Asics GEL-Kayano 12.1 Trainers - Cream / Carbon - UK 6.5

The design is inspired by European gothic armor, particularly its structural and metallic properties, merged with the iconic elements of the 2006 GEL-Kayano.

It utilizes the tooling system from the GEL-NIMBUS 17, featuring dual GEL technology inserts and FLUIDRIDE cushioning, originally engineered for marathon comfort.

While the cushioning system is inspired by marathon shoes, these are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers for comfort and style in daily wear and light activities.

Wipe the leather overlays gently with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid using strong cleaning agents.

The open mesh underlays are designed to improve airflow and ventilation, helping to keep your feet cool.

The upper is constructed with synthetic materials and features leather overlays for added structure and style.

These trainers are specifically marketed for men. While style is subjective, the sizing and design are based on men's footwear standards.

Ensure you have the correct size and width. Try wearing them for short periods initially to break them in. Check if the lacing is too tight or uneven.

The cushioning technology is designed for long-term durability. If you feel a significant reduction, ensure there are no external factors affecting performance and consider if the shoes have reached the end of their typical lifespan.

Squeaking can sometimes occur due to friction between different shoe components or moisture. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder inside the shoe or around the tongue area.
