FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the GEL-Kayano 14 was originally designed as a running shoe in 2008, this reimagined edition is now firmly established for contemporary street fashion and lifestyle wear. It provides excellent comfort and support for daily activities, but for serious or high-performance running, we recommend ASICS' current dedicated running shoe lines.

How do I clean my ASICS GEL-Kayano 14 sneakers?

Gently wipe the synthetic leather and textile upper with a damp, soft cloth and mild soap. Air dry at room temperature away from direct sunlight. Do not machine wash or use harsh chemicals.

Is the sizing true to fit?

ASICS generally runs true to size. We recommend purchasing your usual sneaker size. If you are unsure, referring to ASICS' official size guide and measuring your foot can help ensure the best fit.

What is the GEL technology?

GEL technology is ASICS' signature cushioning system. It involves strategically placed GEL units in the midsole that absorb shock during impact and provide a softer feel and smoother transition through each step, enhancing overall comfort.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles in the GEL-Kayano 14 are removable, allowing you to replace them with custom orthotics or fresh insoles for personalized comfort and hygiene.

What does 'TRUSSTIC Support System' do?

The TRUSSTIC Support System is a technology located under the arch of the shoe that provides enhanced stability and reduces the weight of the sole unit while retaining the structural integrity of the shoe. It helps control torsion and provides a smoother ride.

Are these shoes unisex?

While this particular variant (Cream/Ironclad, UK 10) is listed under 'Female' in attributes, the ASICS GEL-Kayano 14 design is widely considered unisex and is popular across genders. Fit might slightly vary, so checking the size chart is always recommended.

What materials are used in the upper?

The upper is constructed from a combination of high-quality synthetic leather and breathable textile material (mesh), offering durability, support, and comfort.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Ensure you have the correct size. Lacing techniques can also adjust fit: looser lacing for wider feet, tighter lacing for narrower feet. Consider trying on different sizes if discomfort persists.

Squeaking sound when walking

Check if the insoles are properly seated or if they are damp. Sometimes, the outsole rubber can squeak on certain floor types; this is often normal. A light application of talcum powder under the insole can sometimes help.

Foot discomfort or rubbing

Break-in period may be needed for new shoes. Ensure you're wearing appropriate socks. Check for any seams or irregularities inside the shoe that might be causing irritation.

Discoloration or staining on the upper

Clean immediately with a damp cloth and mild soap. For persistent stains on synthetic leather, a specialized shoe cleaner might be needed. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

While GEL technology is durable, shoe cushioning can compress over extensive use. If shoes are very old or heavily used, consider replacement as cushioning properties diminish.

Care Instructions

  1. Cleaning the Upper: For the synthetic leather and textile material, gently wipe with a damp, soft cloth using mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes.
  2. Drying: Air dry at room temperature. Do not expose to direct sunlight or use artificial heat sources, as this can damage materials.
  3. Insoles: Remove insoles periodically to air them out, which helps prevent odors.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain material integrity and color.
  5. Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can severely damage the shoe's structure and materials.
