Product Information
Full details
The ASICS Gel-Kayano 31 is an elite-level trainer designed for adult runners who require superior stability and cushioning for daily training sessions. This model excels by providing a smooth, supportive ride that reduces impact during long-distance efforts, making it ideal for those with mild to moderate overpronation. One caveat is that its heavy-duty support features can make it feel bulkier compared to lightweight racing flats, which may not suit athletes looking for a minimalist feel.

FAQs
Is the Gel-Kayano 31 good for overpronation?
Yes, it is designed specifically for runners who need stability and support to correct mild to moderate overpronation.
Can I use these for marathon training?
Absolutely, the Gel-Kayano series is widely recognized as a premier choice for high-mileage and marathon preparation due to its durability and cushioning.
How do I know if I have the right size?
There should be approximately a thumbnail's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesives and the internal cushioning foam. Always clean by hand.
What is the primary function of the Gel technology?
The Gel technology is positioned to provide maximum shock absorption, reducing impact on your joints during the heel-strike phase of your stride.
Troubleshooting
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Utilize the top eyelet to create a runner's loop or heel lock to tighten the rearfoot fit.
Upper mesh accumulating dirt
Allow mud to dry completely and use a soft-bristled brush to remove the debris; avoid soaking the materials.
Feeling of stiffness in the midsole
Ensure the shoe is fully broken in by wearing it for short walks or light jogs for the first 30-50 miles.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent arch support for stability
- High-impact shock absorption

- Not intended for pure speed work
- More substantial structure may feel stiff to some users
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, adjust the lacing from the bottom up to account for foot swelling that occurs during exercise. The shoe is compatible with most standard aftermarket orthotics if additional arch support is needed, though the stock insoles are designed to work in tandem with the shoe's internal support architecture. For care, keep the trainers away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping. If they become wet, stuff them with newspaper or moisture-wicking cloths to dry naturally in a well-ventilated area. Avoid machine washing, which can degrade the integrity of the foam cushioning; spot clean instead with mild soap and a soft brush.
