FAQs
How do I determine my correct shoe size?
Refer to the ASICS size chart, and measure your foot in centimeters or inches. Convert this to the UK size to find the correct fit. Consider that the fit might be different from other shoe brands.
Can these shoes be used for road running?
While primarily designed for trails, the Gel-Sonoma 8 can be used for light road running. However, the outsole is optimized for off-road use, so may wear down faster on asphalt.
How do I clean my ASICS Gel-Sonoma 8 shoes?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. Wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat.
What is the lifespan of these shoes?
The lifespan depends on usage and terrain. Generally, trail running shoes should be replaced after 300-500 miles of use, or when the cushioning and traction diminish significantly.
What kind of socks should I wear with these shoes?
It is recommended to use running socks designed for trail running. These offer moisture-wicking properties and additional cushioning.
Are the Gel-Sonoma 8 shoes waterproof?
The Gel-Sonoma 8 shoes are not waterproof. They are designed to be breathable, but will not prevent water from entering the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight.
Ensure you have the correct UK size, and consider if you have thick socks on. Try a half-size larger if necessary.
Traction feels inadequate on wet surfaces.
Adjust your stride and be mindful of the terrain. The outsole is designed for various terrains, but always exercise caution on very slippery surfaces.
