Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing system to find a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size according to ASICS sizing guidelines. If the issue persists, consider trying a different size or width if available.
Reduced cushioning over time
The cushioning properties of foam and GEL can degrade with extensive use. For optimal performance, consider replacing the shoes after a significant mileage or if you notice a substantial decrease in comfort and support.
Suede material getting dirty
Use a specialized suede brush to gently clean the affected areas. For tougher stains, a suede cleaner or a slightly damp cloth can be used sparingly, followed by brushing to restore texture.
Mesh upper shows signs of wear
Regularly clean the mesh with a soft brush and water. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals that could damage the fine weave of the mesh.
