Product Information
Full details
The ASICS Gel-Kayano 32 is a premium stability running shoe designed for adult female runners who overpronate and require extra arch support for long-distance training. Its primary benefit is a combination of advanced impact absorption and guided stability, though runners who prefer a barefoot, ground-feel experience may find the substantial cushioning too thick for their needs.

FAQs
Is the Gel-Kayano 32 suitable for neutral runners?
While primarily designed for overpronators, neutral runners who desire a highly cushioned, stable ride may also find them comfortable, though they are specifically engineered to correct inward rolling.
How do I clean the knitted upper?
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid putting them in the washing machine as this can damage the structural integrity of the foam and glue.
How often should I replace these shoes?
Generally, running shoes like the Gel-Kayano 32 should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and body weight.
Does this shoe provide enough cushioning for marathons?
Yes, the combination of PureGEL and the 2mm thicker FF BLAST PLUS ECO foam makes this shoe highly effective for long-distance efforts.
Can I use my own orthotic insoles with this shoe?
Yes, the sockliner is removable to accommodate custom-molded orthotics if needed.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure on the top of the foot
Try a different lacing technique, such as the window lacing method, to relieve tension across the bridge of your foot.
Heel slippage
Utilize the 'runner's loop' or 'heel lock' lacing technique using the top-most eyelet on the collar.
Outsole debris collection
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently clear small stones or dirt from the outsole grooves after each run.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your trainers, focus on proper fit and moisture management. Upon receiving your UK size 8 shoes, test them while wearing your preferred running socks to account for natural foot swelling during exercise. After particularly wet runs, remove the sockliner and stuff the interior with newspaper to draw out moisture; do not place the shoes near direct heat sources, as this can warp the foam. Regularly check the outsole for debris lodged in the tread to maintain optimal grip performance.
