FAQs

Is the ASICS Gel-Kayano 32 suitable for flat feet?

Yes, as a stability shoe, it is specifically designed to provide support for runners who need extra structure, which is often beneficial for those with flat feet or overpronation.

How long should these shoes last?

Depending on running intensity and surface, most runners get between 300 to 500 miles out of these trainers before the midsole cushioning begins to lose its effectiveness.

Can I use these for gym workouts?

While excellent for running, they are primarily designed for forward motion. They are suitable for light gym use but may feel too cushioned for heavy weightlifting where a flat, firm base is preferred.

Are they waterproof?

No, these shoes are designed for breathability. They will get wet in heavy rain, though the materials are designed to dry relatively quickly.

What is the weight of the shoe?

While the weight varies slightly by size, the Gel-Kayano 32 is classified as a standard-weight stability trainer, prioritizing protection and support over ultralight racing performance.

How do I choose the right size?

These shoes follow standard adult UK sizing. It is recommended to have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe to account for foot swelling during long runs.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure or discomfort on the top of the foot

Adjust the lacing technique to a parallel or loop style to relieve tension over the sensitive areas of the foot bridge.

Excessive dirt build-up in the mesh upper

Use a soft-bristled toothbrush to gently agitate the dirt while dry, then wipe clean with a slightly damp microfiber cloth.

Slipping inside the shoe during runs

Ensure the heel is fully seated in the molded counter and try using the final top eyelet (runner's knot) to lock the ankle in place.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior shock absorption for long-distance comfort
  • Highly durable outsole materials suitable for high-mileage road running
  • Secure fit provided by the molded heel counter
  • Excellent breathability for temperature management

Cons

  • Not intended for technical trail or off-road use
  • May feel bulkier compared to lightweight racing flats
  • Stability-focused design may be overkill for neutral runners

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Gel-Kayano 32 trainers, follow these guidelines:

  1. Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, wear them for short walks or light runs first to allow the foam to adapt to your foot shape.
  2. Lacing: Use the eyelets securely but avoid overtightening across the bridge of the foot to maintain circulation.
  3. Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. Use a damp cloth with mild soap for localized stains. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as high heat can damage the gel and foam integrity.
  4. Storage: Keep shoes in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures to prevent the rubber outsole from hardening or cracking.
