FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The Gel-Quantum Kinetic trainers are designed primarily for urban exploration and everyday comfort. While they incorporate running-inspired technology, they are not specialized for high-impact running activities.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The trainers should feel snug but not tight. There should be a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. Ensure your heel does not slip excessively when walking.

What is Scutoid Gel Technology?

Scutoid Gel Technology is an advanced cushioning system developed by ASICS. It features a unique 3D geometry and off-axis structure designed to improve shock absorption and provide a more comfortable experience during daily activities.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and the structural integrity of the trainers. Hand clean them using the methods described in the care section.

What is the main benefit of the layered upper?

The layered construction, combining synthetic leathers and mesh panels, enhances breathability, improves overall comfort, and contributes to the trainer's modern, technical aesthetic.

Are these trainers unisex?

While this specific product listing is for a unisex model, ASICS often releases specific gendered versions. Always check the product details to confirm.

How often should I clean my trainers?

Clean your trainers as needed, particularly after exposure to dirt or significant wear. Regular spot cleaning can help maintain their appearance and longevity.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound from shoes

This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers. Ensure the shoes are completely dry. If the issue persists, try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole.

Discomfort during initial wear

New trainers, especially those with advanced cushioning, may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.

Reduced cushioning over time

The gel cushioning is designed for durability, but performance can be affected by heavy use or prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures. Ensure proper care and avoid excessive stress.

Material scuffs or marks

Minor scuffs on synthetic leather can sometimes be buffed out with a soft cloth. For mesh, use a gentle cleaning method as described in the care instructions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and performance.

Compatibility: The Gel-Quantum Kinetic is designed for general adult use. They are compatible with a wide range of casual attire, including jeans, joggers, and shorts. They are not intended for specialized athletic activities.

Care: To maintain the condition of your trainers:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe synthetic leather and mesh areas with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove dirt and debris. For stubborn marks, a mild soap and water solution can be used carefully.
  3. Drying: Allow trainers 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.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box to protect them from dust and prolonged sunlight.
