FAQs

What is the inspiration behind the 'Just Say No' GEL-Kayano 14?

The design is a collaboration between ASICS and Sneaker Politics, inspired by the "Just Say No" campaign, reflecting a specific cultural moment with unique visual elements.

What materials are used in this sneaker?

The upper primarily uses Nylon, with synthetic overlays in gold and silver. The midsole features ASICS' signature GEL technology, and the insoles have a distinctive hemp pattern.

How do I clean the cream midsole?

Gently wipe the cream midsole with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn stains, use a sneaker cleaning solution formulated for foam. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Is this a limited edition release?

Yes, this is a special, limited edition collaboration, which means availability may be restricted.

What are the key color elements of this shoe?

The primary colors are cream and gold, with a distinct red accent on the heel. The midsole is also cream, highlighting the GEL inserts.

Are these suitable for running?

While built on a performance running shoe's foundation, the GEL-Kayano 14 'Just Say No' is primarily a lifestyle sneaker due to its collaborative design and aesthetic focus. They offer good comfort for walking and everyday wear.

What sizes are available?

This specific variant is listed in UK size 9. Other sizes in the GEL-Kayano 14 series may be available through different listings or retailers.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels off

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If discomfort persists, consider trying a different size, as sizing can vary slightly between models and personal preference.

Color transfer from red heel accent

Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored materials, especially when damp, to prevent color transfer. If transfer occurs, clean affected areas immediately with a gentle cleaner.

Midsole appears dirty quickly

Regularly wipe down the cream midsole with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a specialized sneaker cleaner designed for foam or rubber.

Laces fraying or showing wear

Replace laces with standard shoelaces of a similar length. Consider using wax-coated laces for added durability.
