Full details
The ASICS Gel Kayano 14 trainers are designed for adults seeking a blend of retro running aesthetics and modern comfort for everyday wear.

Troubleshooting
Colors appear different from online images.
Colors may vary slightly due to differences in display device calibration and lighting conditions during photography. Refer to the product description for primary and secondary color details.
Sizing feels slightly off.
