FAQs
What is the main benefit of the GEL technology in these trainers?
The GEL technology is designed to provide superior shock absorption, reducing impact on your feet and joints during wear.
Are these trainers suitable for long-distance running?
While they offer excellent cushioning for everyday comfort, they are primarily designed as trainers for casual wear and light activities rather than specialized long-distance running.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the ASICS sizing guide and measure your foot. Trying them on in person is recommended for the best fit, as sizing can vary between models.
What is the difference between FF Blast Plus Eco and standard FF Blast cushioning?
FF Blast Plus Eco is a more environmentally conscious version of FF Blast cushioning, offering similar lightweight and responsive properties while utilizing sustainable materials.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the shoe. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.
What is the primary inspiration for the Gel-Kinetic Fluent series?
The Gel-Kinetic Fluent series is inspired by the archives of ASICS running shoe designs, blending classic aesthetics with modern performance technology.
Troubleshooting
Slight discomfort on first wear
This is common as shoes break in. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to adapt to your foot shape. Ensure the lacing is adjusted correctly.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
The cushioning may feel less pronounced after significant use. Consider cleaning the shoes and ensuring no debris is lodged in the sole or cushioning system.
Material scuffing or damage
Avoid abrasive surfaces. For minor scuffs, a specialized shoe cleaner or a slightly damp cloth may help. For significant damage, professional repair might be an option, but replacement is often necessary.
