FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?

While the Gel-Kayano 14 UB1-S provides great cushioning for gym and casual use, it is designed primarily as a lifestyle-performance crossover rather than a dedicated long-distance marathon trainer.

How do I clean the glossy leather parts?

Use a soft, non-abrasive cloth with a small amount of mild soap and water. Avoid using shoe polish, as it may damage the glossy finish.

Is this a limited edition model?

Yes, as a collaboration with Kiko Kostadinov, the UB1-S series features limited production runs and specific design aesthetics unique to the collaboration.

What sizing system is used for this product?

This model follows standard UK adult sizing for men.

Can I replace the insoles with custom orthotics?

Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required for additional arch support.

Does the red color fade easily?

The materials used are high-quality synthetic leather, but keeping the shoes out of prolonged, direct, and harsh sunlight will help preserve the vibrancy of the color.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt or mud on glossy overlays

Wipe gently with a soft microfiber cloth dampened with cold water and mild detergent.

Creasing in the synthetic upper

Use cedar shoe trees when not in use to help maintain the shoe's internal structure and minimize deep set-in creases.

Reduced comfort or responsiveness

Check the outsole for compacted debris in the tread and ensure your laces are adjusted properly for your foot arch.

  • Easy to put on thanks to the extended heel pull tab

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Gel-Kayano 14 UB1-S remains in peak condition, proper care is essential. Since the shoe features glossy synthetic leather, avoid using harsh abrasive brushes that could strip the shine or damage the finish. Instead, wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth after use to remove dust and debris. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap solution and air dry away from direct heat sources, which can warp the synthetic materials. These shoes are true to size for most adult male foot shapes, but ensure you are selecting the correct UK sizing before purchase to guarantee an optimal lockdown fit.
