FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The GEL-KINETIC FLUENT trainers are designed for everyday comfort and light activities. For marathon running, it is recommended to use specialized ASICS running shoes that offer advanced support and cushioning for high-mileage training.

What is the primary benefit of the Scutoid GEL technology?

Scutoid GEL technology is designed to provide enhanced shock absorption and create a smoother transition from impact to toe-off, improving overall comfort and reducing stress on the joints.

How should I clean the trainers if they get muddy?

Remove excess mud with a dry brush. Then, use a damp cloth to wipe down the mesh and synthetic upper. For the sole, a mild soap solution and a damp cloth can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Always air dry.

Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?

No, it is not recommended to put these trainers in a washing machine. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning technologies. Hand cleaning is the preferred method.

What does 'FF BLAST PLUS ECO' cushioning mean?

FF BLAST PLUS ECO is a lightweight, responsive foam cushioning designed to provide a soft landing and an energetic rebound. The 'ECO' designation indicates that it is made with more sustainable materials.

Are these trainers unisex?

The product information specifies these trainers are for women. While the style may appeal broadly, they are designed and sized for the female foot.

What is the main difference between this and other ASICS trainers?

The GEL-KINETIC FLUENT series often emphasizes a blend of retro-inspired aesthetics with modern cushioning technologies like FF BLAST PLUS ECO and specific GEL placements, making it a strong choice for casual wear and light training rather than high-performance running.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing them with different types of socks. The materials may require a short break-in period.

Slipping on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole provides traction, but performance may be reduced on extremely wet or slick surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Laces become dirty

Remove laces and hand wash with mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing.

Mesh upper shows signs of wear

Clean gently with a damp cloth. Avoid snagging the mesh on sharp objects.
