FAQs
What is the main benefit of the OrthoLite™ sockliner?
The OrthoLite™ sockliner provides enhanced cushioning for all-day comfort and helps manage moisture to keep your feet dry.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and comfort. They are not specialized running shoes and may not provide the necessary support or cushioning for intense athletic activities.
How should I clean the cream-colored suede?
For suede, use a dry suede brush to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, use a suede-specific cleaner and follow the product's instructions carefully. Avoid water as it can damage suede.
What are the GSM trainers made of?
The Onitsuka Tiger GSM trainers feature a combination of premium suede and mesh on the upper, with a durable rubber outsole and an OrthoLite™ sockliner.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
It is not recommended to wear suede trainers in wet weather, as moisture can damage the suede material and lead to staining or discoloration.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
While this specific model is the 'Cream Green' colorway, Onitsuka Tiger often offers the GSM series in various colors and materials. Please check available product listings for other options.
What does 'GSM' stand for?
The 'GSM' in Onitsuka Tiger's GSM series stands for 'Grape, Stem, and Marrow', referencing the inspiration behind the original design's color palette and silhouette.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained
Use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt. For stains, apply a suede-specific cleaner sparingly with a clean cloth, following the cleaner's instructions. Allow to dry naturally and brush again.
Laces are worn or dirty
Remove laces and hand wash with a mild detergent and warm water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry before re-lacing.
Trainer feels tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size. Wear with appropriate socks. If the issue persists, consider using a shoe stretcher for minor adjustments or breaking them in gradually with short periods of wear.
Poor grip on smooth surfaces
The rubber outsole provides traction, but performance can be affected by wear or surface. Ensure the outsole is clean. For very slick surfaces, exercise caution.
