FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for serious trail running?

The ASICS Gel-Venture 6 is designed for light outdoor trails and urban environments, offering reliable traction and shock absorption. For serious, rugged trail running in extreme conditions, you may want to consider models specifically built for such demanding activities.

How do I clean my Gel-Venture 6 Trainers?

Wipe the synthetic leather sections with a damp cloth and mild soap. For other textile areas, use a soft brush and gentle cleaner. Always allow them to air dry completely. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying as this can damage the shoes.

What does GEL™ technology do?

GEL™ technology in the rearfoot provides advanced shock absorption, cushioning impact during your stride. This helps to reduce stress on your joints and enhances overall comfort during various activities.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

While they feature a trail-specific traction pattern for various surfaces, these trainers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain or standing water is not recommended for maintaining the shoe's integrity and your foot's comfort.

Are these shoes true to size?

ASICS sizing is generally consistent, but fit can vary slightly by individual foot shape. This particular pair is a UK size 4. We recommend checking the ASICS size guide for detailed measurements and trying them on to ensure the best fit.

What materials are used in the upper?

The upper features synthetic leather inserts which provide targeted support and contribute to the modern aesthetic. Info needed: exact percentage/composition of other upper materials.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Ensure you have the correct size (this pair is UK 4). Try adjusting the lacing to achieve a snug but comfortable fit. Consider trying different types of socks for a better fit or if wearing thicker socks usually, try thinner ones.

Lack of grip on certain surfaces

While designed for varied surfaces, extreme wet, icy, or highly technical terrain may reduce grip. Ensure the outsole is clean and free of mud or debris. These shoes are not recommended for highly slippery or extremely challenging technical terrain.

Foot discomfort or rubbing

Ensure laces are tied correctly – not too tight to restrict blood flow, nor too loose to cause excess movement. Wear appropriate socks designed for athletic use. Allow a short break-in period for new shoes. If discomfort persists, consult a foot specialist.

Shoes develop an odour

Remove insoles and air them out regularly after use. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb moisture and odours. Ensure shoes are completely dry before storing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care### SetupSimply unbox your ASICS Gel-Venture 6 Trainers and they are ready to wear. Ensure you select the correct UK size for optimal comfort and support.

Cleaning: For synthetic leather inserts, gently wipe with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. For other textile areas, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt, followed by a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.2. Drying: Always allow your trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources such as radiators, heaters, or in direct sunlight, as this can cause materials to crack or warp.3. Storage: When not in use, store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.4. Odour Control: To manage odours, remove the insoles periodically and air them out. Shoe deodorizers or a sprinkle of baking soda inside the shoes can also be effective overnight.5. Avoid Machine Washing: Do not wash your trainers in a washing machine or put them in a tumble dryer, as this can severely damage the shoe's construction, bonding, and materials.
