FAQs
Are ASICS Gel-Quantum Kinetic Trainers suitable for intense running?
While these trainers draw inspiration from ASICS' running franchises and offer excellent shock absorption, they are optimized for urban exploration, daily commutes, and long periods of standing. For intense athletic running, we recommend ASICS' specialized performance running shoes.
How do I clean the synthetic leather and mesh upper?
Gently wipe the upper with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid scrubbing aggressively or using harsh chemicals. Do not machine wash or submerge the trainers in water.
What is Scutoid GEL Technology?
Scutoid GEL Technology is a unique cushioning system featuring a closely packed 3D geometry and off-axis structure. It's engineered to provide exceptional shock absorption, particularly beneficial for impact reduction during urban activities and prolonged standing.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The synthetic leather and mesh materials offer some resistance to light moisture, but these trainers are not fully waterproof. It's best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions to maintain their integrity.
Do these trainers fit true to size?
ASICS footwear generally fits true to size for adults. We recommend selecting your usual UK shoe size for the best possible fit. If unsure, you may wish to consult a size guide.
What materials are the trainers made from?
The upper is constructed from a combination of synthetic leathers and mesh panels for comfort and breathability. The sole is made of durable rubber for traction and longevity.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or loose
Adjust the lace-up fastening. Loosen laces if too tight, ensuring even tension across the foot. Tighten laces if too loose, making sure they are secure without causing pressure points.
Feet feel hot or sweaty after extended wear
While the trainers have mesh for breathability, consider wearing moisture-wicking socks. Also, ensure the laces aren't overly tight, which can restrict airflow. Allow trainers to air out thoroughly between uses.
Sole feels less grippy or slippery
Clean the rubber sole thoroughly to remove any accumulated dirt, mud, or debris that might be reducing traction. Use a brush and water if necessary. Avoid walking on excessively oily or slick surfaces.
Unpleasant odor developing in trainers
Remove insoles and air dry them separately after each use. You can also sprinkle baking soda inside the trainers overnight to absorb odors, then shake it out. Ensure trainers are completely dry before storage.

Care
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your trainers. Always `follow care instructions` specific to the materials:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe synthetic leather and mesh panels with a soft, damp cloth using a small amount of mild soap (e.g., dish soap diluted in water). Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning the Sole: Use a brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and debris from the rubber sole.
- Drying: Air dry your trainers at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources like radiators. Never machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage materials and adhesives.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. If trainers become wet, allow them to fully air dry before storing.
- Insoles: Removable insoles can be taken out and air-dried separately to prevent odors.
