FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the GEL-KAYANO 14?

The primary benefit is the combination of renowned GEL technology cushioning for comfort and the TRUSSTIC support unit for enhanced stability during wear.

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

While they offer excellent cushioning and support for daily wear and light jogging, they are not specifically designed as high-performance marathon racing shoes. For intense, long-distance running, specialized running shoes might be more appropriate.

How do I clean the white and beige colorway?

Clean the mesh and leather with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Ensure not to saturate the materials. Allow to air dry completely away from direct heat.

What is the material of the ASICS GEL-KAYANO 14?

These trainers feature breathable mesh uppers with durable synthetic leather overlays and a leather construction.

Is this shoe suitable for wide feet?

The product information does not specify width options. It's recommended to check with the retailer or look for available width sizing (e.g., 2E, 4E) if available for this model.

What does the TRUSSTIC support unit do?

The TRUSSTIC support unit is integrated into the midsole to provide stability and reduce the risk of excessive pronation, offering better foot support.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

The mesh upper can allow water to penetrate. While the leather overlays offer some protection, they are not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to maintain their condition and comfort.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure you have the correct size and width. Break in the shoes gradually with short periods of wear. Check for any internal seams or tags causing irritation.

Reduced cushioning over time

The GEL cushioning is designed for long-term wear, but like all cushioning, it will naturally compress over time. For significant reduction, consider replacing the shoes if heavily used.

Material scuffs or damage

Clean gently with a damp cloth. For minor scuffs on leather, a specialized leather cleaner or balm might help. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Squeaking noise

This can sometimes be caused by moisture trapped between layers or the insole. Try removing the insole, drying thoroughly, and reinserting it. Talcum powder under the insole can also help.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult male and unisex wear, with a focus on general comfort and support. They are compatible with various casual and athletic wear styles.

Care:

  1. Cleaning Uppers: Gently clean the mesh and leather surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive materials that could damage the materials.
  2. Suede/Nubuck Care: If applicable to specific parts of the shoe, use a suede brush to remove dirt and maintain texture.
  3. Laces: Remove laces and wash them separately by hand or in a garment bag in the washing machine.
  4. Insoles: Remove insoles for airing or spot cleaning if needed. Ensure they are completely dry before reinserting.
  5. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, which can warp or damage the shoe.
  6. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
