FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the GEL technology in these trainers?
The Scutoid GEL technology is strategically placed to increase impact absorption, providing advanced comfort and a smoother feel with every step.
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
The Gel-Kinetic Fluent trainers are designed for everyday comfort and light training. For marathon running, specialized performance running shoes are recommended.
How do I know if I've chosen the right size?
Your toes should have about a thumb's width of space between the end of your longest toe and the front of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping, and there should be no pinching or excessive tightness across the width of your foot.
What does 'FF BLAST PLUS ECO' cushioning mean?
FF BLAST PLUS ECO is a lightweight, responsive foam cushioning that provides excellent energy return and comfort, made with sustainable materials.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning technology. Hand-wash with a damp cloth and mild soap for best results.
What is the inspiration behind the design?
The design takes inspiration from archived ASICS running shoes, reimagining heritage influences with modern technologies and materials.
How durable are the Gel-Kinetic Fluent trainers?
Constructed with contemporary materials and ASICS' renowned build quality, these trainers are designed for durable, long-lasting wear for their intended use.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or uncomfortable
Wear the shoes with appropriate socks for a few days to allow the materials to mold to your feet. If discomfort persists, ensure you have the correct size and consider trying a different lacing pattern.
Squeaking noise during walking
This can sometimes occur due to friction between the sole and the insole. Try removing the insole, checking for debris, and reinserting it firmly. A light powder under the insole might also help.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
The cushioning may naturally decrease with extensive use. Ensure the shoes are not exposed to extreme temperatures, which can degrade cushioning materials. For prolonged use, consider replacement.
