Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

The GEL-Kinetic Fluent sneakers are designed with advanced cushioning for comfort and impact absorption during training and daily wear. They are not specialized for marathon running, which typically requires specific support and features found in dedicated running shoes.

How do I determine the correct size?

The product uses standard UK men's adult foot sizing. It is recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to the brand's sizing chart or try them on if possible to ensure a proper fit.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the cushioning technology, leather overlays, and overall structure of the shoe. Hand washing with a damp cloth is the preferred method for cleaning.

What is the benefit of FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO cushioning?

FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO cushioning provides a soft, lightweight, and responsive feel underfoot. It enhances comfort by absorbing impact and returning energy, contributing to a more comfortable wearing experience.

What is scutoid GEL® technology?

Scutoid GEL® technology is an evolution of ASICS' GEL technology, engineered in a 3D shape to provide even more effective shock absorption. It's strategically placed to improve comfort and reduce impact, especially during heel strike.

How durable is the rubber outsole?

The rubber outsole is designed for durability and provides reliable traction on various surfaces. Its composition aims to withstand regular wear and tear associated with training and daily activities.

What materials are used in the upper construction?

The upper is constructed with a breathable mesh material combined with durable leather overlays. This combination offers both ventilation and structural support.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If the tightness persists, consider if the size is correct or if the laces need adjustment. The materials may also require a brief break-in period.

Reduced cushioning effect over time

Cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. Ensure the shoes are not being used for activities exceeding their intended purpose (e.g., high-impact sports). Follow care instructions to maintain material integrity.

Slipping on certain surfaces

The rubber outsole is designed for traction, but performance can vary on extremely wet or polished surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris. For challenging conditions, consider specialized footwear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup. They are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult males. The sizing is based on standard UK men's foot sizes. They are designed for general training, walking, and casual wear.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and grime from the mesh and leather surfaces. For stubborn stains on leather, a mild leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: A damp cloth or a soft brush can be used to clean the midsole and rubber outsole. Ensure no debris is left in the treads.
  3. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve material integrity and color.
