Product Information
Full details
The ASICS EX89 Sneaker is designed for adult males seeking all-day comfort and lightweight shock absorption. Inspired by the 1989 GEL-EXTREME sneaker, its key benefit lies in the overlapping leather layers that provide a cushioned feel. A potential caveat is that the sizing may run specific to UK standards, so verifying measurements is advised.

FAQs
Are these sneakers suitable for running?
The ASICS EX89 Sneaker is designed primarily for casual wear and all-day comfort. While they offer shock absorption, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact running and may lack the necessary support and cushioning for intense athletic training.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
The product information specifies UK adult sizing. It is highly recommended to measure your foot and compare it against the ASICS official sizing guide to find the best fit, especially if you are accustomed to different sizing systems (e.g., US, EU).
Can I wash these sneakers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended. The leather material can be damaged by the harsh agitation and water. Hand-wash using a damp cloth and appropriate leather care products only.
What is the main inspiration behind the EX89 model?
The ASICS EX89 Sneaker is inspired by the design and features of the 1989 GEL-EXTREME sneaker, bringing a retro aesthetic to modern footwear.
How often should I condition the leather?
Conditioning frequency depends on usage and environment. Generally, conditioning every 3-6 months, or after deep cleaning, is sufficient to maintain the leather's health and flexibility.
Are there other color options available?
The ASICS EX89 series may be available in various colorways. Please refer to the specific product listings or the brand's official website for the full range of available colors and sizes.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels incorrect
Consult the ASICS sizing chart to ensure accurate conversion from your usual shoe size to UK sizing. Check if the specific model's fit differs from expectations.
Leather appears dry or stiff
Apply a dedicated leather conditioner following the product instructions. Allow it to absorb fully before wearing.
Creases forming on the leather
This is a natural occurrence with leather wear. Using shoe trees when not in use can help minimize crease severity.
Discoloration from water exposure
Attempt to clean gently with a damp cloth. For significant staining, consult a professional shoe cleaner specializing in leather.
