FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The ASICS GEL-CITREK™ trainers have running-inspired details and GEL™ cushioning for comfort, making them suitable for casual wear and light jogging. However, they are not designed as specialized performance running shoes for intense training.
What is the main benefit of the GEL™ technology?
The GEL™ technology in the heel is designed to provide excellent shock absorption, reducing impact on your feet and joints during wear.
How do I clean the leather parts of the shoe?
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt from the leather. For more persistent marks, a leather cleaner specifically designed for athletic footwear can be used, followed by a gentle buff.
Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?
While the mesh upper offers some breathability, these trainers are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may saturate the materials.
What is the origin of the GEL-CITREK™ design inspiration?
The design is inspired by ASICS' range of trail shoe styles, combining outdoor-inspired aesthetics with contemporary footwear features.
What materials are used in the ASICS GEL-CITREK™?
The trainers feature a mesh upper with durable, tear-resistant overlays and synthetic leather details. The midsole incorporates GEL™ technology.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure laces are loosened before putting on. If still tight, consider wearing thinner socks or a break-in period. Check if the correct size was purchased.
Discomfort in the heel
Verify that the GEL™ cushioning is intact and not compromised. Ensure socks provide adequate padding. If persistent, consult product support.
Mesh upper appears dirty
Use a soft brush with a mild soap and water solution to gently clean the mesh. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The ASICS GEL-CITREK™ trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.
Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult male use and are compatible with standard sock wear. Their versatility makes them suitable for pairing with casual attire.
Care: To maintain the quality and appearance of your GEL-CITREK™ trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the mesh and leather surfaces with a soft cloth dampened with cool water. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
- Insoles: If removable, clean insoles separately with a damp cloth and allow them to dry completely before reinserting.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
