FAQs
Is the ASICS Gel-1090 suitable for running?
While it draws from running shoe heritage, it is best suited for lifestyle, walking, and casual wear rather than long-distance technical running.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
The Gel-1090 fits standard UK sizing. We recommend leaving a thumb's width of space at the front of the shoe to ensure comfort during activity.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the internal liners are generally removable if you need to insert custom orthotics or replace them with fresh insoles.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, these trainers are made of breathable materials and are not water-resistant or waterproof.
What is the best way to keep them clean?
Regularly wipe the soles with a damp cloth and use a soft-bristled brush to remove any loose dirt from the fabric portions.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt or scuffs on the white material
Use a damp microfiber cloth with a small amount of gentle shoe cleaner to lightly wipe the surface, then air dry.
Feeling of slipping or instability
Ensure the laces are tightened appropriately to secure the heel, and check that the outsole is free of mud or debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The ASICS Gel-1090 comes ready to wear straight out of the box with standard lacing that can be adjusted to your preferred tension. For optimal compatibility, ensure you have measured your feet accurately to select the correct UK sizing, as proper fit is essential for the GEL technology to function as intended. To care for your trainers, avoid machine washing; instead, spot-clean them with a soft cloth, mild soap, and water to preserve the integrity of the materials. Allow them to air-dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the cushioning components over time.
