FAQs
What does 'Curation Model by the Kiko Kostadinov Studio' mean?
It signifies a collaboration where the Kiko Kostadinov Studio contributed to the design and aesthetic direction of the shoe, blending their unique style with ASICS' technical expertise.
How do I clean the gradient mesh upper?
Use a damp cloth or a soft brush with mild soap and water. Gently scrub the mesh and synthetic overlays, then rinse with clean water and allow to air dry.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer comfort and cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for the demands of competitive running.
What is the primary inspiration for the design?
The design is inspired by orphic cubism and the concept of simultanism, reflected in the layered, cage-like mesh upper and distinct visual elements.
Can I wear these with athletic socks?
Yes, you can wear them with athletic socks. For the best fit and comfort, consider the thickness of the socks in relation to the shoe size.
What is the purpose of the synthetic tiger stripe overlays?
The tiger stripe overlays are a signature ASICS design element that signals brand heritage and also provides structural support to the upper.
What kind of sole do these trainers have?
They feature a rubber outsole for durability and reliable traction, combined with GEL cushioning in the midsole for shock absorption.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try wearing thinner socks or loosening the laces. If the issue persists, consider if this model's fit is suitable for your foot shape.
Discoloration of mesh
Gently clean the mesh with a mild soap and water solution. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading.
Reduced cushioning over time
The GEL cushioning is designed for durability, but wear and tear are natural. For heavily used shoes, consider replacement if comfort significantly diminishes.
Traction feels slippery on wet surfaces
While the rubber outsole provides grip, extreme wet conditions can reduce traction. Wipe the soles clean before use and exercise caution on very slick surfaces.
