FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Gel-Ventx is designed primarily for lifestyle, walking, and casual wear. It is not recommended for long-distance or high-intensity running.
Is the material waterproof?
The leather upper provides some resistance to water, but the shoes are not waterproof. We recommend applying a leather protectant spray if you live in a rainy climate.
How do I choose the right size?
Asics trainers generally follow standard sizing. If you are between sizes or prefer extra room for thicker socks, consider ordering a half-size up.
Can I remove the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are typically removable, allowing you to use your own custom orthotics if necessary.
Are these trainers machine washable?
No. Machine washing can ruin the leather and compromise the structure of the shoe. Always clean by hand using the methods suggested in the care section.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight during the first few wears
Leather shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations indoors to allow the material to stretch slightly to your foot shape.
Surface scuffs on the leather
Use a leather-safe conditioner or a slightly damp cloth to buff out light scuffs. Avoid abrasive scrub brushes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Asics Gel-Ventx trainers remain in top condition, follow these simple care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents which can damage the leather finish.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or fading.
- Moisture Control: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to help them retain their shape while air-drying away from direct heat sources like radiators.
- Fit: Since these utilize leather, allow a short 'break-in' period for the material to naturally contour to the shape of your feet.
