FAQs
What is ASICS GEL technology and how does it benefit me?
ASICS GEL technology is a silicone-based material strategically placed in the midsole to provide advanced cushioning and shock absorption. This helps reduce the impact on your joints during movement, enhancing comfort and reducing fatigue.
Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear, or just for running?
The ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 is designed for versatility. While it offers excellent features for light running and athletic activities, its advanced comfort and stylish, retro-inspired design make it equally suitable and highly comfortable for everyday casual wear.
How do I clean my Gel-Kayano 14 shoes?
For the mesh upper, gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. For leather sections, use a suitable leather cleaner. Always air dry your shoes away from direct heat to preserve their shape and materials.
What is the TRUSSTIC Support System?
The TRUSSTIC Support System is a component in the midfoot that reduces the weight of the sole unit while maintaining the shoe's structural integrity. This provides enhanced stability and support to the foot during movement.
Is the sizing consistent with other ASICS models?
Info needed: While ASICS generally aims for consistent sizing, it can sometimes vary slightly between models or individual's foot shapes. It's recommended to consult ASICS' official size guide or try the shoes on for the most accurate fit.
Can these shoes be machine washed?
No, it is not recommended to machine wash your ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 shoes. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning properties. Always follow the manual cleaning instructions provided.
Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort or rubbing during wear.
Check your lacing to ensure it's not too tight or too loose. Experiment with different sock thicknesses. If discomfort persists, verify your shoe size against ASICS' recommendations.
Shoes feel less stable or supportive over time.
The TRUSSTIC System is durable, but overall shoe structure can degrade with extreme wear. Ensure the sole is clean. If significant wear is visible, consider replacing the shoes.
The mesh upper appears stained or dirty.
Gently clean the mesh with a soft brush or cloth moistened with mild soapy water. For tougher stains, a specialized shoe cleaner designed for mesh might be helpful. Always air dry.

Ensure your heel is seated firmly against the back of the shoe before tightening laces.

Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your ASICS Gel-Kayano 14:
- Cleaning the Mesh Upper: Gently wipe the mesh with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid harsh scrubbing, which can damage the material.
- Cleaning Leather Overlays: Use a dedicated leather cleaner or a damp cloth with mild soap. Wipe gently and allow to air dry.
- Cleaning the Sole: Use a brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and debris from the rubber sole for continued traction.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources like radiators. Excessive heat can alter the shape and integrity of the materials.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape when not in use.
