FAQs
Are these shoes good for pronation?
Yes, the Gel-Kayano series is known for providing excellent support and stability, making it suitable for runners who overpronate mildly.
What is the main benefit of the GEL technology?
The GEL technology is designed to absorb shock effectively upon impact, providing a softer landing and reducing stress on your joints.
How do I know if I have the right size?
There should be about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. The shoe should feel snug but not tight, with no heel slippage.
Can I wear these for walking as well as running?
Absolutely. The cushioning and support make them comfortable for everyday walking and casual wear, in addition to running.
How often should I replace my Gel-Kayano 14 trainers?
For running, it's generally recommended to replace them every 300-500 miles, or when the cushioning feels significantly diminished or you start experiencing aches and pains.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, these trainers are not waterproof. They are designed for breathability and performance, which means they are not designed to repel water.
Troubleshooting
Initial tightness or discomfort
The shoes may require a break-in period. Wear them for short distances initially and gradually increase duration. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in phase.
Reduced cushioning over time
While durable, cushioning can degrade after extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes after 300-500 miles of running, or when you notice a significant decrease in shock absorption.
Difficulty cleaning stubborn marks
For tougher stains, use a mild soap with water and a soft brush. Test on an inconspicuous area first. Always rinse thoroughly and air dry.
