Full details

FAQs
Is the ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 suitable for long-distance running?
While it features performance technology, it is primarily categorized as a trainer/lifestyle shoe and is best suited for daily wear and light athletic activities.
Does this model fit true to size?
The Gel-Kayano 14 generally fits true to standard UK adult sizing, though the supportive overlays may make the fit feel slightly more snug than non-structured models.
Can I replace the insole?
Yes, the insole is removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if required.
How should I clean the Malachite Green overlays?
Use a soft brush and a light touch with a damp cloth to avoid color transfer or bleeding onto the white base.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
The materials are not inherently water-resistant; applying a protective spray can help protect them from light moisture.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the synthetic overlays
This is a normal characteristic of the material; use a shoe tree when not in use to help maintain shape.
Difficulty maintaining the white base cleanliness
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution and a soft brush to spot-clean regularly rather than allowing dirt to set.
Sensation of the fit being too stiff
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly; these shoes benefit from a short break-in period to allow the foam and synthetic structure to mold to your foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gel-Kayano 14 trainers remain in top condition, proper maintenance is essential. As these shoes feature a white base, consider using a water and stain repellent spray upon purchase to protect the mesh and synthetic overlays. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried dirt from the sole and upper. If deep cleaning is required, gently wipe the synthetic areas with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as high heat can damage the GEL units and adhesive components. When storing, keep your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration.
