FAQs
What is the main benefit of the GEL cushioning?
The GEL cushioning technology in the ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 provides superior shock absorption, offering enhanced comfort and reducing impact on your feet and joints during wear.
Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?
While the GEL cushioning offers comfort, the Gel-Kayano 14 is primarily designed as a retro trainer for casual wear and light athletic activities. For marathon running, specialized performance running shoes are recommended.
How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, use a suede cleaner or a slightly damp cloth with mild soap, then allow to air dry and brush again.
Can I wear these trainers with different sock types?
Yes, they are compatible with most standard sock types. For maximum comfort, consider wearing athletic or trainer socks.
What does the 'late 2000s runner silhouette' refer to?
This refers to the design style popular in running shoes during the late 2000s, characterized by specific shapes, materials, and detailing that the Gel-Kayano 14 recreates.
Are these trainers unisex?
The product information indicates they are designed for men, but the retro style is often embraced across genders. Please check specific sizing charts if considering for non-male sizing.
What is the material of the outsole?
The outsole is made of rubber, providing durability and reliable traction.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise from shoes
This can sometimes happen due to friction between shoe components. Try loosening the laces slightly or ensure insoles are properly seated. If it persists, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.
Uneven wear on outsole
Inspect your walking gait. If the wear is due to pronation or supination, consider consulting a podiatrist. Ensure you are using the shoes for their intended purpose (training/casual wear) and not for highly aggressive sports.
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure you have the correct size and width. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods initially. Check socks for seams that might be causing friction.
