FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the Gel-Transcend line offers excellent cushioning, they are primarily designed for daily wear and moderate activity rather than high-performance long-distance running.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No, it is highly recommended to clean these trainers by hand to preserve the integrity of the materials and the cushioning technology.
Is the sizing true to standard UK sizes?
Yes, these follow standard adult UK sizing, though users who prefer a wider fit might consider checking the specific width profile of their chosen size.
What is the primary material used in the upper?
The variant options include both high-quality leather and synthetic components depending on the specific sub-model selected.
How often should I replace these trainers?
For regular daily use, most footwear of this type begins to lose its maximum support qualities after 300 to 500 miles of walking.
Does the Gel technology require any maintenance?
No, the internal Gel cushioning is sealed within the midsole and does not require any user maintenance.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
Loosen the laces fully and re-tie them while wearing your intended socks to allow the upper materials to adjust to your foot shape.
Visible surface marks
Use a soft-bristled brush or a damp (not soaking) cloth to gently wipe away debris from the outer materials.
Insole sliding during wear
Ensure the insole is seated correctly in the heel cup; if the problem persists, ensure the interior of the shoe is completely dry of moisture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Asics Gel-Transcend trainers last, begin by ensuring you have the correct size; they are designed for an adult fit, so it is recommended to wear the socks you intend to use with the shoes during your initial fitting. Compatibility with orthotic insoles is generally good, but always remove the factory-installed liner first. For maintenance, keep the leather or synthetic upper clean by wiping away dust with a dry cloth. If the shoes become damp, air-dry them away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent material warping or adhesive breakdown.
