FAQs

How often should I replace my GEL-KAYANO 20 shoes?

Generally, replace your shoes every 300-500 miles, or when the cushioning starts to break down. This depends on your running style and the surfaces you run on.

Can I use these shoes for trail running?

While the GEL-KAYANO 20 is designed for road running, it may perform on light trails. However, it's not specifically designed for rugged terrains; dedicated trail running shoes are better suited.

How do I determine my correct shoe size?

Measure your foot length and refer to the ASICS size chart. It's often helpful to try the shoes on at the end of the day when your feet are most swollen.

What is the purpose of the FLUIDFIT caging?

The FLUIDFIT caging provides a secure, adaptive fit that conforms to the shape of your foot, enhancing comfort and support.

How do I clean the mesh upper?

Use a soft brush and mild soap. Gently scrub the mesh and rinse thoroughly. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally.

What is the GUIDANCE TRUSSTIC system?

The GUIDANCE TRUSSTIC system enhances gait efficiency and provides structural integrity in the midfoot, contributing to a smoother run.

Are the GEL-KAYANO 20 shoes suitable for flat feet?

Yes, they provide good support and stability, which can be beneficial for individuals with flat feet.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight.

Ensure you have the correct size. Try loosening the laces or consider a wider fit if available.

GEL cushioning feels less effective.

This could indicate the shoe's cushioning is worn out. It may be time for a replacement.

Mesh upper is damaged.

Avoid sharp objects. If the damage is minor, consider patching it with a fabric adhesive. Significant damage may require shoe replacement.
