FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Lyte Classic is designed primarily as a lifestyle trainer for casual wear and walking; it does not provide the technical stability needed for long-distance running.
Do these fit true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard sizing; however, since suede can be rigid, some users prefer a half-size up if they have wider feet.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can permanently damage the suede material and compromise the integrity of the adhesive.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the internal footbed is removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if needed.
Is this a unisex model?
Yes, the Lyte Classic is designed to be a unisex shoe, making it suitable for both men and women.
What is the best way to protect the suede?
We recommend applying a suede-safe water and stain repellent spray before the first wear to create a protective barrier.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty
Use a dry suede brush in a circular motion to lift the nap and remove surface debris.
Footbed feels less cushioned over time
Replace the removable sockliner with a high-quality aftermarket insole for renewed support.
Stains on suede material
Apply a gentle, dedicated suede cleaning foam and allow to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the ASICS Lyte Classic features a premium suede upper, proper care is essential to extend the life of the shoe. Avoid exposing the trainers to heavy rain or spills, as moisture can stain or stiffen the material. To clean, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and a dedicated suede eraser for surface marks. When storing your shoes, keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the silver coloring over time. Ensure the laces are adjusted to your personal comfort level during your first wear to ensure a secure fit for your specific foot shape.
