running?
Yes, it is designed for daily training and provides sufficient comfort and support for long-distance efforts.
How often should I replace these trainers?
It is generally recommended to replace trainers every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and gait.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
No, they are designed with breathable mesh materials that allow airflow and moisture to escape, meaning they are not waterproof.
Can I use custom orthotics with these shoes?
Yes, the sockliners in the GT-2000 15 are removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if required.
Are these suitable for gym workouts?
While intended for running, their stable base makes them suitable for light gym use, though they may lack the lateral support required for intense side-to-side agility drills.
Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort or hot spots
Adjust your lacing pattern; using a 'runner's loop' can secure the heel and reduce internal friction.
Outer sole wear
Monitor the tread pattern; if the grip is worn smooth, the cushioning may also be compressed, indicating it is time to replace the pair.
Excessive moisture inside the shoe
Stuff the shoes with dry newspaper or a moisture-absorbing cloth after runs to speed up the drying process.

- Effective impact absorption for joint comfort

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your ASICS GT-2000 15, confirm you are wearing the correct UK size for your foot, noting that these are designed as adult male trainers. When you first receive them, perform a "walk-in" period of 10-15 miles to allow the foam to settle and for the upper to conform to your foot shape.
Care Instructions:
- Do not machine wash or dry these shoes, as heat can degrade the cushioning foam.
- Clean the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed.
- Allow the shoes to air dry naturally in a shaded, well-ventilated area.
- Remove the sockliner to dry separately if the shoes become wet inside during a rainy run.
