Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Gel-Kayano 32 trainers, follow these guidelines for maintenance and care:
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, walk in them for a few short sessions before attempting long-distance runs to allow the foam to adapt to your stride.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush after runs. If they become muddy, hand wash using mild soap and lukewarm water. Do not submerge them completely in a washing machine, as this can degrade the foam and adhesive.
- Drying: Air dry only. Keep away from direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as high heat can warp the midsole and damage the mesh material.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the rubber outsole and the responsiveness of the gel components.
