FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While they feature performance technology like FF BLAST PLUS, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers. They are best suited for walking, light athletic activities, and daily wear.

How do I determine my size?

The ASICS GEL-Kinetic 2.0 uses standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to choose your usual athletic shoe size.

Can I use custom insoles in these shoes?

Yes, the provided insoles can generally be removed to accommodate custom orthotics if required.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the mesh upper is designed for breathability and is not waterproof or water-resistant.

What is the best way to store them?

Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the synthetic materials and foam from degrading over time.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt buildup in the mesh material

Use a dry, soft brush to gently dislodge particles before spot-cleaning with mild soapy water.

Feeling of decreased cushioning over time

Ensure the shoes are given time to 'recover' between wears, as the foam cells need to decompress after impact.

Foot slippage inside the shoe

Check that the TRUSSTIC cage is not obstructed and re-tighten the laces starting from the bottom eyelets for a more secure lockdown.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile design suitable for both casual and performance wear
  • Excellent energy return from the FF BLAST PLUS midsole
  • Sophisticated aesthetic blending retro style with modern tech
  • Stable construction provided by the TRUSSTIC cage

Cons

  • Requires regular cleaning to keep mesh and overlays looking new
  • Specific silhouette might not suit those looking for minimalist trainers
  • Not intended for specialized professional competitive sports

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal fit, ensure the laces are adjusted to provide a snug, supportive feel without restricting circulation across the top of the foot. These trainers are unisex in design, though sizing is standardized to UK measurements. To care for your trainers, avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the synthetic adhesives and mesh integrity. Instead, gently clean the surface with a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap mixed with cool water, wipe with a soft cloth, and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping.
