Product Information
Full details
The ASICS Gel-Citrek trainers are designed for adult males seeking a durable and comfortable shoe with a modern, trail-inspired aesthetic. Key benefits include GEL™ technology for enhanced cushioning and tear-resistant overlays for longevity. A potential consideration is the textile lining, which may offer less breathability than other materials for intense activities.

FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the GEL™ technology in these trainers?
The GEL™ technology in the heel is designed to provide enhanced shock absorption and cushioning, offering improved comfort during wear.
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
The Gel-Citrek trainers are inspired by trail shoe styles and incorporate performance running details, but they are primarily designed for everyday comfort, walking, and light athletic activities, not for marathon running.
How should I clean the mesh upper?
You can clean the mesh upper by gently wiping it with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using strong cleaning agents.
What are the main materials used in the construction of the Gel-Citrek trainers?
The trainers feature a mesh upper with synthetic leather details, a textile lining and cushioning, and a 100% rubber sole.
Can these trainers be worn by women?
These trainers are specifically marketed towards adult males. While fit can vary, they are designed with male sizing and features in mind.
Do these trainers have a specific break-in period?
Like most new footwear, the Gel-Citrek trainers may benefit from a short break-in period. Wearing them for progressively longer durations can help the materials adapt to your foot's shape.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or too loose.
Adjust the laces using the standard lace-up system to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. Ensure the laces are tied properly.
Discomfort in the heel area.
The GEL™ technology provides cushioning. Ensure the shoe fits correctly. If discomfort persists, consider if the shoe's support matches your individual needs.
Dirt or debris on the upper or sole.
Gently wipe the affected areas with a damp cloth. For the sole, a soft brush can be used to remove stubborn dirt.
Material feels stiff after purchase.
New shoes can sometimes feel stiff. Wear them for short periods initially to allow the materials to break in and conform to your foot.
