Product Information
Full details
The ASICS GT-2160 DIME is a collaborative trainer designed for adult users who prioritize a blend of nostalgic 2000s aesthetic and modern performance engineering. It is an ideal choice for those seeking a reliable daily sneaker, offering superior impact protection through signature GEL cushioning and stable support; however, its specific ombre grey colorway and collaborative branding make it more of a style-forward lifestyle piece than a dedicated long-distance performance racer.

FAQs
Is the ASICS GT-2160 DIME suitable for marathons?
While it features performance technology, it is designed primarily as a lifestyle trainer. For long-distance running, look for dedicated high-performance running series.
Does the shoe run true to size?
The GT-2160 generally follows standard sizing for adult ASICS footwear. If you wear thick socks, you may want to ensure your specific size provides enough room in the toe box.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Gently dab with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not submerge the shoes in water as this can damage the structural glue.
Can I remove the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if required.
What is the primary difference between this and the standard GT-2160?
The DIME edition features specific colorways, DIME-branded embossing, and collaborative aesthetic details not found on standard releases.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, they are made with breathable mesh which allows water to pass through. They are not intended for heavy rain or wet conditions.
Troubleshooting
Material scuffing on the upper
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning foam and a soft microfiber cloth to gently buff out surface marks.
Reduced cushioning feel over time
Ensure the insole is properly seated and hasn't folded; replace with a generic orthotic if arch support feels diminished.
Laces coming undone frequently
Double-knot the laces or consider replacing them with elastic laces if a secure, slip-on fit is preferred.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ASICS GT-2160 DIME trainers, perform a proper fit check upon arrival by ensuring there is a thumb-width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. For care, avoid machine washing; instead, spot clean with a soft-bristled brush, mild soap, and cold water. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct sunlight or heat sources to prevent the mesh and adhesives from degrading. When not in use, store them in a cool, dry place to maintain the shape of the midsole cushioning.
