FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The GEL-Kayano 14 features a lace-up closure that allows for some adjustability. However, for specific width needs, it is best to consult sizing guides or try them on to ensure a comfortable fit, as they are designed with a standard fit in mind.
What is the main benefit of the GEL cushioning?
The GEL cushioning unit is designed to absorb shock effectively, providing a comfortable and smooth ride while reducing impact on your joints during physical activity.
Can I wear these shoes for marathon running?
While the GEL-Kayano 14 offers excellent cushioning and support, they are primarily designed as versatile trainers. For dedicated marathon runners, it's recommended to consult specific running shoe reviews or consult with a running specialist to ensure they meet the demands of extreme distances.
How do I ensure the best fit?
It is recommended to measure your foot and compare it to the Asics sizing chart. Trying them on towards the end of the day, when feet are typically larger, can also help ensure a proper fit.
What does the TRUSSTIC™ system do?
The TRUSSTIC™ system provides stability and support to the midfoot, helping to control pronation and maintain the shoe's structural integrity.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Asics GEL-Kayano 14 trainers are not designed to be waterproof. The upper is made of breathable leather and textile, which allows for ventilation but does not offer protection against heavy rain or submersion in water.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring even pressure distribution. If still tight, consider if this is the correct size or if the laces need to be adjusted for a wider fit.
Reduced cushioning effect
The GEL cushioning may take some time to break in. If the issue persists after several wears, ensure there are no obstructions within the shoe and that the foot is positioned correctly.
Slipping on certain surfaces
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from excessive dirt or debris, which can affect traction. For very slick surfaces, caution is advised.
Upper material shows wear
Regular cleaning and proper storage can help prevent premature wear. Avoid exposing the shoes to excessive moisture or harsh conditions.
