FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While based on a performance running platform, the Griff edition is primarily designed as a lifestyle trainer.

How do I care for the leather panels?

Wipe with a damp cloth and use a dedicated leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple.

Can I replace the ribbon laces with standard laces?

While physically possible, it may compromise the intended ballet-inspired aesthetic of the collaboration.

What is the primary difference between standard GEL-Cumulus and the Griff edition?

The Griff edition features unique cosmetic additions such as the ribbon lacing system and ruffled tongue.

Do these shoes provide arch support?

Yes, the GEL-CUMULUS architecture provides neutral, balanced support for various foot shapes.

Troubleshooting

Laces feel loose or slip during movement

Ensure the ribbon is pulled taut at every eyelet and consider a double knot if the material is particularly slippery.

Ruffled tongue causes irritation

Smooth out the ruffled material before tightening the laces to ensure it lays flat against your ankle.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High level of underfoot comfort from established GEL technology
  • Unique design language stands out from standard athletic trainers
  • Durable leather and mesh construction
  • Provides a secure, adaptive fit due to the ribbon lacing system

Cons

  • Intricate lacing system takes longer to adjust than traditional laces
  • Ruffled tongue requires careful alignment to avoid discomfort
  • Sleek black aesthetic is prone to showing dust and surface marks

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your ASICS x Griff trainers, follow these guidelines:

  1. Lacing: Take time to thread the ribbon lacing evenly to prevent pressure points across the top of your foot.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt from the mesh panels. Use a slightly damp cloth to wipe down the leather and glossy overlays. Avoid submerging the shoes in water to protect the structural integrity of the GEL units.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the leather and synthetic materials from becoming brittle.
  4. Compatibility: These trainers fit true to size. If you prefer to wear thicker socks, consider testing your fit before long-duration wear.
