FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The ASICS US7-S Gel-Kinetic Fluent trainers are designed primarily for everyday wear and casual use, featuring advanced cushioning. For dedicated high-performance running, ASICS recommends specific running shoe models.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The shoe should feel snug but not tight, with no heel slippage.

What is the 'Cayenne' hue?

The 'Cayenne' hue refers to a vibrant, energetic shade of deep red used in the design of the shoe, adding a bold visual element.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, cushioning, and structural integrity of the trainers.

What does GEL-Scutoid Technology do?

GEL-Scutoid Technology is an ASICS cushioning system designed to provide enhanced shock absorption and improved comfort by dispersing impact forces.

How does the FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO Cushioning differ?

FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO Cushioning provides a lightweight, energetic rebound and a soft landing, contributing to overall comfort and responsiveness during wear.

Where can I find other colorways or sizes?

You can explore other available colorways and sizes through the ASICS website or authorized retailers. Refer to the `variant_siblings` in the product data for examples.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure you have the correct size and fit. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods initially. Check for any internal seams or tags that might be causing irritation.

Reduced cushioning effectiveness over time

While designed for durability, cushioning can degrade with extensive use. Proper care and avoiding overuse in extreme conditions can help prolong their effectiveness. Consider rotating with other footwear.

Difficulty cleaning specific materials

For the mesh and synthetic overlays, use a soft brush with a mild soap and water solution. Gently scrub and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Always test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup beyond wearing them. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult wear. These trainers are designed for casual and everyday use. They are compatible with a wide range of casual outfits.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the upper and midsole. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the materials and colors. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape.
