FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the Gel-Transcend Fj offers great support and cushioning, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers rather than dedicated high-mileage performance running shoes.
How do I choose the right size?
These trainers follow standard adult sizing. It is recommended to choose your typical sneaker size, ensuring there is a thumb-width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.
Can the insoles be replaced?
Yes, the insoles are removable, making them compatible with most third-party or custom orthopedic inserts.
What is the best way to clean the suede/leather components?
Use a specific suede brush for the suede sections and a gentle leather cleaner for any leather components to avoid discoloration.
Is this a unisex model?
Yes, the model is designed to be versatile and is categorized as a unisex trainer suitable for various foot shapes.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of stiffness in the midsole
Wear the shoes for short periods throughout the day to allow the materials to flex and contour to your foot shape naturally.
Laces coming undone during activity
Use a double knot or consider using a 'heel lock' lacing technique to increase lockdown and reduce lace movement.
Interior accumulating dust or debris
Remove the insole periodically and shake out the shoe, then wipe the interior with a dry microfiber cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Asics Gel-Transcend Fj trainers, keep them away from extreme heat sources like radiators, which can warp the cushioning materials. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for localized stains; do not machine wash or submerge the shoes. We recommend using a dedicated shoe deodorizer spray if the interior retains moisture after a long day of use. If you use custom orthotics, the factory insoles are generally removable, allowing you to maintain your preferred arch support without compromising the trainer's structural fit.
