FAQs

What makes the Kiko Kostadinov collaboration special?

The collaboration blends ASICS's technical footwear innovation with Kiko Kostadinov's avant-garde fashion design, resulting in a unique aesthetic and premium feel.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

While inspired by ASICS's running shoe heritage, the UB9-S Gel DS Trainer 14 is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. For serious running, dedicated ASICS performance running shoes are recommended.

How should I clean the 'Desert Camp Piquant Orange' colorway?

Use a soft brush for dry dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for stains. Avoid soaking or using harsh chemicals. Air dry away from direct heat.

What is the primary material of these trainers?

The product information indicates leather as a material for some variants, suggesting a premium construction. Specific material composition can vary slightly by exact model or production batch.

Can adults with different foot sizes wear these?

This specific listing is for a UK size 9. The ASICS UB9-S Gel DS Trainer 14 is available in a range of adult sizes. Please check available sizes for other specific listings.

What is the main advantage of the GEL cushioning system?

The GEL cushioning system is designed to absorb shock effectively, providing comfort and reducing impact on the joints during walking and everyday activities.

Where can I find other colorways or sizes?

You can typically find other available colorways and sizes by searching for 'ASICS UB9-S Gel DS Trainer 14' and checking different product listings or retailers.

Troubleshooting

Tight fit or discomfort

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. The trainers may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.

Color transfer from secondary orange accents

Be mindful of wearing these with very light-colored socks or clothing, especially when new or if exposed to moisture. Allow time for any excess dye to stabilize.

Squeaking sound during walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction within the shoe. Ensure laces are tied correctly. A small amount of talcum powder in the insole might help if the sound originates from there.

Reduced cushioning over time

While the GEL technology is durable, cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. Consider rotating with other footwear for daily wear.
