FAQs

Are the ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 suitable for running?

While they feature GEL technology for cushioning and support, the Gel-Kayano 14 is primarily designed for lifestyle wear and light training. For serious or long-distance running, dedicated running shoes may offer more specialized performance.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the ASICS sizing chart available online and measure your foot. These trainers are designed for adult male sizing. If possible, try them on in-store to ensure a proper fit.

What does the 'Metropolis/Jasper Green' colorway signify?

'Metropolis' refers to the primary dark gray color, while 'Jasper Green' denotes the specific shade of green used for accent details.

Is the leather used in the shoe genuine?

Yes, the product description indicates the use of leather, which is combined with mesh for the upper construction.

What is the 'Trusstic system'?

The Trusstic system is a molded component under the midfoot, providing stability and torsional rigidity to the shoe, preventing excessive twisting and supporting the arch.

How does the water-saving dyeing process benefit the environment?

This process reduces the amount of water typically used in dyeing shoe components, lessening the environmental impact associated with water consumption and wastewater.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and structural integrity of the shoe. Hand wash and air dry as per the care instructions.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure laces are loosened before putting on. If still tight, consider if the size is correct. The materials may also require a brief break-in period.

Reduced cushioning effectiveness

The GEL technology cushioning may naturally compress over extensive use. Consider if the shoes have reached the end of their typical lifespan or if the sockliner needs cleaning/replacement.

Squeaking noise

This can sometimes occur due to moisture between the insole and midsole. Try removing the insole, drying both thoroughly, and then reinserting.

Discoloration of materials

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean with appropriate methods as per care instructions and ensure proper drying.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the mesh and leather surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution with water and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
  2. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources such as radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Laces: Remove laces before cleaning for a thorough wash. Hand wash laces with mild detergent and air dry.
  4. Insoles: If removable, take out the insoles and clean them separately with a damp cloth. Ensure they are completely dry before reinserting.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
