FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard ASICS sizing. If you have particularly wide feet, you may consider a half-size up.
Can I use these for marathon running?
While they feature advanced cushioning, these are designed for lifestyle and everyday wear, not for high-performance long-distance running.
How do I maintain the faux leather finish?
Keep them clean with a soft cloth and avoid harsh chemical cleaners or oil-based polishes.
Is the insole removable?
Yes, the insoles are removable if you prefer to use your own custom orthotics.
What is the primary benefit of the Scutoid GEL technology?
Scutoid GEL provides superior shock absorption compared to traditional foam, reducing the impact forces transmitted through your legs.
Troubleshooting
Visible scuffs on high-gloss panels
Use a specialized non-abrasive cleaner suitable for synthetic leathers to gently buff the area.
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Ensure the laces are tensioned correctly through all the technical eyelets to lock the midfoot in place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are designed for immediate wear straight out of the box with no complex break-in period required. To ensure your footwear remains in top condition:
- Routine Cleaning: Wipe down the faux leather and high-gloss panels with a soft, damp cloth after wear to remove dust and grime.
- Avoid Immersion: Never machine wash these shoes, as the internal GEL units and bonding agents may be compromised by excess heat and moisture.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the high-gloss materials from dulling or cracking over time.
- Lacing: Adjust the technical lace eyelets securely to customize your fit, ensuring the tongue sits flush for maximum comfort.
