FAQs

Are the ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 suitable for running?

While the GEL technology offers cushioning, the Gel-Kayano 14 is primarily designed as a trainer for everyday wear and casual athletic activities rather than high-performance running.

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 front of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping.

Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?

The mesh upper offers some breathability but is not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, they are not ideal for heavy rain or prolonged wet conditions.

What is the benefit of the Trusstic system?

The Trusstic system provides structural integrity to the midfoot, offering stability and preventing excessive twisting of the shoe, which contributes to a more secure feel.

How does the water-saving dyeing process benefit the shoe?

This process reduces the amount of water used in the dyeing of the sockliner, making the manufacturing process more environmentally friendly.

What materials are used in the ASICS Gel-Kayano 14?

The trainers feature a mesh upper with metallic silver leather accents. The sole incorporates GEL technology and a Trusstic system.

How should I store these trainers when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or heat. Using a shoe tree or stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort after initial wear

Allow a break-in period of a few wears. Ensure the lacing is adjusted correctly for a snug but not tight fit.

Reduced cushioning over time

While GEL technology is durable, cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. Consider cleaning the shoe and ensuring no debris is trapped in the sole.

Material scuffs or marks

For leather components, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner. For mesh, a damp cloth is usually sufficient. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.

Squeaking sound during movement

This can sometimes occur due to friction within the shoe. Try removing the insole and ensuring it's dry and properly seated. Check laces for tightness.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the mesh and leather. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
