FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathons?
Yes, the Gel-Kayano 33 is a popular choice for long-distance training and marathons due to its focus on comfort and impact protection.
How often should I replace these trainers?
It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style and surface conditions.
Can I use custom orthotics with this shoe?
Yes, the OrthoLite sockliner is removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if needed.
Are they waterproof?
No, they feature an engineered mesh upper for breathability, which is not waterproof.
What is the primary function of the PureGEL technology?
PureGEL is designed to provide softer cushioning and improved shock absorption, specifically targeting the rearfoot area where runners typically strike first.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels too tight or restricted
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'window lacing' style to relieve pressure points across the top of the foot.
Outsole collecting debris
Use a small pick or soft brush to clear pebbles or twigs from the HYBRID ASICSGRIP channels after use.
Moisture buildup inside the shoe
Remove the OrthoLite sockliner after runs to allow it to air dry separately, or use moisture-absorbing inserts overnight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Gel-Kayano 33 trainers, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure you have roughly half a thumb's width of space at the front of the toe box for optimal comfort.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. Use a damp cloth with mild detergent to spot clean the mesh upper; do not machine wash or dry as this can damage the cushioning foams.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the shoe structure.
- Rotation: If you run daily, consider rotating with another pair to allow the midsole foam to recover its shape, extending the overall lifespan of the cushioning.
