FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for serious running?
While the GEL-Kayano 14 originated as a running shoe, this reimagined version is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. It offers excellent comfort for daily activities, but modern running shoes may provide more specialized performance features for serious training.
How do I clean my ASICS GEL-Kayano 14 shoes?
Gently remove loose dirt with a soft brush. Use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap to wipe down the mesh and synthetic overlays. Wipe away soap residue with a clean cloth and air dry at room temperature. Do not machine wash or use harsh chemicals.
What does 'GEL Technology' do?
ASICS' GEL Technology is a silicone-based cushioning system placed in the midsole. It's designed to absorb shock during impact, providing superior comfort and protecting your joints with a softer landing and smoother transition.
Is the sizing true to fit for the GEL-Kayano 14?
ASICS shoes generally fit true to size. However, foot shapes can vary. If you are unsure, it is recommended to consult ASICS' official size guide or try them on to ensure the best fit.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
The mesh upper provides breathability but is not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions is not recommended as it can affect the materials and overall comfort.
What is the TRUSSTIC Support System?
The TRUSSTIC System technology is a lightweight component located under the arch of the shoe. Its purpose is to provide enhanced stability, reduce the weight of the sole unit, and maintain the shoe's structural integrity during movement.
What is the significance of the 'Cream/Ironclad' colorway?
The 'Cream/Ironclad' colorway refers to a specific combination of light, creamy tones with darker, often metallic-like, accents. This particular palette gives the shoe a unique, subtle, and versatile aesthetic that is popular in contemporary street fashion.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly for your foot. Try different lacing techniques to customize the fit. If persistent, consider if a different size might be needed.
Discoloration or visible dirt on mesh/synthetics
Follow the care instructions: gently brush off loose dirt, then wipe with a damp cloth using mild soap. For tough spots, a soft brush with soap can be used on the mesh, followed by a clean wipe.
Squeaking sound while walking
This can sometimes occur with new rubber outsoles or due to moisture. Try wearing them in. If it persists, a small amount of talcum powder applied to the outsole (where it meets the midsole) might help.
