FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for basketball games?
While the design is inspired by vintage basketball shoes, the Japan S is a lifestyle trainer and does not provide the specialized ankle support or shock absorption required for competitive basketball.
Do these trainers run true to size?
Yes, ASICS Japan S trainers generally fit true to standard adult sizing. If you prefer extra room for thicker socks, consider half a size up.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles in the Japan S models are typically removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The leather construction provides some water resistance against light splashes, but they are not waterproof or intended for heavy rain.
How do I maintain the white exterior?
Wipe them down after every use to prevent dirt from setting into the grain of the leather.
Are these shoes vegan?
These trainers are primarily crafted from leather, so they are not considered a vegan product.
Troubleshooting
Visible scuffs on the leather upper
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft-bristled brush to gently buff out surface scuffs.
Laces coming untied frequently
Ensure the laces are threaded through all eyelets evenly and consider a double-knot for extra security.
Accumulated dirt in the outsole treads
Use a stiff-bristled brush to dislodge pebbles or compacted debris from the grooves of the rubber sole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS Japan S trainers remain in top condition, proper maintenance is essential.
Care Instructions:
- Spot Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove surface dirt.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Submerging these shoes in water or using a washing machine may damage the internal structure or glue bonds.
- Air Drying: Always let your shoes air dry naturally in a cool, shaded area. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause the material to crack or fade.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup inside the lining.
