FAQs

What makes the Cecilie Bahnsen x Asics Gel-Cumulus 16 unique?

These sneakers are a special collaboration between ASICS and designer Cecilie Bahnsen, blending advanced athletic cushioning technologies with high-fashion elements like delicate floral motifs, NEXKIN upper, and transparent TPU overlays for a distinct aesthetic.

Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?

While they feature ASICS' running technologies like GEL® and FLUIDRIDE, their primary design intent is for fashion-forward casual wear and comfortable daily use, not for high-performance athletic training or competitive running.

How do I choose the correct size?

These sneakers are listed in UK adult men's sizing. It is recommended to consult ASICS' official size chart for accurate conversions if you are unsure or to measure your foot length to ensure the best fit.

Can I machine wash my Cecilie Bahnsen x Asics Gel-Cumulus 16 sneakers?

No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the specialized materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe. Please follow the gentle hand-cleaning instructions provided in the 'Care' section.

What is NEXKIN Upper?

NEXKIN Upper refers to a unique, lightweight, and semi-translucent material used in the shoe's construction. It provides both breathability and a distinct visual texture, enhancing the sneaker's modern and sophisticated aesthetic.

What type of outfits complement these sneakers?

Their blend of sporty and elegant elements makes them highly versatile. They can elevate contemporary streetwear, casual dresses, tailored trousers, and skirts, adding a unique and sophisticated touch to various ensembles.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or too loose.

Adjust the lacing to find your optimal comfort level. Experiment with different lacing techniques to achieve a more personalized fit. Ensure you have the correct size by referring to a standard UK foot size chart.

Noticeable stains on the NEXKIN upper or TPU overlays.

Immediately blot the stain with a clean, damp cloth. For more persistent marks, use a very mild soap solution applied to a soft cloth and gently rub the affected area. Rinse the cloth and wipe away any soap residue. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners.

The cushioning feels less responsive over time.

While ASICS' FLUIDRIDE and GEL® technologies are durable, cushioning can compress with prolonged, heavy use. Ensure regular cleaning and proper storage. Allow the shoes to air out between wears. Note that all footwear cushioning has a finite lifespan.

Fading of the floral pattern or 'Glacier Grey' color.

Minimize prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh cleaning agents, as these can contribute to color fading. Adhere strictly to the recommended gentle cleaning instructions to preserve the aesthetic.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions ### Setup The Cecilie Bahnsen x Asics Gel-Cumulus 16 requires minimal setup. Simply unbox, lace them up to your preferred tightness, and enjoy. Ensure the lacing provides a snug yet comfortable fit to maximize the benefits of the cushioning technologies. ### Compatibility These sneakers are designed for fashion-forward casual wear and light urban activities. They are highly compatible with contemporary streetwear, casual dresses, skirts, tailored trousers, and other elevated fashion pieces. They are not specifically designed for high-performance running or intense athletic training, but rather for comfort and style in daily life. ### Care To ensure the longevity and appearance of your sneakers, follow these care guidelines: 1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the NEXKIN upper, Transparent TPU Overlays, and other surfaces with a soft, damp cloth and a very mild soap solution. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. 2. Drying: Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, which can damage materials. 3. Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures or moisture. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the specialized materials and adhesives.
