Product Information

Full details

The ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 'Monaco Blue Silver' trainers are designed for adult males seeking a blend of retro style and modern comfort for everyday wear and light activities. Their key benefit lies in the iconic design combined with GEL cushioning for stability and shock absorption. A potential caveat is that their retro aesthetic might not suit all modern fashion preferences, and they are primarily designed as fashion sneakers rather than high-performance athletic gear.

FAQs

Are the ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 suitable for marathon running?

The Gel-Kayano 14 is designed primarily as a lifestyle sneaker with retro running aesthetics. While it offers good cushioning, it may not provide the specialized support and features required for competitive marathon running compared to dedicated performance running shoes.

How do I clean my Gel-Kayano 14 trainers?

Gently clean the exterior with a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth, then wipe clean with water. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat.

What does the 'TRUSSTIC' system do?

The TRUSSTIC support system is located in the midfoot of the shoe. It provides stability by helping to control the rate at which the foot proned during the stride, offering enhanced support and preventing excessive twisting.

Is this shoe good for wide feet?

The standard fit is designed for average foot widths. If you have significantly wide feet, you may find them snug. It's advisable to try them on or check for available wide-fit versions if necessary.

What is the benefit of the solution dyeing process for the sockliner?

The solution dyeing process for the sockliner reduces water usage by approximately 33% and carbon emissions by about 45% compared to conventional dyeing methods, making it a more environmentally conscious choice.

Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning system. Hand washing or spot cleaning is the preferred method for care.

What is the main difference between this retro model and modern running shoes?

This model emphasizes a retro aesthetic and comfort for lifestyle wear. Modern performance running shoes typically feature updated materials, more advanced support technologies, and lighter construction optimized for specific running disciplines.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear with thin socks initially and walk around indoors to break them in. If still uncomfortable, consider if the size is correct or if a wider fit might be needed.

Slight squeaking sound

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try wearing them for a few days; the sound often dissipates with use. Ensure the insoles are properly seated.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces

While the sole has anti-slip grooves, extreme wet conditions can still reduce traction. Exercise caution on very slick surfaces.

Material discoloration

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean with appropriate methods for the materials (mesh and synthetic overlays).
