FAQs
Is the GEL-KAYANO 12.1 suitable for running?
This model is designed primarily as a lifestyle trainer. While it has performance roots, it is better suited for walking and casual daily use.
How should I clean the synthetic overlays?
Wipe the overlays gently with a soft cloth and a small amount of mild detergent, then wipe away any soap residue with a clean damp cloth.
Does this shoe provide good arch support?
The GEL-KAYANO series is known for its structural integrity, and the 12.1 offers a balanced level of support for standard daily activities.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and the structural integrity of the synthetic overlays. Hand cleaning is recommended.
Are these shoes unisex?
While the sizing is provided in adult UK measurements, the design is versatile. Please refer to the specific colorway and sizing to ensure the best fit for your needs.
Troubleshooting
Outer mesh looks dusty or dirty
Use a dry soft brush to gently lift dirt out of the mesh pores before wiping with a damp cloth.
Foot feels slightly cramped
Loosen the laces starting from the eyelets closest to the toe box to allow the mesh to expand.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your GEL-KAYANO 12.1 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Breaking In: Wear them for short periods initially to allow the synthetic overlays and mesh to conform to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Clean the porous mesh using a soft-bristled brush to remove surface debris. Avoid submerging the shoes in water; instead, use a mild soap and a damp cloth to wipe synthetic overlays.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration of the material.
- Compatibility: These trainers fit true to size for most adults, though those with wider feet may prefer a thin sock to maintain a comfortable fit.
