FAQs

Are the ASICS GEL-1090v2 trainers suitable for running?

While they offer comfort and cushioning, the GEL-1090v2 is primarily designed as a fashion sneaker. For serious running, ASICS recommends specific running shoe models engineered for performance and impact.

What is the main difference between the GEL-1090 and GEL-1090v2?

The GEL-1090v2 is a re-engineered version of the original GEL-1090, featuring updated materials like suede overlays and heel loops for a more modern aesthetic, while retaining the core GEL cushioning technology.

How do I determine the correct UK size?

It is recommended to consult the ASICS sizing chart available on their official website or the retailer's product page. Measuring your foot length and comparing it to the chart is the most accurate method.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

The trainers have some breathability, but they are not waterproof. While light moisture may be tolerated, they are not ideal for heavy rain or wet conditions, and prolonged exposure could damage the materials.

What is the return policy if the shoes do not fit?

Return policies vary by retailer. Please check the specific retailer's return policy for information on exchanges or returns for sizing issues.

How do I clean the leather and mesh parts of the shoe?

For leather, use a damp cloth and mild soap if needed, then dry. For mesh, gently use a soft brush with water and mild detergent. Allow to air dry naturally.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Refer to the ASICS sizing guide. Break-in the shoes by wearing them for short periods initially, gradually increasing wear time.

Squeaking noise when walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction between components. Try inserting a thin insole or dusting the inside with talcum powder. Ensure the laces are not overtightened.

De-lamination of sole or overlays

Cease use immediately. This may indicate a manufacturing defect. Contact customer support for assistance. Avoid exposing the shoes to extreme heat, which can weaken adhesives.

Compatibility:

The GEL-1090v2 trainers are designed for general adult use and are compatible with a wide range of casual attire. They are not specifically designed for technical athletic performance in specialized sports.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For leather parts, use a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, then wipe dry. For mesh areas, gently scrub with a soft brush and a solution of water and mild detergent. Avoid excessive water.
  • Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Wipe with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a small amount of mild soap and a soft brush.
  • Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not use a machine dryer.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box to maintain shape and protect from dust.
