FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The Gel-Kinetic Fluent trainers are best suited for casual wear, walking, and lighter training. For marathon running, ASICS recommends specific long-distance running shoe models that offer more specialized support and cushioning for endurance.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the ASICS sizing guide available online or in-store. It typically involves measuring your foot length and comparing it to the provided size chart. Ensure you measure both feet, as they can differ slightly.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash ASICS Gel-Kinetic Fluent trainers. Machine washing can damage the adhesives, cushioning materials, and upper construction. Hand wash using a mild soap and water as per the care instructions.

What is the main benefit of the GEL technology in these shoes?

The GEL technology in the ASICS Gel-Kinetic Fluent is designed to provide excellent shock absorption. It helps to cushion your foot upon impact, reducing stress on your joints and providing a more comfortable experience, especially during walking or standing for long periods.

Do these trainers offer good arch support?

The Gel-Kinetic Fluent trainers offer moderate arch support integrated within their design and cushioning system. For individuals requiring significant or specialized arch support, an insole or orthotic might be considered.

What does 'FF BLAST PLUS ECO' cushioning mean?

FF BLAST PLUS ECO is a proprietary ASICS foam cushioning. It is known for being lightweight, soft, and providing good energy return. The 'ECO' designation indicates that it is made with a certain percentage of recycled materials, contributing to sustainability.

Troubleshooting

Slightly tight fit on first wear

Wear the trainers for short periods initially to allow them to mold to your feet. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in period if needed.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

Ensure the midsole and GEL components are clean. While durable, extreme use can eventually affect cushioning; consider replacement if performance significantly degrades.

Slipping in wet conditions

The outsole provides general traction but may be less effective on very wet or slick surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Pros and Cons

  • Durable construction for everyday use.
  • Lightweight feel without compromising support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The Gel-Kinetic Fluent trainers are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size for optimal comfort and performance.

Compatibility: These trainers are suitable for general athletic activities, walking, and casual wear. They are not specifically designed for specialized sports requiring advanced support (e.g., basketball, trail running).

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap with water and a damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
