FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the GEL-Kayano 20 was originally designed for long-distance performance, this specific edition is largely intended for lifestyle and casual use.
How should I clean the leather?
Use a dry cloth for daily dust and a dedicated leather cleaner for deeper stains. Avoid washing machines.
Is the sizing consistent with other ASICS shoes?
Yes, ASICS typically maintains consistent sizing across its series, though the structured design of the Kayano 20 may feel more snug than lighter running models.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable if you need to insert your own custom orthotics.
What does the GUIDANCE TRUSSTIC system do?
It is a support system that enhances the shoe's structural integrity, providing stability during the mid-stance phase of your step.
Troubleshooting
Stiffness when new
The structured leather and support systems require a brief break-in period; try wearing them for short intervals indoors first.
Surface scuffing on leather
Use a leather conditioner or matching cream polish to buff out minor scuffs and maintain the material's integrity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ASICS GEL-Kayano 20 trainers, proper maintenance is essential. As these trainers are crafted from leather, avoid submerging them in water or using harsh detergents.
- Cleaning: Wipe away surface dust with a dry cloth. Use a specialist leather cleaner for stubborn marks, applying it with a soft brush.
- Drying: Never place leather shoes near direct heat sources like radiators, as this can cause the material to crack; allow them to air dry in a cool, ventilated area.
- Storage: Keep in a dry, cool place out of direct sunlight to prevent colour fading of the grey/beige tones.
- Compatibility: These trainers fit true to size for most adults, though those preferring a thicker sock for added warmth may consider a half-size increase.
