FAQs
Are the ASICS GEL-KAYANO 14 suitable for running marathons?
While the GEL-KAYANO 14 offers good cushioning, it is primarily designed for everyday wear and lighter training. For marathon running, ASICS offers specialized running shoes with advanced technologies optimized for high mileage and performance.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap to gently clean the mesh. Rinse the cloth and wipe away any soap residue. Allow the shoes to air dry completely.
Can I wear these shoes with orthotic inserts?
Yes, the ASICS GEL-KAYANO 14 generally accommodates aftermarket orthotic inserts. You may need to remove the original insole to make space.
What is the TRUSSTIC support system?
The TRUSSTIC system is a molded component located under the midfoot that provides stability by preventing excessive twisting or rolling of the foot.
Are these shoes true to size?
Generally, ASICS GEL-KAYANO 14 trainers are considered true to size. However, foot shape can vary, so trying them on or consulting a size chart is recommended.
What is the difference between the GEL-KAYANO 14 and other GEL-KAYANO models?
The GEL-KAYANO 14 specifically revives a 2000s design aesthetic, updating its materials and performance for contemporary use. Newer GEL-KAYANO models feature more recent technological advancements and design languages.
What materials are used in the GEL-KAYANO 14?
The upper primarily features breathable 'Cream' mesh with silver accents, while the midsole incorporates GEL technology and a TRUSSTIC support system.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you are wearing the correct size. Try wearing thinner socks or breaking them in with short periods of wear initially. The materials will mold to your foot over time.
Reduced cushioning or support over time
The GEL cushioning may have compressed. Consider replacing the shoes if they are heavily worn, typically after 300-500 miles of use or when comfort diminishes significantly.
Mesh upper shows signs of wear or tears
Avoid activities that could snag or tear the mesh. For minor fraying, a fabric glue might offer a temporary fix, but significant tears may require replacement.
Slight color transfer on socks
This can occur with new footwear, especially darker colors. Washing the shoes gently (as per care instructions) or wearing darker socks may help mitigate this.
