FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
The ASICS GEL-KINETIC FLUENT trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and light training. While they offer good cushioning, they may not provide the specific support and responsiveness required for long-distance running like marathons.
Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the cushioning, adhesives, and material integrity. Hand wash gently following the care instructions provided.
What is the main benefit of the FF BLAST PLUS ECO cushioning?
FF BLAST PLUS ECO cushioning provides a lightweight, soft, and responsive feel, enhancing comfort during daily wear and absorbing impact effectively.
How does the Scutoid GEL Technology work?
Scutoid GEL Technology is a specific 3D structure of GEL that is strategically placed within the midsole to improve shock absorption and provide a softer, smoother ride, particularly during heel strike.
What materials are these trainers made from?
The trainers feature a textile and synthetic upper with a synthetic sole. The upper typically uses breathable mesh with synthetic overlays for support.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. Your heel should feel secure without slipping. Trying them on at the end of the day, when feet are slightly swollen, can provide a more accurate fit.
Are there other color options available?
Availability of colors can vary. Please check the product listing or ASICS official website for the most up-to-date color options.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Consider using thicker or thinner socks depending on the fit.
Slight squeaking sound
This can sometimes occur due to new materials or moisture. Try wearing them for a few more walks to see if it subsides. If persistent, ensure the insoles are properly seated.
Laces come undone frequently
Try a different lacing knot, such as a secure shoelace knot or double knotting. Ensure the laces are not excessively worn.
Discoloration on the material
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions. If discoloration is from dye transfer, it may be permanent.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Suitable for adult wear. Primarily designed for casual use, light jogging, and general fitness activities. Not intended for professional athletic performance.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the mesh and synthetic areas with a slightly damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water to clean the cushioning and rubber sole. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
