ASICS Gel-Venture 6 - Black - UK 12

While trail-inspired in their design, the GEL-VENTURE 6 are specifically re-engineered for street and urban use. They offer excellent comfort and grip for daily walks, light park strolls, and casual activities, but are not recommended for rugged or technical trail running.

These trainers are equipped with ASICS' responsive GEL cushioning technology in the midsole. This provides supreme comfort, excellent shock absorption, and helps reduce impact during walking and daily wear.

To clean, gently wipe the textile and synthetic upper with a soft, damp cloth. A small amount of mild soap can be used for stubborn dirt. Avoid machine washing, harsh chemicals, or direct heat when drying. Always air dry completely.

ASICS generally provides consistent sizing. For this specific model, it is a UK 12. Most users find ASICS trainers to be true to size, but individual foot shape can vary. It's always best to try them on if possible or refer to ASICS' official size guide.

The textile and synthetic upper offers some resistance to light moisture, but these trainers are not waterproof. For heavy rain or very wet conditions, your feet may get damp. Prolonged exposure to wetness can also affect the material over time.

The upper is crafted from a combination of breathable mesh and durable synthetic overlays. The sole features a responsive GEL cushioned midsole for comfort and a tough rubber outsole for grip and durability.

Ensure you have selected the correct size (UK 12 for this model) and that your laces are tied appropriately – not too loose, not too tight. The padded ankle collar should provide comfort; if rubbing persists, consider trying different socks.

While the tough rubber outsole provides good grip, no shoe is entirely slip-proof on all wet surfaces. Always exercise caution. Check the outsole tread for wear or embedded debris, which can reduce traction. Clean the tread if necessary.

Regularly clean the textile and synthetic upper as per the care instructions (damp cloth, mild soap). For odour, ensure shoes are fully air-dried between uses. Removable insoles can be washed separately, or you can use shoe deodorizers.

The synthetic overlays add durability to the mesh. While designed for robust use, excessive friction or sharp impacts can cause wear. Inspect for specific points of damage and consider if the shoes are being used for activities beyond their intended 'street-ready' purpose.
