FAQs

What is the main inspiration behind the US7-S GEL-KINETIC FLUENT™ design?

The design is inspired by the STREAL 361 soccer spike and the concept of insulated grottos, with influences from visual artist Edith Dekynd, blending technical welding and unique mesh patterns.

What type of cushioning technology is used?

These trainers feature ASICS' GEL-Scutoid Technology for shock absorption and FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO Cushioning for a lightweight and responsive feel, made with sustainable materials.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

While they offer excellent cushioning for everyday comfort and light activity, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers. For dedicated running, ASICS offers specialized running shoe models.

How should I clean the unique mesh upper?

The technical mesh upper should be cleaned gently with a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing to preserve the material and design integrity.

What does 'ECO' in FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO Cushioning signify?

The 'ECO' indicates that the cushioning material is made using sustainable manufacturing methods and recycled components, contributing to a reduced environmental impact.

What is the purpose of the synthetic overlays?

The synthetic overlays provide additional structure, support, and durability to the upper, reinforcing key areas of the shoe where stress is often applied.

What is the best way to dry these trainers after cleaning?

Always air dry the trainers naturally at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can degrade the materials.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels slightly off initially

The technical materials may require a brief break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure you've selected the correct UK size according to the ASICS sizing chart.

Mesh upper appears dirty

Gently clean with a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth. For stubborn spots, use a very mild soap diluted in water and dab carefully. Always air dry.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

Ensure the shoes are not being used for excessively strenuous activities beyond their intended design. Regular cleaning of the outsole can also help maintain optimal grip and performance.

Care:
