FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, the Japan S is a lifestyle sneaker inspired by retro court models and is not designed for running or high-intensity sports.

How should I clean the multicolor upper?

Use a soft brush to gently remove dry dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for localized spots. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Yes, ASICS Japan S generally fits true to size for most adults, though personal preference for width may vary.

Can I replace the insoles?

The insoles are generally removable, allowing you to swap them for your own custom orthotics if needed.

Are they waterproof?

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the toe box

Use a shoe tree when not in use to maintain the shape of the upper and minimize deep creases.

Surface dirt accumulation

Use a specialized sneaker cleaner for leather or synthetic materials to gently lift grime without damaging the surface finish.

Laces coming undone

Ensure a double knot or use a runner's loop if the laces feel too slick for standard tying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Cleaning: Wipe away loose dirt or debris with a soft-bristled brush or a slightly damp cloth after each wear.
  2. Stain Removal: For spot cleaning, use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth, then air dry away from direct heat sources.
  3. Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent material degradation or color fading.
  4. Maintenance: To keep the interior fresh, remove the sockliner occasionally to allow for ventilation and air out the shoes.
