Asics replacement spikes
« on: March 31, 2015, 09:48:32 PM »

Anyone know where to get them or do any forum sponsors have them in stock? My Gel Adv 5s' spikes are well worn out and I need a new set for the start of the season, would ideally like to get the Asics ones to match the shoes but haven't had any luck looking online.

GM spikes fit OK
Spikes really don't need to match, I don't think anyone's looking at the bottom of you boots mate

i had the same problem once. search online for "asics soft resin". those are the ones you want. most likely can only find them from aussie retailers. also have to note how many in one box - some boxes have 12, whereas one pair needs 18. so you'll have to buy more than 1.

Just buy some generic spikes from somewhere like Sports Direct mate (usually found in the golf section). I paid £2 for 18 and they lasted fine last season.

Spikes are spikes, and aesthetically they're only going on the bottom of your shoe so it doesn't matter if they're the same brand as the shoe really.

Should point out that by match I mean are the same type and fit the boots properly, not that I'm that concerned about colour matching my boots!

Might investigate the GM ones, they look similar. brokenbat you're quite right, only seem to be available in packs of 12 in Australia...

Shop sponsors, one of you must know if they're available or not?
