Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS GEL-NUNOBIKI trainers maintain their appearance, follow these care guidelines: Regularly remove surface dust using a soft-bristled brush. Because the shoe features a mix of matte and semi-shiny synthetic layers, avoid using harsh industrial cleaners or solvents which could strip the finish. If the trainers get wet, let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can damage synthetic bonding agents. When choosing your size, these shoes are standard adult sizing; ensure you verify your specific UK size for the best fit.
