FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

The ASICS Gel-Quantum Lyte II are designed for comfort and cushioning during everyday activities and light training. For marathon running, it is recommended to use specialized running shoes that offer more targeted support and performance features.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Your toes should have about a thumb's width of space between the end of the shoe and your longest toe. The heel should feel secure without slipping, and the shoe should feel comfortable across the width of your foot.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the GEL technology, the knitted upper, and the overall structure of the shoe. Hand wash using a damp cloth and mild soap.

What is the main advantage of GEL technology?

GEL technology in the midsole is designed to absorb shock efficiently, providing enhanced cushioning and a softer feel underfoot, which helps reduce impact during walking and standing.

Are these trainers waterproof?

The knitted upper is breathable and comfortable but not waterproof. They are suitable for dry conditions and light moisture, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain may result in wet feet.

What kind of socks should I wear with these trainers?

You can wear them with your preferred type of socks, but athletic or moisture-wicking socks are generally recommended for comfort and to help manage sweat during wear.

Troubleshooting

Foot discomfort after wearing

Ensure you have the correct size and width. Break in the shoes gradually with shorter periods of wear.

Traction seems reduced

Clean the outsole thoroughly to remove any embedded dirt or debris. Ensure the surface you are walking on is dry.

Upper material feels loose

Check the lacing system and adjust for a more secure fit. The knitted upper is designed to be flexible, but ensure it's not overly stretched.
