FAQs
Is the ASICS Gel-Kayano 32 suitable for flat feet?
Yes, the Gel-Kayano series is specifically designed for stability and is often recommended for runners with flat feet or those who over-pronate.
How should I store these trainers?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the foam materials and adhesives from deteriorating.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
While effective for cardio and treadmill use, they are best suited for running rather than heavy weightlifting or lateral-movement-heavy gym classes.
How often should I replace my Gel-Kayano 32s?
It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and body weight.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the standard Gel-Kayano 32 is designed with breathable mesh and is not water-resistant or waterproof.
Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort or hot spots during runs
Ensure the laces are not over-tightened and consider testing different lacing patterns to relieve pressure points.
Excessive shoe wear on the outer heel
This may indicate a change in your gait; consider replacing the shoes if the cushioning has compressed beyond 400-500 miles of use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ASICS Gel-Kayano 32, always untie the laces before removing the shoe to preserve the heel counter's structural integrity. Compatibility depends heavily on your specific arch profile; individuals with flat to neutral arches will find this shoe particularly effective. For maintenance, clean the exterior using a soft brush and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can degrade the integrity of the foam cushioning. If the interior becomes damp, remove the sockliner and let the shoes air dry away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
