FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
The ASICS Gel-Quantum Lyte II trainers are designed for comfort and everyday wear, with GEL technology for cushioning. For marathon running, specialized running shoes offering advanced support and specific cushioning for high mileage are generally recommended.
How do I clean the knitted upper?
Gently wipe the knitted upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, and allow them to air dry naturally.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, especially with the knitted upper and GEL technology. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method for cleaning.
What is the main benefit of the GEL technology in these shoes?
The GEL technology in the midsole significantly improves shock absorption, providing a softer feel when walking and reducing the impact on your feet and joints.
What type of activities are these trainers best for?
These trainers are best suited for everyday wear, walking, light training, and casual activities where comfort and cushioning are prioritized.
How durable is the knitted upper?
The knitted upper offers comfort and breathability but is generally less durable than synthetic leather or mesh in very demanding environments. For general daily use, it provides adequate durability.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or cause discomfort
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Try wearing them with different types of socks. The knitted upper may loosen slightly with wear, but significant discomfort might indicate an incorrect fit.
Traction is poor on wet surfaces
The outsole is designed for general use and may have reduced grip on very wet or slippery surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions. Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris.
Knitted upper appears to be stretching excessively
The knitted upper is designed to be flexible. If it feels like it's losing its shape or support, ensure the laces are tied correctly to provide adequate hold. Excessive stretching might occur over time with very heavy use.
