FAQs
What is the main inspiration behind the Gel-Nunobiki's design?
The Gel-Nunobiki's design is inspired by early 2000s trail shoes and the serene natural landscape of the Nunobiki waterfall area in Kobe, Japan. It also incorporates design elements from ASICS' GEL-KAHANA 3 and GEL-TARGET models.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are designed with a flat heel and an urban trail aesthetic, making them more suitable for walking, casual wear, and light training rather than high-impact running or specialized athletic activities.
What materials are the ASICS Gel-Nunobiki Trainers made of?
The trainers feature a 100% polyurethane upper, a 100% textile lining, 100% textile cushioning, and a 100% rubber sole.
How should I clean my Gel-Nunobiki Trainers?
Clean the polyurethane upper with a damp cloth. For the lining, spot clean with mild detergent and water. Ensure the rubber sole is wiped clean. Always air dry and avoid direct heat.
What does 'urban trail aesthetic' mean for these shoes?
It refers to a design that blends the ruggedness and textures found in nature and trail environments with a style suitable for city wear. The matte and semi-gloss synthetic layers create this look.
Do these trainers offer arch support?
The Gel-Nunobiki features textile cushioning for support. However, they have a flat heel and are not specifically designed with advanced arch support features for medical conditions. For specialized support, consider consulting with a footwear specialist.
Can these trainers be worn by both men and women?
While this specific product listing is for men's sizing (UK 6.5), the Gel-Nunobiki series is often available in unisex options and various sizes suitable for both genders.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot. Consider replacing laces if they are worn or slippery.
Discomfort after prolonged wear
Ensure you have the correct size and fit. If the issue persists, consider adding an insole for extra cushioning, although the shoe already has textile cushioning.
Difficulty cleaning synthetic upper
Use a soft brush with mild soap and water for stubborn marks. Always wipe dry with a clean cloth.
