FAQs
How do I know if I have the correct UK size?
It is best to try the shoes on indoors on a carpeted surface before wearing them outside. Compare the size on the shoe or box to a reliable UK sizing chart. Remember that US and European sizes can differ significantly.
Can I wear these trainers for gym workouts?
Yes, the Asics Gel-Phoenix 13 trainers are suitable for general gym workouts due to their cushioning and stability. However, for highly specific activities like weightlifting or court sports, specialized footwear might offer better performance.
What is the primary benefit of the GEL™ technology?
The GEL™ technology is designed to provide excellent shock absorption, reducing impact on your joints during running and improving overall comfort.
How often should I clean my Gel-Phoenix 13 trainers?
Clean your trainers as needed, typically after runs that involve significant dirt or mud. A light wipe-down with a damp cloth is usually sufficient for general maintenance.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the Asics Gel-Phoenix 13 trainers feature a breathable textile upper that is not waterproof. They are designed for performance and comfort in dry to moderately wet conditions.
What type of running surfaces are these best suited for?
These trainers are primarily designed for road running and general fitness activities. The anti-slip sole provides good traction on pavements, tracks, and other hard surfaces.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles in the Asics Gel-Phoenix 13 trainers are typically removable, allowing you to replace them with custom orthotics or different insoles if desired.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels incorrect.
Refer to the sizing guide and compare UK, US, and EU sizes carefully. Try the shoes on indoors on a clean surface to ensure a proper fit before wearing them outside. Consider the possibility of slight variations between different models or colorways.
Reduced cushioning effectiveness over time.
The GEL™ technology is designed for durability, but cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. Ensure you are not exceeding the recommended mileage for optimal performance. Regular cleaning can help maintain the shoe's integrity.
Traction is poor on wet surfaces.
While the anti-slip sole offers good grip, performance can be affected by excessive wear or specific surface conditions. Ensure the sole is clean of debris. For challenging wet conditions, exercise extra caution.
Upper material feels too warm.
The breathable textile upper is designed for airflow. If overheating persists, consider wearing moisture-wicking socks or ensuring the shoes are not excessively tight, which can restrict airflow. The shoes are best suited for moderate to cool conditions for maximum breathability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These trainers require no specific setup. Simply ensure you have selected the correct size for a comfortable fit. It is recommended to try them on indoors before wearing them outdoors to confirm the fit and return if necessary.
Compatibility:
The Asics Gel-Phoenix 13 trainers are designed for adult runners. They are compatible with most standard athletic socks. While they excel on road surfaces, they can also be used for light trails and general fitness activities.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: To clean, use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris from the upper and sole. Avoid machine washing, as this can damage the materials and construction.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can cause materials to degrade or shrink.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure they are clean before storing for extended periods.
