FAQs

Is the Gel-Kayano 14 suitable for long-distance running?

The Gel-Kayano 14 offers excellent comfort and impact absorption, making it suitable for short to medium-distance running. For very long distances, some runners might prefer models with more advanced, lighter-weight cushioning designed specifically for marathons.

How do I clean my ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 shoes?

Gently brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap. Wipe the synthetic upper and rubber outsole. Avoid soaking the shoes or machine washing them, and always air dry away from direct heat.

What is the TRUSSTIC support system for?

The TRUSSTIC support system is a component located under the arch of the shoe. Its purpose is to enhance stability, reduce the weight of the sole unit, and help prevent the shoe from twisting during movement, providing a more stable and supportive ride.

Does the Gel-Kayano 14 fit true to size?

Yes, the ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 is designed to fit regular and generally runs true to size. However, foot shapes vary, so if you are unsure, it is always recommended to try them on or consult a size guide.

Can I use these shoes for gym workouts or cross-training?

Absolutely. The Gel-Kayano 14's stability and cushioning make it a great choice for general gym workouts, weight training, and other cross-training activities where lateral movement is not excessively aggressive. Its comfort is also ideal for extended wear during gym sessions.

What's the difference between this reinterpretation and original 2000s models?

This modern reinterpretation maintains the iconic aesthetic of the 2000s Gel-Kayano 14 but incorporates updated materials and components for improved comfort, durability, and a refreshed feel while preserving the original design philosophy.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or uncomfortable

Check your lacing. Try loosening the laces, especially in the forefoot area. Ensure you have the correct size; ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 fits regular, but individual foot shapes vary. Consider wearing thinner socks.

Loss of cushioning feel or support

Running shoes have a lifespan, typically 300-500 miles. If you've put many miles on them, the cushioning may be compressed. It might be time for a new pair. Ensure you're storing them correctly when not in use.

Slipping on wet surfaces

While the rubber outsole offers good traction, extreme wet or icy conditions can reduce grip. Slow down and be cautious. Check the outsole for excessive wear; worn outsoles have reduced grip.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes happen if moisture gets between the insole and the shoe's footbed. Try removing the insoles, cleaning both the insole and the footbed, and letting them dry completely before reinserting. If it persists, it might be a material friction issue that usually resolves with more wear.
