FAQs

Are the ASICS GEL-KAYANO 14 suitable for wide feet?

The standard fit is designed for average foot widths. If you have wider feet, it's recommended to try them on or consult sizing charts for potential wider options if available for this model.

How do I clean the mesh and leather components?

Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to gently clean the mesh and synthetic leather. Avoid soaking the shoes or using abrasive cleaners.

What is the primary purpose of the TRUSSTIC support unit?

The TRUSSTIC support unit is designed to enhance stability by controlling pronation and providing midfoot structural integrity, helping to guide the foot through a more efficient gait cycle.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash ASICS GEL-KAYANO 14 trainers, as this can damage the cushioning, adhesives, and materials. Hand washing or spot cleaning is the preferred method.

What is the expected lifespan of the GEL cushioning?

The lifespan of the GEL cushioning depends on usage frequency, intensity, and surface. For regular runners, it's generally recommended to consider replacing running shoes every 300-500 miles (approx. 500-800 km) to ensure optimal cushioning and support.

Is this model unisex?

While this specific listing is for a men's size (UK 11.5), the GEL-KAYANO 14 series often comes in unisex colorways and is popular across genders. Always check the specific product description and size options.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If still tight, try loosening the laces and wearing thinner socks. Some materials may offer slight stretch over time.

Reduced cushioning effectiveness

The GEL cushioning is designed for durability but can degrade over extensive use. If comfort is significantly reduced after prolonged wear, consider replacement.

Discoloration on leather overlays

Wipe gently with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a dedicated leather cleaner suitable for synthetic materials, testing in an inconspicuous area first.

Squeaking noise during walking

This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers or sole components. Try drying the shoes thoroughly. If the noise persists, it may indicate an internal issue.
