FAQs
Are the ASICS Japan S suitable for running?
No, the ASICS Japan S are designed as lifestyle shoes for everyday wear and light activities. They are not built with the specific cushioning and support required for running.
How do I determine the correct UK size?
Please refer to the ASICS sizing chart available on the product page or the official ASICS website. It provides measurements to help you find the most accurate fit.
Can these shoes be worn in wet conditions?
While the materials can tolerate light moisture, they are not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or through puddles, as this can affect the materials and longevity.
What is the primary inspiration for the ASICS Japan S design?
The design is inspired by heritage basketball styles, giving them a classic, retro look.
How should I clean the black and white leather/synthetic upper?
Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For tougher spots, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Always air dry.
Are these shoes available in other colors?
This guide specifically covers the Black/White colourway. Please check other product listings for availability of different colour options.
What type of activities are these shoes best suited for?
They are ideal for casual wear, walking, and very light athletic activities. Their strength lies in daily comfort and versatile style.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight.
Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in. You can also try using thicker socks during the break-in period to gently stretch them.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
Ensure the soles are clean from debris. For persistent issues on very smooth surfaces, consider a shoe sole grip additive, but test in an inconspicuous area first.
Discoloration of the material.
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean immediately if exposed to staining agents using the recommended care instructions.
