FAQs

What is the primary design inspiration for these trainers?

The design is inspired by the art movement of simultanism, curated by Kiko Kostadinov Studio and ASICS SportStyle development team, featuring contrasting color palettes and abstract forms.

Are these trainers suitable for running or intense sports?

While they feature GEL™ Technology Cushioning for comfort, their design is primarily focused on style and casual wear. They are not optimized for high-intensity athletic performance.

How do I clean the mesh and leather parts of the trainers?

Spot clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. For leather overlays, use a specialized leather cleaner. Avoid machine washing and direct heat for drying.

What does the 'cage-like construction' refer to?

This refers to the design element on the upper of the shoe that creates a layered, cage-like appearance, contributing to the shoe's unique aesthetic.

What does 'simultanism' mean in the context of design?

Simultanism is an art concept focusing on the depiction of multiple viewpoints or elements simultaneously. In this design, it translates to contrasting colors and abstract applications on the shoe.

What is the benefit of GEL™ Technology Cushioning?

GEL™ Technology Cushioning provides excellent shock absorption, enhancing comfort during wear and reducing impact on the feet and joints.

Can I wear these trainers with different colored outfits?

Yes, the contrasting color palettes are designed to make a statement. They pair well with neutral outfits to allow the trainers to stand out, but can also complement other colored pieces depending on the desired look.

Troubleshooting

Discoloration on mesh material

Gently spot clean with a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Reduced cushioning over time

While GEL™ technology is durable, cushioning may naturally decrease with extensive use. Consider rotating with other footwear for longevity.

Leather overlay scuff marks

Use a dedicated leather cleaner or a slightly damp cloth to gently wipe away marks. For persistent scuffs, a leather conditioner can help.

Traction feels less secure on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole provides grip, but caution is advised on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris.

  • Durable construction with a combination of mesh and leather.
  • Versatile for casual wear and making a style statement.
  • Inspired by contemporary art concepts for a distinct look.

Cons

  • The abstract design may not appeal to those seeking traditional sneaker aesthetics.
  • Primarily styled for fashion; may not be optimized for high-intensity athletic performance.
  • Color contrast might be too bold for some casual outfits.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. They are compatible with most casual attire, including jeans, joggers, and shorts. To care for your UB13-S GEL-SD-LYTE trainers, it is recommended to spot clean them using a mild detergent and a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the materials and construction. Allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources. For leather overlays, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly. The mesh upper should be cleaned gently to prevent snagging or tearing.
