FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for professional running?

While they offer excellent cushioning and support, the GEL-Kinetic Fluent trainers are primarily designed for style and light athletic activities. For professional or intense running, consider ASICS models specifically engineered for performance running.

What does the 'GEL-Scutoid' technology do?

GEL-Scutoid technology is an advancement in ASICS' GEL cushioning system. It uses a 3D geometric shape to improve shock absorption and provide a smoother transition from impact to toe-off.

Are these shoes truly unisex?

The product information indicates a unisex option is available, though this specific guide focuses on the men's variant. Unisex sizing typically aligns with men's sizing, but it's always best to check the specific size chart.

How is the FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO cushioning eco-friendly?

This cushioning system is made partially from recycled materials, reducing waste and promoting sustainability in the manufacturing process.

Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?

The rubber outsole provides good traction, but the mesh upper is not waterproof. They are suitable for light rain, but not for prolonged exposure to heavy wet conditions.

What inspired the design?

The design is inspired by the STREAL 361 soccer spike and the concept of insulated grottos, with visual influences from artist Edith Dekynd, blending contemporary materials and textures.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to the ASICS sizing chart, which usually provides measurements in UK, EU, and US sizes, as well as foot length in centimeters, to help you find the perfect fit.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or too loose.

Adjust the lacing system to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks for the best feel.

Discomfort during wear.

Break in the shoes gradually with short periods of wear. Ensure the size is correct for your foot; consult the sizing chart if unsure.

Squeaking sound from the sole.

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. It may resolve with continued wear. Ensure the outsole is clean and dry.

Fading of color over time.

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause colors to fade. Store shoes in a cool, dry place when not in use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers are ready to wear right out of the box. Compatibility is broad, suitable for various casual and light athletic settings. To care for your GEL-Kinetic Fluent trainers, avoid machine washing. Clean the mesh and synthetic upper gently with a slightly damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn dirt, use a soft brush. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources. Do not use harsh chemicals or solvents, as they can damage the materials and affect the cushioning technology.
