FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While they feature performance technology, the 12.1 is primarily styled as a lifestyle trainer for casual use.
How should I clean the white mesh?
Spot clean with mild soap and a damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoe in water.
What is the primary material used for the upper?
The upper is constructed from breathable mesh with Smoke Grey synthetic overlays.
Does the shoe provide arch support?
Yes, the internal architecture and FluidRide structure are designed to provide consistent support for the foot.
Can I replace the insoles?
The insoles are removable, allowing for the use of custom orthotics if required.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the synthetic overlays
Use a shoe tree when not in use to maintain the structural shape of the upper.
Discolouration on white mesh
Gently clean using a mild soap solution and a soft cloth; do not machine wash.
Reduced traction on slippery surfaces
Check the rubber outsole for debris; if the tread is clogged, use a damp cloth to clear the grooves.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Asics trainers remain in optimal condition, verify the sizing against your typical Asics fit as the 12.1 series maintains a consistent athletic profile. To care for the shoes, avoid submerging them in water or using harsh industrial detergents. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt from the synthetic overlays and a damp cloth to spot-clean the white mesh areas. Allow the trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent the synthetic materials from warping or degrading.
