FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, the Japan S is a lifestyle trainer inspired by heritage court shoes and does not have the technical cushioning required for running.

How do I ensure I have the right size?

ASICS sizes are standard, but if you are between sizes, we recommend opting for your usual casual trainer size for the best fit.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

We strongly advise against machine washing as it can damage the adhesive and upper materials of the trainer.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is crafted from durable materials chosen for a balance of aesthetics and daily comfort.

Are these shoes water-resistant?

While they can handle light walking in dry conditions, they are not waterproof and should not be worn in heavy rain.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the toe box

This is common with synthetic and leather-based lifestyle shoes; use shoe trees when not wearing them to help maintain the original shape.

Difficulty keeping the white exterior clean

Apply a water and stain repellent spray suitable for lifestyle sneakers immediately after purchase to create a protective barrier.

Laces coming undone frequently

Double knot the laces or replace them with higher-friction cotton laces if the original pair is too slick.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

When you first receive your ASICS Japan S trainers, ensure they are laced comfortably to suit your foot volume. For ongoing care, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the upper. If the white material begins to show stains, wipe gently with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the materials and structural integrity of the shoe. Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent yellowing of the white components.
