- Light Active Lifestyles: Suitable for walking, light errands, and standing for extended periods. They are not recommended for competitive running or high-impact sports.
Care & Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your GEL-Kayano 14 shoes:
- Cleaning the Upper: For textile and synthetic leather, gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes that could damage the materials.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
- Odor Control: Remove insoles periodically to air them out. Using shoe deodorizers or baking soda can help maintain freshness.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Addressing Scuffs: For synthetic leather areas, a suitable shoe cleaner or protector can help minimize visible scuffs.
