FAQs

Are these trainers truly unisex?

While the product description mentions 'unisex sneaker' in some contexts, the provided specific variant is listed as 'Male'. However, the design and sizing principles often allow for unisex wear depending on individual fit preference. Please check the size chart carefully.

What makes the Scutoid GEL midsole special?

The Scutoid GEL cushioning system is uniquely shaped to enhance shock absorption and provide a stable, soft landing. It's designed to work with the FF BLAST PLUS technology for improved comfort and responsiveness.

How do the recycled materials impact performance?

The FF Blast™ Plus ECO technology uses recycled materials to reduce the shoe's overall weight. This contributes to enhanced dynamic movement and agility without compromising on cushioning or support.

Can I use these for running marathons?

These trainers are designed for everyday use and light workouts. While they offer excellent cushioning, they may not provide the specialized support and structure required for long-distance or high-intensity marathon running.

What is the inspiration behind the design?

The design is a collaboration with Kiko Kostadinov Studio, drawing inspiration from archival ASICS models, the concept of insulated grottos, and the STREAL 361 soccer spike, blended with contemporary materials and artistic influences.

How should I clean the mesh parts of the upper?

Use a soft, damp cloth and gently wipe the mesh. For tougher spots, a very mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Always air dry.

What is the difference between this and other ASICS trainers?

The GEL-Kinetic Fluent line stands out due to its unique design collaboration with Kiko Kostadinov Studio, advanced FF BLAST PLUS & Scutoid GEL cushioning, and distinctive aesthetic influenced by art and retro sports spikes, differentiating it from more traditional ASICS running or training models.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff initially

The FF BLAST PLUS & Scutoid GEL cushioning may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time as they conform to your foot.

Laces come undone frequently

Ensure you are tying a secure double knot. Consider replacing the laces with a pair that has better grip if this remains an issue.

Slight squeaking noise

This can sometimes occur with new cushioning systems. It often resolves on its own with continued wear. If persistent, check for any debris trapped within the sole.

Discoloration of materials

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean using only recommended methods with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional cushioning for comfort and support.
  • Stylish, distinctive design collaboration.
  • Lightweight and breathable for active use.
  • Utilizes recycled materials for sustainability.
  • Durable construction for longevity.

Cons

  • The unique cushioning system may require a brief break-in period.
  • May not be suitable for highly specialized athletic training requiring specific support.
  • The aesthetic might be too avant-garde for some users.
  • Lace fastening might not offer the same level of micro-adjustability as other closure systems.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These trainers require no specific setup beyond lacing them to your preferred fit. Ensure the laces are adjusted evenly across the eyelets for optimal comfort and support.

Compatibility:

Designed as unisex trainers, they are compatible with a wide range of casual and athleisure wear. They are best suited for adult users.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt and debris from the synthetic and mesh materials. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Cleaning the Midsole/Sole: For the rubber sole and midsole, a brush or damp cloth can be used. Ensure no debris is trapped in the sole's treads.
  • Drying: Allow the shoes 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.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain color and material integrity. Consider using shoe trees to help them retain their shape.
