FAQs

What is ASICS GEL technology?

ASICS GEL technology is a cushioning system designed to absorb impact effectively. It's strategically placed in the sole to provide comfort and protection during movement, reducing stress on the feet and joints.

What is the TRUSSTIC support system?

The TRUSSTIC support system is a component located in the midfoot area of the sole. Its purpose is to provide stability, reduce the weight of the sole unit, and help maintain the structural integrity of the shoe, preventing excessive twisting.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the GEL-KAYANO series has a strong running heritage, the GEL-KAYANO 14 has been reimagined and updated for the modern wearer, focusing on a 2000s aesthetic and all-day comfort for lifestyle use. For dedicated running, ASICS offers specific performance running models.

How do I determine the correct size?

The ASICS GEL-KAYANO 14 uses standard UK sizing. It's recommended to try on shoes towards the end of the day when your feet are at their largest. Ensure there's a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.

What materials are used in the shoe?

The ASICS GEL-KAYANO 14 features a Textile & Synthetic Upper for breathability and support, combined with a durable Synthetic Sole for traction and cushioning.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

The ASICS GEL-KAYANO 14 is not waterproof. While the synthetic materials offer some resistance, prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided to protect the materials and maintain comfort.

Troubleshooting

My feet feel hot or sweaty.

Ensure you are wearing breathable, moisture-wicking socks. The shoe features a breathable mesh upper, but appropriate socks enhance ventilation. Consider airing out your shoes between wears.

The metallic overlays appear dull.

Gently wipe the metallic 'Pure Silver' overlays with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dust and restore their shine. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.

The shoes feel less supportive over time.

Footwear support can diminish with extensive use. Ensure you are cleaning them properly and storing them correctly. If comfort or support significantly decreases, it may be time to consider replacement.

There's a squeaking noise when I walk.

Sometimes a squeak can occur if moisture gets between the insole and the sole. Try removing the insole and allowing both the insole and the shoe interior to air dry completely. If the issue persists, check for any trapped debris in the sole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Simply unbox and lace up your ASICS GEL-KAYANO 14. Ensure a snug, comfortable fit that allows for natural foot movement without excessive pressure points. Breaking them in generally requires minimal time due to their immediate comfort.

Compatibility:

These shoes are designed for adult wearers, specifically for daily casual use and walking. They are compatible with standard athletic socks. For optimal comfort, choose socks that are breathable and moisture-wicking.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: For the textile and synthetic upper, gently wipe away dirt with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap (if necessary). Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes which can damage the material or metallic overlays.
  2. Cleaning the Sole: Use a brush (an old toothbrush works well) to remove dirt and debris from the synthetic sole and grooves.
  3. Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can deform materials.
  4. Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape when not in use.
  5. Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash or tumble dry your GEL-KAYANO 14s, as this can severely damage the shoe's structure and materials.
