FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The ASICS GEL-KAYANO 12.1 trainers are designed for comfort and light training. For marathon running, specialized shoes with advanced support and cushioning tailored for endurance events are recommended.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. Your heel should feel secure and not slip excessively when walking.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials and cushioning. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.

What is the primary benefit of the GEL inserts?

The GEL inserts are designed to provide enhanced shock absorption and comfort, particularly in the heel and forefoot areas, reducing impact during wear.

How do the 'Gravel' overlays contribute to the shoe?

The synthetic 'Gravel' overlays provide structural support to the upper, enhancing durability and giving the shoe a more technical aesthetic.

Are these trainers waterproof?

The trainers feature a mesh and synthetic upper, which offers breathability but is not waterproof. They are suitable for dry conditions and light moisture, but not for heavy rain or prolonged exposure to wet environments.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the lacing to find a more secure or comfortable fit. If the size is fundamentally incorrect, consider exchanging for a different size.

Reduced cushioning effectiveness over time.

While the cushioning is designed for durability, prolonged heavy use can reduce its efficacy. For extended life, use them primarily for their intended purpose (walking, light training) rather than high-impact activities.

Slight squeaking sound.

This can sometimes occur due to moisture between the insole and midsole. Try removing the insole and ensuring both are completely dry before reinserting.

Care: To maintain the condition of your trainers:
