FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for road running?
While the GEL cushioning provides comfort, these trainers are primarily designed for trail and outdoor use due to their durable outsole pattern optimized for varied terrains. They can be used for occasional road running but may wear faster than dedicated road shoes.
How do I determine the correct size?
It is recommended to check the ASICS sizing chart available on their official website and measure your foot length. Many users find that Asian-made shoes often run a half-size smaller, so consider ordering a half-size up if you are between sizes or prefer more room.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the GEL cushioning, waterproof membrane, and structural integrity of the shoe. Hand-wash gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.
What is the warranty period for these shoes?
ASICS typically offers a limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Please refer to the specific warranty information provided at the time of purchase or on the ASICS official website for details.
How long do the waterproof properties last?
The waterproof membrane is designed to last for the typical lifespan of the shoe under normal use. However, prolonged exposure to extreme conditions, abrasive cleaning, or damage to the shoe material can affect its waterproof effectiveness over time.
Can I wear these with regular socks?
You can wear them with regular socks, but for optimal comfort, especially when dealing with moisture or during longer activities, moisture-wicking synthetic or wool socks are recommended to help keep your feet dry and prevent blisters.
Troubleshooting
Water seeping into the shoe
Ensure the waterproof upper is intact and free from rips or tears. Clean any mud or debris from the seams and lacing area, as this can affect the waterproof seal. If the issue persists, the waterproof membrane may be compromised.
Traction is poor on certain surfaces
Check the outsole for wear and tear. Clean the outsole thoroughly to remove any embedded dirt or debris that may be reducing grip. For very slick surfaces, slower speeds and careful footing may still be necessary.
Discomfort or rubbing after initial wear
These trainers may require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase duration. Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly for a secure but not overly tight fit. Consider wearing moisture-wicking socks.
Shoes feel too warm during hot weather
The waterproof membrane, while beneficial in wet conditions, can reduce breathability. Opt for moisture-wicking socks and consider these shoes for cooler or wet weather conditions to maximize comfort.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: To clean, use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris from the upper and outsole. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
