Ensure your heel feels secure, and there's about a thumb's width space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe to allow for natural foot expansion during activity.

Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your Gel-Kayano 14 shoes:
- Cleaning: For surface dirt, gently wipe the mesh and leather components with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage materials and adhesives.
- Odor Control: Remove insoles periodically to air them out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or baking soda sprinkled inside to absorb moisture and odors.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid storing them in plastic bags as this can trap moisture.
- Rotation: If you run frequently, consider rotating between two pairs of shoes. This allows each pair to fully dry out and recover its cushioning between uses, prolonging their lifespan.
