Who is this shoe best suited for?

How do I clean my ASICS GT 2160 DIME Arctic Wolf shoes?

Clean the shoes by gently wiping the exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents.

Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

While they offer excellent cushioning and support for daily runs and shorter distances, for marathon-specific training, consider shoes with more advanced long-distance features, though these can still perform well for shorter runs within a marathon training block.

What is the benefit of the DuoMax Support System?

The DuoMax Support System is an ASICS technology that provides a dual-density midsole for enhanced stability and support, helping to control pronation.

Can the reflective accents be washed off?

The reflective accents are integrated into the design. Following the recommended care instructions will help preserve their reflectivity.

What surfaces are the rubber outsoles designed for?

The high-abrasion rubber outsoles are designed for durability and traction on a variety of surfaces, primarily roads and other common running terrains.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort during the first few wears

This is common as shoes break in. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase duration. Ensure you have the correct size and fit.

Reduced traction on wet surfaces

The high-abrasion rubber outsole provides good traction, but extreme wet conditions may still pose a risk. Clean the outsole regularly to remove debris that could affect grip.

Reflective accents losing reflectivity

Avoid abrasive cleaning methods that could damage the reflective material. Follow the recommended care instructions for cleaning.
