What is the main benefit of the GEL technology?
The GEL technology in the heel and forefoot provides exceptional shock absorption, reducing impact on your joints and ensuring a smoother ride.

What is the expected lifespan of these trainers?

What other colorways or sizes are available?
This guide focuses on the Black/Grey UK 13 model. Other sizes and color variations may be available from ASICS retailers.
Troubleshooting
Unusual squeaking noise
This can sometimes occur with new shoes due to air trapped between layers. Try wearing them for a few more runs. If the noise persists, check for debris in the sole or consider a light dusting of talcum powder inside the shoe.
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure you have the correct size and width. Try adjusting the lacing pattern for a more personalized fit. Break in the shoes gradually with shorter runs before attempting longer distances.
Reduced cushioning over time
The cushioning may naturally reduce after significant mileage. If performance feels notably diminished, it may be time to consider replacing the shoes, typically after 300-500 miles of running.
