FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for triathlon transitions?
Yes, the Noosa TRI series is specifically designed for endurance performance and is often favored by triathletes for its quick-feel and responsive transition capabilities.
Do these trainers provide stability for overpronation?
The Noosa TRI 16 is generally classified as a neutral trainer. While the full-ground contact design provides inherent stability, it does not include heavy medial posting for significant overpronation correction.
Can I use these for track workouts?
The advanced grip of the ASICSGRIP outsole makes these shoes very effective for track training, offering great traction on synthetic surfaces.
How should I choose the right size?
These trainers follow standard adult UK sizing. It is recommended to leave about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to accommodate foot swelling during long runs.
Is the mesh upper durable?
The engineered mesh is designed for high-performance breathability. While durable, it should be kept away from sharp rocks or dense brush to prevent snags.
Troubleshooting
Feeling instability during initial wears
The GUIDESOLE rocker profile can feel unique; walk in the shoes for several days to allow your feet and ankles to adjust to the new gait pattern.
Outsole collecting debris
Use a soft brush to clear small pebbles or dirt from the textured ASICSGRIP outsole after runs to maintain optimal traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your trainers, it is recommended to rotate them with other footwear to allow the cushioning materials to decompress between uses. These shoes are compatible with standard running socks and orthotic insoles if additional arch support is required. For cleaning, wipe the exterior mesh with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap; avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can compromise the integrity of the foam and the bonding of the materials. Air dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
