FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for basketball?
While inspired by basketball aesthetics, these are categorized as lifestyle trainers and are intended for casual, everyday wear rather than intense court performance.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
The ASICS EX89 generally fits true to size. We recommend ordering your standard UK shoe size.
Are the materials breathable?
The leather upper provides durability and some natural breathability, though it is not as ventilated as mesh-based running shoes.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesives used in the construction. Stick to manual surface cleaning.
What should I do if they get wet?
Remove any excess water with a cloth and let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the leather upper
Use wooden shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to maintain their shape and minimize natural creasing.
Stubborn scuffs on white leather
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft eraser to gently buff out surface marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS EX89 trainers stay in optimal condition, treat the leather upper with a protective spray before the first wear to repel dirt and moisture. Compatibility-wise, these trainers feature a standard fit, making them suitable for most adult foot shapes. For cleaning, wipe down the leather surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh industrial chemicals. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the white leather from yellowing or drying out over time.
