Care & Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your Gel-Kayano 14 sneakers.
- Cleaning the Mesh Upper: Gently brush off loose dirt using a soft-bristled brush. Mix a small amount of mild soap (like dish soap) with cold water. Dampen a cloth or sponge with the solution and gently wipe the mesh sections. Avoid saturating the material.
- Cleaning the Rubber Sole: Use the same mild soap solution and a cloth or soft brush to clean the rubber sole. For stubborn dirt, a slightly stiffer brush can be used.
- Drying: After cleaning, wipe away excess moisture with a clean, dry cloth. Allow the sneakers to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources, which can damage materials.
- Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place when not in use. Stuffing them with crumpled paper can help maintain their shape.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use harsh detergents, bleach, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the materials and color of the sneakers.
- Rotation: Rotating your sneakers with other footwear can allow them to air out and recover, prolonging their lifespan.
