FAQs

Are these sneakers suitable for running?

While inspired by track spikes, these are lifestyle trainers and are not recommended for high-intensity athletic training or long-distance running.

How should I clean the leather exterior?

Use a damp, soft cloth with mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals and never put leather trainers in a washing machine.

What is the function of the TRUSSTIC unit?

The TRUSSTIC unit is a support bridge that provides midfoot stability, preventing the shoe from twisting and ensuring a more stable stride.

Does the leather material stretch over time?

Leather naturally softens and molds to the shape of your foot with regular wear, which may result in a slightly more relaxed fit over time.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, you can remove the existing sock liner to insert your own custom orthotics or replacement insoles if needed.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the leather upper

This is a natural occurrence in leather footwear; use shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the shape.

Feeling of tightness in the midfoot

Adjust the laces using the 3-point fit structure; ensure the eyelets are not pulled too tightly to allow for natural foot expansion.

Reduced cushioning feel

Check the interior sock liner for debris or compression; replacing the liner with an aftermarket insole can refresh the underfoot feel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your ASICS GEL-DS Trainer SP sneakers, follow these care and setup guidelines:

  1. Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, the leather upper will mold better to your foot shape after a few days of consistent wear.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to brush off loose dirt. For leather care, use a dedicated leather cleaner or a damp cloth with mild soap, avoiding complete submersion in water.
  3. Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the leather to crack or fade over time.
  4. Insoles: The interior is designed to support the 3-point fit; ensure the sock liner is kept flat and clean to maintain internal comfort.
