Product Information

Full details

The SHUSHU/TONG x ASICS Gel Kinetic Fluent trainers are designed for adults seeking a blend of avant-garde fashion and athletic performance. Their key benefit lies in the advanced cushioning technology providing superior comfort and impact absorption, making them suitable for both everyday wear and stylish outfits. A potential caveat is their unique design, which may appeal more to fashion-forward individuals than traditional athletes. These sneakers integrate FF BLAST™ PLUS cushioning and scutoid GEL™ technology, featuring a sculpted sole and welded overlays for stability and visual appeal. Crafted for durability with abrasion resistance, they offer a low-top casual silhouette.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for professional running?

While they incorporate ASICS's advanced cushioning and GEL™ technology, their primary design focus is on fashion and lifestyle. They are excellent for everyday comfort and style but are not optimized for professional athletic performance.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to the ASICS sizing chart available on their official website, paying attention to the UK sizing if applicable. Measure your foot length and compare it with the provided chart. These are listed in UK adult men's sizing.

What is the primary material used for the upper?

The description highlights engineered materials for abrasion resistance and a blend of avant-garde design with athletic technology, suggesting a mix of synthetic textiles and durable overlays.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the cushioning, adhesives, and delicate design elements. Hand clean with a damp cloth and mild soap as per the care instructions.

What makes the 'scutoid GEL™ technology' special?

Scutoid GEL™ technology is an advanced form of ASICS's GEL™ cushioning, engineered to provide more natural impact absorption and a smoother transition from heel strike to toe-off.

Does this collaboration come in other colors?

Yes, this collaboration is available in different colorways, including Blue Expanse and Monaco Blue, and also in Blue/Black variations, depending on the specific model and retailer.

What is the warranty period for these shoes?

Warranty information typically varies by retailer and region. It is best to check with the point of purchase or the official ASICS website for specific warranty details and duration.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels stiff or uncomfortable initially

New shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time to allow the materials to mold to your feet.

Dirt or stains on the upper material

Gently wipe the affected area with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and test on an inconspicuous area first. Do not soak the shoes.

Uneven wear on the sole

Check your gait and footwear. Significant uneven wear might indicate an underlying issue with foot mechanics. For the shoes themselves, ensure they are being used for their intended purpose (casual wear and light activity).

Color transfer onto socks or feet

This can occasionally happen with new, darker colored footwear due to dye. It is usually temporary and can be reduced after a few wears or washes of associated socks. Ensure the shoes are fully dry before wearing.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional comfort due to advanced cushioning technologies.
  • Unique and stylish design that stands out.
  • Durable construction for long-lasting wear.
  • Versatile for both athletic-inspired casual looks and fashion statements.
  • Good stability and impact absorption.

Cons

  • The avant-garde design may not suit all personal styles.
  • Primarily a fashion-focused shoe with athletic inspiration, not for elite athletic performance.
  • Specific colorways may have limited availability.
  • Care may be required to maintain the unique aesthetic elements.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no assembly. Simply unbox and wear.

Compatibility: Designed for adult unisex wear, these shoes are compatible with standard sock wear. They pair well with a wide range of casual attire, including jeans, shorts, joggers, and casual dresses.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: For minor dirt and scuffs, use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to gently clean the surfaces. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the materials or the design elements.
  • Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can warp the shape or damage the adhesives.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve color and material integrity. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape when not in use.
