Product Information
Full details
The ASICS GEL-CITREK™ trainers are designed for adults seeking a versatile sports shoe with a contemporary, trail-inspired aesthetic. The key benefit is the blend of style and comfort, featuring GEL™ technology in the heel for cushioning. A potential consideration is that the materials are primarily 'other materials' for the upper.

FAQs
What is the main inspiration for the GEL-CITREK™ shoe?
The ASICS GEL-CITREK™ shoe is inspired by the brand's range of trail shoe styles, blending that aesthetic with contemporary running details.
What does the GEL™ technology in the heel do?
The GEL™ technology in the heel is designed to provide excellent comfort and shock absorption, cushioning impacts during wear.
What are the primary materials used in the shoe?
The upper is made from 100% other materials, the lining and cushioning are 100% textile, and the sole is 100% rubber.
Are these shoes suitable for serious trail running?
While inspired by trail shoes, the GEL-CITREK™ is best suited for casual wear and light activities rather than extreme trail running due to its versatile design.

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not overtightened. If the fit remains uncomfortable, consider if this is the correct size for your foot.
Discomfort during walking
Ensure the laces are properly adjusted for support. The GEL™ cushioning in the heel provides comfort, but a break-in period may be needed for new shoes.
Dirt or stains on the upper
Gently wipe the 'other materials' upper with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and rinse with a clean damp cloth. Avoid soaking the shoes.
