FAQs

Are the ASICS GEL-KAYANO 20 suitable for people with flat feet?

The GEL-KAYANO series is generally known for its stability features, including the GUIDANCE TRUSSTIC system, which can be beneficial for individuals with flat feet or mild to moderate overpronation. However, it's always recommended to consult with a footwear specialist for personalized advice.

How do I clean my GEL-KAYANO 20 trainers?

Clean the exterior using a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap. Remove excess dirt from the sole and upper. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.

What is the main difference between the GEL-KAYANO series and other ASICS trainers?

The GEL-KAYANO series is ASICS' flagship stability shoe, designed to provide maximum support and cushioning for overpronators and runners who need enhanced guidance. Other ASICS lines may focus more on neutral cushioning, lightweight design, or speed.

Can I use these trainers for marathon running?

Yes, the GEL-KAYANO 20 trainers are built for long-distance comfort and support, making them suitable for marathon training and racing for runners who benefit from stability features.

What does 'FLUIDFIT' mean in the context of these shoes?

FLUIDFIT refers to ASICS' technology that combines multi-directional stretch mesh with stretchy synthetic materials. This creates a glove-like fit that adapts to the wearer's foot, providing a personalized and secure feel.

How long can I expect the cushioning to last?

The lifespan of the cushioning depends on factors like frequency of use, running surface, and individual biomechanics. For regular runners, the advanced cushioning systems are typically designed to provide effective support for several hundred miles before significant compression occurs.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the ASICS GEL-KAYANO 20 trainers are not waterproof. They are designed with breathable materials for ventilation, which means they will not keep your feet dry in wet conditions.

Troubleshooting

Uncomfortable fit or pressure points

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try wearing them with the intended type of socks. Some users may need a short break-in period. If discomfort persists, consider if the shoe's support structure is appropriate for your foot type.

Reduced cushioning over time

The GEL cushioning is designed for longevity, but like all cushioning, it will eventually compress. If you notice a significant decrease in shock absorption after extensive use, it may be time to consider replacement. Regular cleaning can help maintain material integrity.

Slipping during activity

Ensure the rubber sole is clean and free from debris. If the traction seems diminished, the sole may be worn down and require replacement. Check that the laces are tied securely to prevent foot movement within the shoe.

Poor ventilation or overheating

Ensure the synthetic fiber upper is not clogged with dirt. Try wearing moisture-wicking socks. If the issue persists, and the shoe has been heavily used, the breathability may be reduced due to material wear.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides excellent structural cushioning for all-day comfort.
  • Adaptive fit system (FLUIDFIT) ensures a secure feel.
  • Dual GEL technology effectively absorbs shock.
  • Enhanced stability through the GUIDANCE TRUSSTIC system.
  • Versatile design suitable for both athletic activities and casual wear.
  • Durable construction with a reliable rubber sole.

Cons

  • The secure fit might feel restrictive for those preferring a wider toe box.
  • Primarily designed for neutral to moderate pronation support; may not suit severe overpronators.
  • May require a break-in period for optimal comfort.
  • The focus on structure might make them less flexible than minimalist trainers.
  • Polyester and Nylon materials, while durable, might not offer the same breathability as some mesh alternatives.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The ASICS GEL-KAYANO 20 Trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size for a proper fit.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for a variety of surfaces, including roads, treadmills, and general athletic training environments. They are suitable for adult users seeking support and cushioning.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Gently clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources (like radiators or hairdryers) as this can damage the materials.
  3. Insoles: If removable, clean insoles separately according to their material.
  4. Laundering: It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can compromise their structural integrity and cushioning systems.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Consider using shoe trees to maintain their shape.
