Full details

FAQs
Is the Gel-Kayano 32 suitable for trail running?
No, this model is specifically designed for road running. The outsole rubber and mesh upper are optimized for paved surfaces and may not offer sufficient protection or grip on technical trails.
How do I know if I need stability shoes like the Kayano?
Stability shoes are typically recommended if you overpronate, meaning your foot rolls excessively inward when you land. The 4D Guidance System in this model helps correct this motion.
Can I remove the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, making the shoe compatible with most aftermarket orthotics.
How often should I replace my trainers?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and body weight.
What is the primary difference between the 32 and older models?
The Gel-Kayano 32 features an additional 2mm of foam in the forefoot and an updated tongue wing design for better midfoot security compared to its predecessors.
Troubleshooting
Feeling friction or hotspots around the midfoot
Adjust the lace tension specifically around the tongue wing and ensure the tongue is centered properly to prevent bunching.
Outsole losing traction in wet conditions
Clean the ASICSGRIP rubber surface with warm water to remove accumulated debris and road grime that may be clogging the tread pattern.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Gel-Kayano 32 trainers, proper care is essential. When fitting, ensure the midfoot tongue wing is adjusted so that the lockdown is secure but not restrictive to circulation. If you use custom orthotics, the factory insole is removable to accommodate your specific arch support needs. For cleaning, avoid the washing machine; instead, wipe away surface dirt with a soft brush and clean the mesh using mild soapy water and a cloth. Always air-dry the shoes in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the foam from degrading or the glues from separating.
