FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the EX89 is designed for lifestyle and casual wear, not for high-intensity running or athletic sports.
How do I clean the white leather?
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. Use leather-safe cleaners for stubborn stains.
Is the sizing true to fit?
The EX89 generally fits true to size for UK standard measurements, though leather can feel snug initially.
Can I use these in rainy weather?
While leather offers some protection, it is best to avoid heavy rain as prolonged exposure can damage the material.
What is the primary material?
The EX89 is constructed using premium leather for the upper, ensuring durability and style.
Troubleshooting
Visible scuffs on the white leather
Use a specialized leather eraser or a small amount of mild soap and a soft cloth to gently buff out the scuff mark.
Material feels stiff after purchase
Leather requires a break-in period. Wear the shoes for short intervals at home to soften the upper material naturally.
Laces becoming loose during wear
Double-knot the laces or ensure they are properly tensioned throughout the eyelets to maintain a secure fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS EX89 trainers stay in top condition, follow these recommendations:
- Setup: As with any leather shoe, consider wearing them for shorter periods during the first week to allow the material to adapt to your foot shape.
- Compatibility: These shoes are highly compatible with casual denim, chinos, or athletic joggers, making them a staple for smart-casual wardrobes.
- Care: Wipe the leather surface regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemicals that could damage the leather finish.
