FAQs
What is the primary inspiration behind the US7-S GEL-KINETIC FLUENT™ design?
The design is inspired by the STREAL 361 soccer spike and the concept of insulated grottos, with visual influences from artist Edith Dekynd, blending technical elements with contemporary materials.
Are these trainers suitable for running or intense athletic training?
These trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. While they feature advanced cushioning, they are not optimized for high-impact athletic activities like running or cross-training.
How should I clean the synthetic overlays on the trainers?
Synthetic overlays can be cleaned with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild soap solution with a soft cloth and wipe clean. Ensure the area is dried thoroughly afterwards.
What does 'GEL-Scutoid Technology' offer?
GEL-Scutoid Technology is an ASICS cushioning system engineered to provide improved shock absorption and comfort by creating a more efficient impact dispersal, particularly in heel-strike scenarios.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather conditions?
The mesh upper offers some breathability but is not waterproof. While the rubber outsole provides grip, prolonged exposure to wet conditions is not recommended for maintaining the material integrity and comfort.
What is the benefit of FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO Cushioning?
FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO Cushioning provides a soft, lightweight, and responsive feel underfoot, enhancing comfort for daily wear. The 'ECO' designation indicates it's made with more sustainable materials.
How do I know if I have the right size?
The trainers should feel snug but not tight, with enough room in the toe box for natural foot movement. Your heel should not slip excessively. Trying them on at the end of the day, when feet are slightly larger, can help ensure a proper fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try wearing them with different types of socks. If the issue persists after a break-in period, they may not be the right fit for your foot shape.
Mesh upper appears dirty.
Gently clean the mesh with a soft brush and mild soap diluted in water. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry. Avoid machine washing.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness.
The cushioning technology is designed for longevity, but significant reduction might indicate prolonged heavy use or material degradation. Ensure the shoes are used appropriately for lifestyle wear.
Squeaking noise when walking.
This can sometimes happen due to moisture between layers or rubbing. Ensure the shoes are completely dry. If the noise persists, a small amount of talcum powder inside the shoe may help.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to gently clean the mesh and synthetic overlays. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Inspecting the Outsole: Regularly check the rubber outsole for debris or excessive wear. Clean with a damp cloth if necessary.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
