FAQs

What is GEL technology and how does it benefit me?

GEL technology is an advanced cushioning system typically placed in the midsole of ASICS shoes. It's designed to absorb shock during impact and toe-off phases, allowing for smoother movement and reducing stress on your feet and joints. This results in enhanced comfort, especially during extended wear.

Are these shoes suitable for serious athletic training or running?

While featuring ASICS' athletic technology like GEL and FLUIDRIDE, these shoes are primarily designed as a fashion-forward piece offering excellent comfort for everyday wear and light activities. For specialized, high-intensity athletic training or competitive running, consult performance-specific ASICS models.

How do I maintain the unique floral pattern and transparent materials?

To preserve the delicate prints and material integrity, gently wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth and a mild detergent. Avoid machine washing, harsh scrubbing, or chemical cleaners, as these can damage the transparent overlays and cause the floral patterns to fade.

Is the sizing standard for ASICS shoes, or should I adjust?

Generally, ASICS sizing is consistent across models. However, due to the unique construction and materials of collaborative editions, it's always recommended to consult the official ASICS size guide or, if possible, try them on to ensure the best fit for your foot shape.

What makes the Cecilie Bahnsen x ASICS collaboration special?

This collaboration uniquely merges ASICS' performance heritage with Cecilie Bahnsen's signature romantic and avant-garde aesthetic. It transforms a classic running shoe into a high-fashion statement piece by incorporating delicate floral patterns, transparent overlays, and a distinctive cord lacing system with a flower-shaped toggle, balancing athletic function with refined elegance.

Are these shoes durable for everyday use?

Yes, constructed from high-quality synthetic materials, the Cecilie Bahnsen x ASICS Gel-Cumulus 16 is built for lightweight durability. With proper care and maintenance, these shoes will provide lasting comfort and maintain their unique aesthetic through regular everyday use.

Troubleshooting

Lacing feels loose or difficult to adjust with the toggle.

Ensure the cord lacing is pulled taut evenly through all loops, and the flower-shaped toggle is securely fastened. Practice adjusting the tension to find your preferred fit; sometimes a firm pull is needed to lock the toggle in place.

Discomfort or rubbing during initial wear.

Allow for a brief break-in period, as new shoes can sometimes feel stiff. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If discomfort persists, verify shoe size against the ASICS sizing chart, as an improper fit can cause issues.

Floral pattern or transparent overlays appear dull or dirty.

Gently clean the upper with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap (e.g., dish soap diluted with water). Avoid abrasive materials, harsh chemicals, or vigorous scrubbing which could damage the unique finishes and prints.

Squeaking sound when walking.

This can sometimes occur from friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, cleaning the area underneath, and ensuring it's completely dry before reinserting. A sprinkle of baby powder or cornstarch under the insole can also help reduce friction.
