FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for marathon running?

The Gel-Pulse 17 offers good cushioning for shorter to medium-distance runs and general training. For marathon distances, runners may prefer shoes with more specialized, long-distance cushioning systems.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the ASICS sizing guide and measure your foot length. Compare your measurement to the UK sizing chart provided. It is recommended to try them on if possible, as sizing can vary slightly.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the cushioning, adhesives, and materials. Hand wash using a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry.

What is the main benefit of the FF BLAST cushioning?

FF BLAST cushioning provides a soft landing and a responsive toe-off, contributing to a comfortable and energetic running experience.

How does the AHARPLUS rubber improve durability?

AHARPLUS is a highly abrasion-resistant rubber compound used in the heel area, designed to be approximately three times more durable than standard outsole rubber, extending the life of the shoe.

Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?

The standard fit is designed for average width feet. If you have wide feet, check for specific wide (2E) or extra-wide (4E) versions, though these may not be available for all colorways or models.

What is the heel height of these trainers?

The heel height is flat, typically ranging between 1 to 3 cm, providing a stable base.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the lacing system to achieve a secure but comfortable fit. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size based on your foot measurement.

Reduced cushioning effect over time.

The cushioning technologies are designed for durability, but prolonged heavy use can diminish their responsiveness. Consider replacing the shoes after significant mileage or wear.

Discomfort during running or workouts.

Ensure the shoes are appropriate for your pronation type. If you experience persistent discomfort, consult a specialist or consider alternative footwear.

Mesh upper appears dirty.

Gently clean the mesh with a soft brush and a mild detergent solution. Rinse with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
