FAQs
What is the main benefit of the GEL™ technology?
The GEL™ technology in the midsole provides excellent shock absorption, reducing impact on your feet and joints during runs.
Are these trainers suitable for trail running?
The Asics Gel-Phoenix 13 trainers are primarily designed for road running. While the anti-slip sole offers some grip, they are not optimized for technical trail running.
How should I clean my Gel-Phoenix 13 trainers?
Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat.
What does 'anti-slip sole' mean for performance?
The anti-slip sole is designed with specific tread patterns and rubber compounds to enhance traction and stability on various running surfaces, reducing the risk of slipping.
Why might the sizing on the box be different from the UK size?
Footwear manufacturers often use different sizing conventions (e.g., US, Euro). The UK size is the primary reference, but the box may display equivalent international sizes. Always confirm fit.
Can adults use these trainers?
Yes, these trainers are specifically designed for adult runners.
Troubleshooting
Trainer feels too tight or loose
Adjust the laces using the lace-up closure. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size; consider trying on if unsure.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
While durable, cushioning may gradually reduce with extensive use. Consider replacement after significant mileage for optimal performance.
Slipping on wet surfaces
The anti-slip sole provides enhanced grip, but extreme wet conditions can still pose a risk. Exercise caution on very slick surfaces.
