FAQs
How do I ensure I get the right size?
It's recommended to measure your foot and compare it to ASICS' official sizing chart. Be aware that the box or label might display US or Euro sizes, which can differ from UK sizes. Trying them on before purchase is the most reliable method.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the cushioning, adhesives, and materials. Hand wash using a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, and allow to air dry.
What is the 'kei' in GEL-QUANTUM KEI?
'Kei' is a Japanese word that means 'lightness'. The shoe is designed to embody this concept, offering a lightweight and comfortable experience to help maintain harmony between mind and body.
Are these suitable for long-distance running?
While they offer excellent cushioning for everyday comfort, the GEL-QUANTUM KEI are primarily designed for daily wear, sports, and leisure. For dedicated long-distance running, ASICS offers specialized running shoe models with features optimized for that activity.
How does the GEL technology work?
ASICS' GEL technology is a silicone-based cushioning system designed to absorb shock effectively. It's strategically placed in the midsole to provide enhanced comfort and reduce impact during movement.
What kind of surfaces are the non-slip treads effective on?
The non-slip tread pattern is designed to provide stability and traction on a variety of common surfaces encountered during sports and daily activities, including pavement, gym floors, and moderate trails.
Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort after wearing
Ensure the laces are tied correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit. Verify you have the correct size; consult the sizing chart and consider trying them on before purchase if possible, noting potential international size differences on the box.
Slipping on smooth surfaces
Check the outsole for any embedded debris. While designed for traction, performance may vary on extremely polished or wet surfaces. Ensure the shoes are not worn out; consider replacement if the tread is significantly diminished.
Material scuffing or damage
Avoid abrasive contact. For minor scuffs on synthetic materials, a damp cloth may help. For more significant damage, professional repair might be necessary, but generally, these are signs of heavy wear.
