FAQs
What type of activity are these trainers best suited for?
The ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 'Monaco Blue Silver' trainers are ideal for running, walking, and general everyday wear. They offer a good balance of cushioning and support.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the sizing guide provided by ASICS or the retailer. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to the UK sizing chart. For trainers, ensuring a snug but not tight fit is crucial.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the mesh upper is designed for breathability and is not waterproof. They are suitable for dry conditions or light moisture but should not be submerged in water.
What is the benefit of the GEL cushioning?
The GEL cushioning technology absorbs shock effectively, providing a soft landing and reducing stress on your joints during impact.
How often should I replace my running trainers?
It's generally recommended to replace running trainers every 300-500 miles (480-800 km) or when you notice significant wear on the sole or a loss of cushioning.
Can I wear these trainers if I have wide feet?
The standard fit might be narrow for individuals with significantly wide feet. It is advisable to check if a wide (2E or 4E) version is available or try them on in person.
What does 'TRUSSTIC' support mean?
The TRUSSTIC system is a plastic component located in the midfoot that provides stability and prevents excessive torsional movement, helping to maintain the shoe's structural integrity.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Try wearing them with the intended type of socks. Some initial break-in period may be required for a perfect fit.
Traction seems reduced on certain surfaces
Clean the outsole grooves to remove any embedded debris that may be affecting grip. Ensure the rubber sole is not excessively worn down.
Discoloration on the upper
Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap as per care instructions. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
Soles squeak during walking
This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers. Try allowing the shoes to air dry completely. If the issue persists, it might be a manufacturing anomaly.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the mesh and synthetic upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh scrubbing to prevent damage.
- Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove dirt from the GEL cushioning and rubber sole. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
