FAQs
What type of foot strike is this shoe best for?
The GEL-PULSE 17 is designed for neutral runners, meaning it works well for individuals who do not overpronate or excessively supinate. The cushioning systems support a natural foot motion.
Can I use these for trail running?
These trainers are primarily designed for road running, gym use, and general fitness. The outsole tread may not provide sufficient grip or protection for uneven, rugged trail surfaces.
How do I know if I have the right size?
There should be a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. Ensure the heel does not slip and the midfoot feels secure without being constrictive.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the technical mesh upper is designed for breathability and is not waterproof. They are suitable for dry conditions or light moisture but not for heavy rain or puddles.
How often should I replace my running shoes?
For optimal performance and injury prevention, running shoes are typically replaced every 300-500 miles (480-800 kilometers) or when the cushioning and support feel noticeably diminished.
What does the solution dyeing process for the insole mean?
Solution dyeing involves coloring the material during the manufacturing process, which significantly reduces water consumption and carbon emissions compared to traditional dyeing methods.
Can I put these in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand washing with a mild detergent and air drying is the preferred method to preserve the integrity and shape of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking sound during wear
This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and the midsole. Try removing the insole, checking for debris, and reinserting it firmly. A light dusting of talcum powder under the insole might also help.
Feet feel overly warm
Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking socks. The mesh upper provides breathability, but appropriate socks can further enhance comfort by managing sweat.
Reduced cushioning after initial use
Cushioning materials can compress slightly over time with regular use. Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn; if performance significantly degrades, it may be time for a replacement.
