FAQs

What is GEL technology in ASICS shoes?

ASICS GEL technology is a silicone-based cushioning material strategically placed in key areas of the sole (typically the heel and forefoot) to absorb shock during impact, providing superior comfort and reducing stress on your joints and muscles.

What is the Trusstic System and its purpose?

The Trusstic System is a lightweight, molded component located under the arch of the shoe. Its purpose is to provide enhanced stability, reduce the overall weight of the sole unit, and help maintain the shoe's structural integrity, preventing excessive twisting during movement.

Are these shoes suitable for serious running or marathons?

The Gel-Kayano 14 is a classic runner design, offering comfort and stability that is well-suited for light running, walking, and casual wear. While it provides excellent cushioning and support, for competitive or high-mileage modern running, you might consider ASICS's latest performance running models that incorporate more advanced technologies for those specific demands.

How do I choose the correct size for ASICS Gel-Kayano 14?

This particular model is a UK size 10. We always recommend measuring your foot length and comparing it to ASICS's official size chart. If possible, try them on to ensure a comfortable fit, allowing a thumb's width space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe for optimal comfort and toe splay.

Can I machine wash my ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 trainers?

No, it is strongly advised not to machine wash your trainers. Machine washing can severely damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe, potentially compromising its comfort and durability. Always follow the hand cleaning instructions provided in the 'Care' section.

What kind of activities are these shoes best for?

The ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 is ideal for a range of activities including casual everyday wear, urban strolling, light walks, and as a stylish lifestyle shoe. Its combination of comfort, stability, and retro aesthetics makes it a versatile choice for daily use where comfort and style are prioritized.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable after initial wear.

Ensure you have the correct size; this model is UK 10. Allow for a brief break-in period, as new shoes sometimes need a few wears to conform to your foot's shape. Check your lacing; loosening them slightly can improve comfort. Always wear appropriate socks.

Foot feels unstable or lacking sufficient support during activity.

Verify the lacing is snug but not overly tight, ensuring good midfoot lockdown. The Trusstic System is designed for stability, but individual foot types vary. If persistent instability is an issue, consider consulting a specialist for arch support needs or gait analysis.

Unpleasant odor develops in the shoes after regular use.

Regularly air out your shoes after each use. Remove the insoles and let them dry separately. Use shoe deodorizers, cedar shoe trees, or sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside the shoes when not in use (remove before wearing).

Mesh upper appears dirty or stained from everyday use.

Gently clean the mesh with a soft brush or cloth dampened with a mild soap solution. Avoid scrubbing aggressively to prevent damage to the material. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated sneaker cleaner, following its instructions carefully. Always air dry thoroughly.

Care

To maintain the longevity and appearance of your Gel-Kayano 14 trainers:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the mesh upper and synthetic overlays with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes that could damage the material. For tougher dirt on the sole, a soft brush can be used.
  2. Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can cause materials to warp or crack.
  3. Odour Control: After each use, remove the insoles to air them out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside when not in use (remember to remove before wearing).
  4. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving them in damp environments or direct sunlight for extended periods.
  5. Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash or tumble dry your trainers, as this can severely damage the materials, adhesives, and structural integrity of the shoe.
