FAQs
Are the ASICS EX89 trainers true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing for adult footwear.
Can I use these for playing basketball?
While inspired by basketball heritage, they are designed for casual lifestyle use and do not offer the specialized technical support required for professional court play.
What is the best way to clean white leather?
Wipe them down with a damp cloth and mild soap, then allow them to air dry away from direct sunlight.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The leather upper provides some natural stretch, but the silhouette is standard; we recommend trying your usual size.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are typically removable if you need to insert custom orthotics.
Do these shoes come in other colorways?
The EX89 series is available in various color configurations; this specific model is the white and blue variant.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the toe box
Use shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the shape and minimize deep creasing.
Scuffs on white leather
Use a specialized leather eraser or a small amount of mild soapy water on a clean cloth to gently buff out surface marks.
Shoes feeling stiff
Leather shoes require a short break-in period; wear them for short durations indoors to soften the material naturally.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS EX89 trainers stay in optimal condition, treat the leather with a protective spray before your first wear to repel dirt and moisture. For cleaning, wipe down the white leather surfaces with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid soaking the leather or putting the shoes in a washing machine, as this can degrade the materials. For the blue detailing, use a soft-bristled brush to remove any dust. Always store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from drying out.
