FAQs
What type of runner is the ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 best suited for?
The Gel-Kayano 14 is ideal for neutral runners or those who experience mild overpronation. It offers excellent stability and cushioning for daily training and long-distance running.
How do I know if I have the right size?
There should be about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The heel should feel secure without slipping, and the midfoot should feel comfortably snug.
Can these shoes be used for gym workouts?
Yes, the ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 can be used for general gym workouts and cross-training due to their stable base and cushioning. However, for very specialized activities like heavy weightlifting, a flatter, more rigid shoe might be preferred.
How often should I replace my Gel-Kayano 14 trainers?
Typically, running shoes like the Gel-Kayano 14 should be replaced every 300-500 miles (or 500-800 kilometers) of running, or when you notice significant wear on the outsole or a loss of cushioning.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 trainers are not waterproof. They feature breathable mesh uppers designed for ventilation, which means they will not keep water out.
What is the main difference between the GEL and FlyteFoam technologies?
GEL technology is primarily for shock absorption, placed in key impact areas. FlyteFoam is a lightweight midsole material that provides continuous cushioning and bounce-back throughout the entire midsole.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Utilize the lacing system to adjust the fit. If the issue persists, consider trying a half-size larger or a model with a wider fit.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness
Over time, cushioning materials can compress. Ensure the shoes are not beyond their typical lifespan for your activity level. Check for any debris lodged in the midsole grooves.
Poor traction on wet surfaces
The outsole is designed for general traction. For very wet or slippery conditions, exercise caution. Ensure the outsole is clean and free from mud or debris that could impair grip.
Upper material feels uncomfortable
Break in the shoes gradually with shorter runs or walks. The FluidFit technology is designed to adapt over time. Ensure socks are appropriate for running to prevent chafing.

Care Instructions:
