FAQs
Is this shoe suitable for long-distance running?
The Gel-Kayano Trainer Evo is intended for lifestyle and casual use. For marathon training, we recommend dedicated ASICS performance running models.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
This model is sized in UK 8.5. We recommend checking your foot length against a standard UK size chart to ensure a proper fit.
Can these shoes be put in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can compromise the adhesives and structural components of the shoe.
Are the materials breathable?
Yes, the trainer uses lightweight textile materials designed to allow airflow during daily wear.
Does this shoe provide arch support?
Yes, it retains the fundamental stability features of the Gel-Kayano series, which includes ergonomic arch support.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel too tight or restrictive
Loosen the lacing system at the eyelets to allow for more volume across the midfoot.
Surface marks on the red mesh
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution and a soft-bristled brush to gently spot-clean.
Insole slippage
Remove the insole, ensure the base is clean, and re-seat it firmly, or replace with a generic performance insole.
