FAQs
Are the ASICS GEL-Kinetic 2.0 shoes waterproof?
No, they are made of breathable mesh and synthetic materials designed for airflow, not waterproofing.
Can I replace the insoles with custom orthotics?
Yes, the insoles are removable and accommodate most custom orthotic inserts.
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard adult sizing, but we recommend measuring your feet if you are between sizes.
What is the best way to clean the mesh upper?
Gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth or use a dedicated shoe cleaning solution. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Are these suitable for long-distance marathon running?
While they provide excellent support and cushioning, they are primarily designed as a versatile trainer for everyday activity and moderate exercise.
Troubleshooting
Feeling tightness around the midfoot
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a wider configuration, allowing more room for the foot to expand during activity.
Squeaking sounds during use
Ensure the insoles are properly seated and dry. If the noise persists, check if the outsole tread has accumulated small pebbles or debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your GEL-Kinetic 2.0 trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Fit Check: Ensure the size fits comfortably with a thumb's width of space at the toe.
- Lacing: Use the eyelets to customize your lockdown preference; do not overtighten, as this can restrict circulation.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild detergent. Never submerge the shoes in water or place them in a washing machine.
- Drying: Air dry only. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage the adhesive and material structure.
