FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the shoe utilizes technology derived from running and track spikes, it is designed for lifestyle use and casual walking, not for distance running or professional athletic competition.

How should I clean the mesh components?

Gently scrub the mesh with a soft brush and a mild detergent solution, then allow them to air dry away from direct sunlight.

Does the sizing run true to size?

The GEL-DS Trainer SP features a structured, performance-oriented fit. If you prefer a wider feel, you may consider a half-size increase, though most find their standard UK size appropriate.

What is the function of the TRUSSTIC unit?

The TRUSSTIC unit is a stable bridge located under the arch of the shoe that provides structural integrity and prevents the shoe from twisting during movement.

Are the materials durable for daily wear?

Yes, the combination of synthetic mesh and leather overlays is designed to provide long-lasting support and durability for everyday urban environments.

Troubleshooting

The shoe feels too tight across the midfoot.

Loosen the laces significantly before putting them on, then re-adjust tension starting from the bottom eyelets to accommodate the 3-point fit structure.

Material scuffing on the leather overlays.

Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft eraser for light scuffs, being careful not to rub the mesh areas.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your ASICS trainers maintain their look and performance, follow these guidelines:

  1. Break-in Period: Because of the 3-point fit structure, wear the shoes for short durations during the first week to allow the materials to contour to your foot shape.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt from the mesh panels. For the leather overlays, wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid soaking the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to prevent the synthetic materials and GEL units from degrading.
  4. Compatibility: These are unisex-inspired designs. Always refer to your specific UK size for the best fit, as the structured upper may feel more snug than standard running trainers.
