FAQs
What is the primary inspiration behind the GEL-QUANTUM KEI name?
The name "KEI" is inspired by the Japanese word for lightness, reflecting the shoe's design focus on being lightweight and comfortable.
What types of activities are these trainers best suited for?
They are best suited for everyday wear, walking, and light activities that require comfort and support. They are not specifically designed for high-impact sports.
How do I clean the ASICS GEL-QUANTUM KEI trainers?
Clean using a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemicals. Allow to air dry naturally.
Can I wear these trainers with orthotics?
Yes, the insole is typically removable, allowing space for most standard orthotics. However, fit may vary.
What is the main difference between FLYTEFOAM and GEL technology in these shoes?
FLYTEFOAM provides lightweight, energy-returning cushioning, while GEL technology offers superior shock absorption, particularly in key impact zones.
Are these trainers suitable for wet weather conditions?
While they offer some protection, they are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may result in wet feet.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them for short periods initially to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape. Ensure laces are not over-tightened.
Slight squeaking noise
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try inserting a powder-free foot powder inside the shoe or check for any loose parts of the sole.
Discomfort after prolonged wear
Ensure you have the correct size and fit. For extended activity, consider if the shoe's cushioning level meets your specific needs.
