FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the design is inspired by athletic spikes, these are categorized as lifestyle trainers and are best suited for walking and casual activities rather than distance running.
How should I clean the exterior of my trainers?
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
Does the shoe provide good arch support?
Yes, the integration of Trusstic stability technology provides solid midfoot support for most standard foot shapes.
What is the three-point fit structure?
It is a specialized lacing and structural design that anchors the heel and midfoot more securely than standard trainer designs.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to swap them for custom orthotics if required.
Are these shoes true to size?
The ASICS Gel-DS Trainer SP generally fits true to size for standard UK sizing; however, individual fit preference may vary based on sock thickness.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel too tight or loose over the midfoot
Utilize the three-point fit structure by adjusting the lace tension specifically at the midfoot eyelets to redistribute pressure.
Surface dirt accumulation on the upper
Use a dry, soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust, followed by a lightly dampened cloth if necessary.
Insole slippage during use
Remove the insole, clean the interior cavity of the shoe, ensure the base is dry, and re-insert the insole firmly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the most out of your ASICS Gel-DS Trainer SP requires minimal setup beyond adjusting the included lacing options. Since the shoes arrive with two sets of laces, experiment with both to find the look that best fits your daily wardrobe. To ensure longevity, keep the shoes away from extreme moisture and heat sources that could degrade the synthetic materials or the GEL cushioning unit. To clean, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for surface marks; avoid submerging them in water or using a washing machine, as this can damage the structural adhesives.
