FAQs

What is the primary inspiration behind the Gel-Kinetic Fluent design?

The design is inspired by retro running shoes, Kiko Kostadinov Studio, and concepts like insulated grottos and the STREAL 361 soccer spike.

What makes the cushioning system special?

It features a combination of GEL-Scutoid Technology for shock absorption and FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO for lightweight, responsive cushioning, with the latter being partially made from recycled materials.

Are these trainers suitable for serious running training?

They are designed for urban exploration and running, offering good comfort and support for moderate activities. For intensive or specialized training, dedicated performance running shoes might be more appropriate.

How do I clean the unique two-tone mesh upper?

Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to gently clean the mesh. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive materials that could damage the texture or color.

What does the TRUSSTIC mechanism do?

The TRUSSTIC mechanism provides midfoot stability, enhancing the shoe's structural integrity and supporting the foot during movement.

What materials are used in the upper construction?

The upper is primarily constructed from a unique two-tone mesh, complemented by textile and synthetic overlays for durability and support.

Is this a standard Asics model or a special release?

This is a limited edition collaboration with Kiko Kostadinov, part of the ASICS SportStyle line, featuring a unique design and colorway.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try wearing them with different types of socks. Break them in gradually with short periods of wear.

Reduced cushioning or responsiveness

The cushioning may take a few wears to fully adapt to your foot. Ensure the shoes are clean and free from debris that might affect performance. Over time, cushioning naturally decreases with extensive use.

Color transfer or fading

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Keep away from excessive moisture and colored fabrics that could bleed dye. Clean with appropriate methods as outlined in the care instructions.

Squeaking noises during walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction between components. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or between the outsole and midsole if accessible. Ensure laces are tied correctly.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Upper: For the mesh and synthetic overlays, use a soft brush or damp cloth to gently remove dirt and debris. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the materials or printed details.
  • Midsole and Outsole: Wipe the midsole and rubber outsole with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt on the outsole, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a thorough wipe-down with a clean, damp cloth.
  • Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can warp or damage the shoe.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, when not in use to preserve their color and material integrity.
  • Laces: If laces become dirty, they can typically be hand-washed separately with mild detergent and air-dried.
