Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?

While they feature advanced cushioning, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers rather than for high-mileage competitive running.

What materials are used in the upper?

The upper incorporates molded overlays and high-quality polyester components for durability and fit.

Do the GEL pods require maintenance?

No, they are sealed units; simply keep them clean of debris to ensure consistent performance.

How should I clean the polyester upper?

Gently spot clean with mild detergent and a damp cloth; avoid abrasive scrubbing which can fray the fabric.

Is the size range unisex?

Yes, many variants are listed as unisex, covering a wide range of standard adult UK sizes.

What is the benefit of the TRUSSTIC cage?

The TRUSSTIC cage acts as a bridge under the midfoot to improve structural integrity and stability, preventing the shoe from twisting excessively during movement.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the upper material

Use a shoe tree when not wearing to help the material retain its shape and smooth out minor wrinkles.

Debris stuck in the GEL pods

Use a soft-bristled brush or a can of compressed air to gently dislodge any small stones or grit from the recessed areas of the outsole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Asics Gel-Kinetic 2.0 trainers, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and debris from the outsole and mesh areas. For deeper cleaning, wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid soaking the shoe or using a washing machine, as this can damage the structural adhesives.
  2. Drying: Always air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the foam to warp or the materials to degrade.
  3. Fit: These trainers are available in a variety of sizes; ensure you have adequate room in the toe box for natural foot swelling that occurs throughout the day.
  4. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the GEL pods and the polyester upper materials.
