FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The ASICS GEL-DS TRAINER 14 is primarily designed as a lightweight lifestyle trainer for everyday comfort and style. While they offer cushioning, they may not provide the specialized support or durability required for dedicated running.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping.
Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the materials, cushioning, and structural integrity of the shoe. Hand wash gently with a damp cloth and mild soap.
What is the TRUSSTIC support system?
The TRUSSTIC system is a component located in the midfoot that provides stability and helps control torsional rigidity, enhancing support during movement.
How should I store my trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally on a shoe rack or in their original box, away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures to maintain their shape and material condition.
What is the main benefit of the GEL pod cushioning?
The GEL pod cushioning in the rear and forefoot is designed to absorb shock effectively, providing a comfortable and cushioned feel during walking and standing.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you are wearing the correct size and appropriate socks. The mesh upper will offer some flexibility over time with wear.
Reduced cushioning effect
The GEL cushioning is designed for durability, but its effectiveness may diminish with extensive wear. Consider cleaning to remove debris that might affect cushioning perception.
Mesh upper appears dirty
Follow the recommended cleaning instructions using a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn marks, a soft brush can be used gently.
