FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The ASICS Gel-Respector Trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. While they offer cushioning, they are not intended for high-impact running or athletic training. For running, consider ASICS models specifically engineered for that purpose.

How do I clean the suede upper?

Use a suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, apply a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions. It's best to avoid getting the suede wet and to protect them with a suede protector spray.

What is the main benefit of the EVA midsole?

The EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) midsole provides excellent cushioning and shock absorption, contributing to the overall comfort of the trainers for extended wear.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede trainers in wet weather, as water can stain and damage the material. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally and then use a suede brush.

What does the 'Gel-Respector' name signify?

The 'Gel-Respector' name references ASICS' heritage in running shoe technology, specifically the GEL cushioning system, and the 'Respector' likely refers to the retro design inspiration from past models.

What kind of socks should I wear with these trainers?

You can wear various types of socks. Thinner socks are generally recommended for a snug fit, while thicker socks might provide more warmth and cushioning, potentially altering the fit slightly.

How durable is the rubber outsole?

The rubber outsole is designed for everyday wear and provides good traction. Its durability is suitable for typical walking and casual use, ensuring a reliable grip.

Troubleshooting

Suede looking dull or dirty

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner following the product's instructions. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

Fit feels slightly off

Ensure you have the correct UK size. Consider trying different sock thicknesses. For persistent discomfort, consult the brand's sizing chart or seek professional fitting advice.

Soles showing wear

The rubber outsole is designed for durability. If significant wear is observed, consider reducing the frequency of strenuous use and explore professional shoe repair options for sole restoration if available.

Discoloration due to water exposure

Allow the trainers to air dry naturally away from heat sources. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the texture. Water stains on suede can be difficult to remove completely; protective sprays can help prevent future issues.
