FAQs

What inspired the design of the GEL-NUNOBIKI trainers?

The design is inspired by the tranquil Nunobiki trail in Kobe, Japan, known for its waterfalls. It also references design elements from the ASICS GEL-KAHANA 3 and GEL-TARGET models, creating a blend of trail heritage and modern urban style.

Are these shoes suitable for serious hiking or trail running?

The GEL-NUNOBIKI trainers are designed for urban exploration and light trail use. While they offer good grip and comfort, they are not intended for rugged terrain or high-intensity trail running.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer or ASICS. These trainers are available in various UK adult foot sizes. Ensure you measure your foot accurately for the best fit.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, GEL cushioning, and structural integrity of the trainers. Hand wash gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.

What is the primary benefit of the GEL technology in these shoes?

The GEL technology in the heel is designed to absorb shock during impact, providing enhanced cushioning and a more comfortable feel, especially during extended periods of walking or standing.

What are the main materials used in the upper?

The upper is constructed with a breathable mesh base, complemented by matte and semi-gloss synthetic overlays for support and a distinct textured appearance.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

The product information specifies a White colourway with Silver and Light Blue accents. Availability of other colours may vary by retailer and season.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure laces are properly adjusted for a snug but not overly tight fit. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for shorter periods initially. Check for any internal stitching or material defects.

Tread not providing expected grip

Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris, mud, or excessive wear. The trail-specific tread is optimized for certain surfaces; performance may vary on extremely smooth or wet polished surfaces.

Materials appear dirty quickly

This is common for white footwear. Regular gentle cleaning with a damp cloth will help maintain their appearance. Consider using a protective spray designed for trainers, following product instructions.

  • Comfortable fit with a secure lace-up system.

Cons

  • Trail-specific tread may be less optimal for purely indoor or smooth-surface use.
  • Primarily designed for light outdoor adventures, not extreme terrain.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The ASICS GEL-NUNOBIKI trainers require no specific setup. Simply untie the laces, insert your foot, and retie them for a secure fit. Adjust the lacing to your comfort preference.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for unisex adult use and are compatible with a wide range of casual and athletic wear. They are suitable for everyday walking, light hiking, and urban exploration.

Care: To maintain the condition of your trainers:

  • Cleaning: Gently clean the mesh and synthetic upper with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap and water solution.
  • Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat or sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid crushing or deforming the shoes.
