FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Gel Kayano 14 is typically offered in standard widths. While they offer a supportive fit, individuals with particularly wide feet might find them snug. Checking for specific wide-fit options or consulting size guides is recommended.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping, and the midfoot should feel comfortably snug, not tight.

What is the primary benefit of the Gel Kayano technology?

The Gel Kayano technology is ASICS' signature cushioning system that provides excellent shock absorption, particularly upon impact, and helps create a smoother transition during your stride.

Can I wear these shoes for other sports besides running?

While primarily designed for running, the supportive and cushioned nature of the Gel Kayano 14 makes them suitable for general training and fitness activities. However, for sports requiring specific lateral support (like tennis or basketball), dedicated shoes are recommended.

How often should I replace my Gel Kayano 14 trainers?

For running, it's generally recommended to replace trainers every 300-500 miles, or when you notice significant wear on the outsole, midsole compression, or a decrease in cushioning and support.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the ASICS Gel Kayano 14 trainers are not waterproof. They are designed with breathable materials for comfort, which means they are not impervious to water.

What does the 'White Dark Grape' colorway signify?

This refers to the primary color being white, with significant accent colors being dark grape purple. This combination defines the aesthetic appearance of this specific model.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels off

Ensure feet are measured correctly, ideally in the afternoon when feet are slightly larger. Consider trying a half size up or down if discomfort persists. Break-in period might be needed.

Reduced cushioning effect over time

The Gel cushioning is designed for longevity, but its effectiveness can diminish with heavy use. For prolonged optimal performance, consider replacing trainers after 300-500 miles of running or when significant wear is visible.

Discomfort during initial wear

New athletic shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase duration. Ensure socks are appropriate for athletic wear.

Scuff marks or dirt on the white upper

Use a damp cloth with mild soap for cleaning. For stubborn marks, a specialized shoe cleaner for trainers can be effective. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
