FAQs
What does 'Nunobiki' refer to?
'Nunobiki' literally translates to 'path of serene waterfalls' and is a location in Kobe, Japan, inspiring the design of these trainers.
Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?
The ASICS Gel-Nunobiki Trainers are designed for urban trail aesthetics and general comfort. They are not specialized for high-performance marathon running and may not provide the necessary support or cushioning for such intense activities.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the ASICS sizing chart available on the product page or the ASICS website. It is recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the provided measurements, paying attention to UK sizing.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the trainers. Spot cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method for cleaning.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is primarily made from 100% polyurethane.
What kind of activities are these trainers best suited for?
They are best suited for casual wear, daily commuting, light walks, and exploring urban environments with a trail-inspired aesthetic.
Is the cushioning removable?
The product details indicate 100% textile cushioning. While not explicitly stated as removable, it is generally integrated into the shoe's design for comfort.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose.
Adjust the lacing system. For a tighter fit, pull the laces more firmly. For a looser fit, slacken the laces. Ensure you are using the correct UK size by consulting the ASICS sizing chart.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
Ensure the rubber soles are clean and free from excessive dirt or debris. For new shoes, the sole may need a short 'breaking-in' period on varied surfaces. If the issue persists on smooth, wet surfaces, be mindful of their intended use on urban trails and varied terrains.
Discoloration on the polyurethane upper.
Gently clean the affected area with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight for prolonged periods, which can contribute to fading or discoloration.
