Product Information
Full details
The Asics UB13-S GEL-SD-LYTE trainers are designed for adults seeking a blend of avant-garde style and athletic performance. Their key benefit lies in their unique, cage-like construction and abstract design, offering a standout aesthetic. A potential consideration is that the mesh upper, while stylish, may require more careful maintenance than traditional materials. This model features a mesh upper with leather overlays, GEL™ Technology cushioning for comfort, and a durable rubber outsole, inspired by the concept of simultanism with contrasting color palettes.

FAQs
What is the primary inspiration behind the UB13-S GEL-SD-LYTE design?
The design is inspired by the art concept of 'simultanism,' featuring contrasting color applications and abstract, cage-like structures on the upper.
Are these trainers suitable for running or intense sports?
No, these trainers are designed primarily for style and everyday comfort. They feature GEL™ cushioning for walking and casual use, but are not intended for high-impact athletic activities.
How do I clean the mesh and leather parts of the shoe?
Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For the mesh, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by rinsing with a damp cloth. Leather parts can be conditioned periodically.
What material is the upper primarily made of?
The upper is constructed with a combination of breathable mesh and supportive leather overlays.
What does GEL™ Technology offer?
GEL™ Technology is integrated into the midsole to provide excellent shock absorption and cushioning, enhancing comfort during wear.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the rubber outsole provides some grip, the mesh upper is not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials.
How does the colour contrast work on the shoe?
Neutral base colors are complemented by contrasting tones, particularly visible on the cage-like construction of the upper, creating a dynamic visual effect.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the lacing system to find a more comfortable fit. Consult the Asics sizing chart for accurate measurements if the fit remains an issue.
Mesh upper appears dirty or stained.
Spot clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse with a clean damp cloth and allow to air dry. For tough stains, professional shoe cleaning may be considered.
Reduced cushioning after extended use.
The GEL™ cushioning is designed for long-term wear. If you notice a significant decrease in comfort, ensure the shoes are not overly worn. Consider replacing them if they have exceeded their typical lifespan.
Rubber outsole showing signs of wear.
Normal wear and tear is expected with regular use. If significant degradation or separation occurs, it may indicate the shoes have reached the end of their functional life.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently clean the mesh and leather areas with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh brushes or abrasive cleaners that could damage the materials. For stubborn dirt on the mesh, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
- Leather Overlays: Condition the leather overlays periodically with a suitable leather conditioner to maintain their suppleness and prevent drying.
- Midsole and Outsole: Wipe the rubber outsole and midsole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Ensure they are dry before storage.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can degrade the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box to protect them from dust and damage.
