Setup, Compatibility & Care
Instructions for getting started and maintaining your ASICS Gel-Kayano 14.
Setup
- Unpack: Carefully remove your new ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 shoes from their packaging.
- Lace Up: Insert your feet and adjust the laces to achieve a snug, yet comfortable, fit. Ensure no pressure points are created.
- Break-in: For optimal comfort and to allow the shoes to conform to your foot shape, wear them for shorter periods during initial uses before extended wear.
Compatibility
- Age Group: These shoes are specifically designed and sized for adults.
- Activities: Suitable for a broad range of daily activities, walking, and potentially light athletic use where stability, cushioning, and impact protection are beneficial.
Care
- Cleaning: Gently brush off any loose dirt or debris using a soft-bristled brush. For tougher marks, use a soft cloth or sponge with a small amount of mild soap mixed with cold water. Gently wipe the affected areas. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them in direct sunlight, near heaters, or use a tumble dryer, as extreme heat can damage the materials and adhesives.
- Storage: Store your ASICS Gel-Kayano 14s in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees or stuffing them with paper to help maintain their shape when not in use.
- Maintenance: Regularly inspect the soles for wear and tear, especially the non-slip tread. Address any minor damage promptly to extend the shoe's lifespan and performance.
