ASICS GT-2160 DIME Arctic Wolf - Grey - UK 4

The DuoMax Support System is designed to enhance stability and support by providing a firmer density on the medial (inner) side of the shoe, helping to control pronation.

While the GEL cushioning and support offer comfort, these shoes are best suited for daily training runs and distances up to a half-marathon. For ultra-marathon distances, a shoe with more specific long-distance cushioning might be preferred.

Clean the reflective accents gently with a damp cloth and mild soap, avoiding abrasive materials that could damage the reflective coating.

The 'DIME' branding on the heel signifies a special collaboration between ASICS and the Canadian skateboarding brand, DIME, which inspired this reimagined version of the GT-2160.

While they can be used for light gym activities, their primary design is for running. For dedicated cross-training, a shoe with more lateral stability might be more appropriate.

The lifespan of running shoes typically ranges from 300 to 500 miles, depending on factors like running surface, your gait, and shoe care. Regularly inspect the outsole for wear and cushioning for responsiveness.

This specific 'Arctic Wolf' model is part of a collaboration and features this distinctive ombre gray colorway, along with a white variant. Other GT-2160 models may be available in different colors.

Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing them with different types of running socks. Break them in gradually with shorter walks or runs.

Running shoes typically lose cushioning after 300-500 miles. Consider replacing the shoes if you notice a significant decrease in shock absorption.

The high-abrasion rubber outsole provides good traction, but caution is advised on extremely wet or slick surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris.

New shoes may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time to allow the materials to conform to your foot.
