Your ASICS GT-2160 trainers are ready to wear right out of the box. Simply unlace them to your preferred tightness, slip them on, and adjust the lacing for a secure yet comfortable fit. No complex setup or break-in period is typically required, though allowing a short wear-in period can help the shoe conform to your foot shape.

Foot Type: While general-purpose, these trainers are designed for adult feet. Consult sizing guides and personal fit preferences. If you typically require specific arch support, consider adding custom insoles.
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your GT-2160 trainers.
Regular Cleaning: For light dirt, use a soft brush or damp cloth to gently wipe down the mesh upper and synthetic panels. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution (like diluted dish soap) can be applied with a soft brush, then wiped clean.
Midsole Cleaning: The segmented midsole and rubber outsole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade materials.
Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators or hair dryers) as these can damage materials and adhesives.
Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
Avoid Submersion: Do not machine wash or submerge the entire shoe in water, as this can compromise the structure and materials.
