FAQs

What type of activities are these trainers best suited for?

The ASICS GEL-KINETIC FLUENT trainers are best suited for everyday casual wear, walking, commuting, and light athletic activities. They are not recommended for high-intensity sports or professional athletic training.

How does the GEL technology work?

The Scutoid GEL Technology is strategically placed within the midsole to enhance impact absorption. It helps to minimize shock during heel strikes and provides a softer landing.

Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?

The fit can vary, but ASICS trainers generally offer a standard fit. It is recommended to check specific sizing guides or try them on if possible.

What is the FF BLAST PLUS ECO cushioning?

FF BLAST PLUS ECO is a lightweight and responsive foam cushioning made with recycled materials. It provides a soft feel and improved bounce-back for enhanced comfort.

How should I clean the trainers?

Clean the trainers using a soft brush or a damp cloth to remove dirt. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Allow them to air dry naturally.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the materials offer some protection, they are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to maintain their condition and comfort.

What is the main inspiration behind the design?

The design draws inspiration from ASICS' archived running shoes from the past, incorporating technical elements like welding and eyelet structures from the 2010s, updated with modern materials and construction.

Troubleshooting

Slightly tight fit upon first wear

Wear the trainers around the house for short periods to allow them to naturally mold to your feet. Avoid prolonged wear until they feel comfortable.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

Ensure the trainers are clean and free from debris that might affect the cushioning. Check for any visible damage to the sole or midsole.

Discoloration of materials

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean with a damp cloth as needed, and ensure proper drying away from heat sources.
