FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The ASICS Novalis Gel-Teremoa trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and fashion wear. While they feature cushioning, they are not optimized for high-impact athletic activities like running.
How do I know if my UK size 8.5 will fit correctly?
Refer to ASICS' official size chart for measurements. Ensure your foot length and width align with the specifications for a UK size 8.5. Trying them on is the most reliable method if possible.
What is the significance of the 'Novalis' and 'Gel-Teremoa' in the name?
'Novalis' refers to a specific ASICS line that often emphasizes innovative design, while 'Gel-Teremoa' highlights the use of ASICS' signature GEL cushioning technology.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
These trainers are not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended to protect the materials and ensure longevity.
What makes the Kiko Kostadinov collaboration special?
The collaboration with Kiko Kostadinov brings a unique, avant-garde design sensibility to ASICS' performance-focused footwear, resulting in distinct silhouettes and colorways.
How should I store these trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using the original box or a shoe bag can help protect them from dust and preserve their shape.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The product description indicates materials like Zinc, suggesting a blend of synthetic and potentially metal-infused components for the upper, contributing to its unique texture and appearance.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel uncomfortable or unevenly tightened
Re-lace the shoes, ensuring an even tension across all eyelets. Experiment with different lacing techniques if needed.
Slight stiffness during initial wear
Wear the trainers for short periods initially, gradually increasing duration to allow the materials to conform to your foot shape.
Surface marks or light dirt on the upper
Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe the affected areas. For tougher spots, a small amount of mild shoe cleaner can be applied with a soft brush or cloth, followed by a wipe with a clean damp cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers require no assembly. Upon receiving, ensure they fit comfortably. Adjust the laces for a personalized, secure fit.
Compatibility: Designed for adult male feet (UK size 8.5). These are primarily fashion trainers and are best suited for casual wear, complementing streetwear and athleisure styles.
Care: To maintain the appearance and integrity of your ASICS Novalis Gel-Teremoa trainers:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive materials. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by a damp cloth wipe-down.
