FAQs
Are the ASICS EX89 good for basketball?
While they are inspired by basketball history, these are lifestyle trainers designed for casual everyday wear, not competitive court performance.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is crafted from durable leather.
How should I clean the white leather?
Use a damp, soft cloth with a mild cleaner specifically formulated for leather. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally fit standard adult sizing. It is recommended to choose your usual sneaker size.
Can I wear these in the rain?
The leather upper provides some protection, but the shoes are not waterproof. Wipe them down immediately if they get wet to prevent water spots.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the toe box
This is a natural occurrence with leather shoes. Using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain the shoe's shape and minimize deep creases.
Dirt buildup on white leather
Gently clean with a leather-safe wipe or a soft cloth dampened with diluted mild soap, ensuring you wipe away any excess moisture immediately.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS EX89 trainers stay in top condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. Use a mild leather cleaner if necessary, avoiding harsh chemicals.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature. Never place them near direct heat sources like radiators, as this can crack or warp the leather.
- Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the white leather from yellowing.
- Compatibility: These trainers fit true to size for most adults. If you prefer a looser feel, consider testing with your preferred thickness of sock to ensure optimal comfort.
