Good to know

ASICS recommends replacing running shoes every 500–800 km, depending on your weight, gait, and surface. The removable sockliner allows you to insert custom orthotics if needed. For best fit, measure your foot in the evening when it's slightly swollen, and consider going half a size up from your casual shoes. The Patriot 14 runs true to size for most runners, but those with wide feet may prefer a wider width option.
