FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

While they feature advanced cushioning, the ASICS Kiko Kostadinov Gel-Kinetic Fluent trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle wear, walking, and light training. They are not intended for high-performance running.

How do I know if I have the right size?

It is recommended to measure your foot and compare it with the ASICS sizing chart. Consider trying them on if possible, as the fit can vary. Given the collaboration, checking reviews for specific fit advice can also be helpful.

What does 'Scutoid GEL' technology mean?

Scutoid GEL is an advanced cushioning system developed by ASICS. Its unique shape is engineered to improve shock absorption and provide a softer, more stable feel underfoot.

Are these trainers unisex?

The product description mentions the 'Kiko Kostadinov x Asics Us7-S Gel-Kinetic Fluent "Beniimo Purple" is a unisex sneaker'. However, specific sizing and colorways may be marketed towards a particular gender. It's best to check the individual product listing for confirmation.

What is the benefit of FF BLAST PLUS ECO cushioning?

FF BLAST PLUS ECO cushioning provides lightweight, responsive cushioning that enhances comfort and dynamic movement. The 'ECO' designation indicates it is made with recycled materials, contributing to sustainability.

Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and a soft brush is the safest method to preserve the materials and structure.

What is the primary inspiration for this design?

The silhouette is inspired by the STREAL 361 soccer spike and the concept of insulated grottos, with upper details influenced by visual artist Edith Dekynd.

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing thicker socks. Break in the shoes gradually with shorter wears.

Traction feels slippery

Clean the rubber sole to remove any accumulated dirt or debris. Ensure the surface you are walking on is not excessively wet or smooth.

Materials appear dirty or stained

Follow the recommended cleaning instructions using a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. For stubborn stains on mesh, a soft brush might help. Always test cleaning methods on an inconspicuous area first.
