Product Information

Full details

The ASICS GEL-Quantum is designed for urban explorers seeking a blend of heritage-inspired style and advanced cushioning. Ideal for daily wear and navigating city environments, its primary benefit is superior shock absorption from Scutoid GEL technology. However, its specialized design for urban landscapes might not suit high-performance athletic activities. It features a layered leather and mesh upper and a grippy rubber outsole, all developed with the Institute of Sport Science.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The ASICS GEL-Quantum is primarily designed for urban exploration and casual wear, focusing on comfort and style for city environments. While they offer excellent cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for high-performance running.

How do I determine my correct size?

We recommend trying on the shoes to ensure the best fit. Generally, ASICS sizing is consistent, but it's always best to measure your foot length and consult the ASICS size chart if you're unsure.

Can I machine wash these shoes?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the shoe. Please refer to the 'Care' section for proper cleaning instructions.

What is Scutoid GEL technology?

Scutoid GEL technology is an advanced cushioning system developed by ASICS, featuring a unique 3D geometry designed to provide superior shock absorption and comfort, especially on hard surfaces.

What kind of socks should I wear with these?

For optimal comfort, we recommend wearing athletic socks that wick moisture away. The thickness of your socks can also affect the fit, so choose accordingly.

Are these shoes suitable for all-weather conditions?

The layered leather and mesh upper provides some protection and breathability. However, they are not fully waterproof. For very wet conditions, consider shoes specifically designed for inclement weather.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable after extended wear

Ensure laces are not overtightened. Check if sock thickness is contributing. Over time, the materials should conform slightly to your foot. If discomfort persists, re-verify your size.

Soles feel slippery on wet surfaces

The grippy rubber outsoles are designed for urban conditions, but extreme wet or icy conditions can still reduce traction. Clean outsoles regularly to prevent dirt buildup from reducing grip. Exercise caution in adverse weather.

Visible dirt and stains on the layered upper

For leather, gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. For mesh, use a soft brush to dislodge dirt, then wipe with a damp cloth. Prompt cleaning helps prevent stains from setting.

Setup The ASICS GEL-Quantum shoes are ready to wear right out of the box. For optimal comfort and fit: 1. Lacing: Loosen laces fully, insert foot, then tighten from the toe upwards to secure a comfortable, snug fit without being too restrictive. 2. Initial Wear: Wear them for short periods initially to allow the materials to conform to your foot shape. ### Compatibility - Sizing: Refer to standard ASICS sizing. This particular model is UK 5.5, for adult females. Ensure you select the correct size for your foot length and width. - Activity: Designed for urban walking, casual wear, and light city exploration. Not intended for high-impact sports or extreme terrains. ### Care To prolong the life and appearance of your ASICS GEL-Quantum shoes: - Cleaning Uppers: Gently wipe leather sections with a damp cloth and mild soap. For mesh areas, use a soft brush to remove dirt, then wipe with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. - Sole Cleaning: Use a brush (like an old toothbrush) to clean dirt and debris from the rubber outsoles. - Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage materials. - Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. - Odour Control: If needed, remove insoles and air them out. You can also use shoe deodorizers.
