FAQs
Are the ASICS GEL-Kayano 14 suitable for wide feet?
The GEL-Kayano 14 is designed with a standard width. While the lacing system allows for some adjustment, individuals with significantly wide feet might find them snug. It is recommended to try them on if possible or consult sizing guides for the best fit.
How do I clean the synthetic leather and textile upper?
Gently wipe the upper with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap mixed with water and a soft brush or cloth. Rinse lightly with a clean damp cloth and allow to air dry completely.
What is the main benefit of the TRUSSTIC™ system?
The TRUSSTIC™ system provides enhanced stability and torsional rigidity in the midfoot, improving movement control and preventing excessive twisting during athletic activities.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning technology within the shoe.
What type of running are these shoes best for?
The GEL-Kayano 14 is ideal for daily running, providing excellent cushioning and support for neutral pronation. They are well-suited for road running and general training.
How does the GEL™ technology work?
The GEL™ technology is strategically placed in the midsole to absorb shock during impact phases of running and walking, providing a softer landing and reducing stress on the joints.
What is the difference between this reinterpretation and the original GEL-Kayano 14?
This version maintains the iconic retro silhouette while incorporating updated Asics technologies for enhanced comfort, cushioning, and performance compared to the original model.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing system. For a tighter fit, pull laces more firmly. For a looser fit, loosen the laces across the top of the foot. Consider using different lacing techniques if specific pressure points exist.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
While the GEL™ technology is durable, prolonged heavy use can reduce its responsiveness. Ensure you are not exceeding the intended use for the shoe. If the cushioning feels significantly diminished, it may be time to consider a replacement pair.
Discoloration of materials
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause materials to fade. Clean the shoes regularly according to the care instructions to maintain their appearance.
Slipping on wet surfaces
The rubber outsole provides traction, but caution is advised on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean from debris for optimal grip.
