The ASICS GEL-KAYANO 14 is engineered for versatile use, excelling in providing comfort and stability for daily wear, light athletic activities, and for individuals who appreciate a blend of heritage design with dependable performance. The GEL technology cushioning in the midsole acts as a superior shock absorber, significantly reducing impact forces during walking or light jogging, ensuring your feet remain comfortable throughout the day. This makes it an excellent choice for individuals who spend long hours on their feet or require extra joint protection.
The TRUSSTIC support system is strategically placed to enhance the shoe's structural integrity, preventing excessive twisting and promoting a more stable gait. This feature is particularly beneficial for overpronators or anyone seeking added stability during movement. The layered mesh and synthetic metallic leather upper not only delivers on the vintage aesthetic but also ensures breathability, helping to keep your feet cool and dry. Its sturdy construction means it can handle regular use while maintaining its shape and supportive qualities. This shoe is well-suited for fashion-conscious individuals who prioritize comfort and reliable support without compromising on iconic style.
The ASICS GEL-KAYANO 14 is designed for adults.
Sizing: This model is available in UK sizing, with this specific variant being UK 14. ASICS footwear generally fits true to size, but we recommend consulting the official ASICS size guide to ensure an accurate fit, especially if you are unsure.
Break-in Period: While offering comfort from the first wear, a short break-in period (typically a few wears) allows the materials to fully conform to your foot's unique shape, maximizing comfort.
To maintain the condition, appearance, and longevity of your GEL-KAYANO 14 shoes:
Cleaning the Upper: For the textile, mesh, and synthetic metallic leather upper, gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a small amount of mild soap diluted in water can be used sparingly. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or stiff brushes that could damage the materials.
Cleaning the Sole: The synthetic sole can be cleaned using a damp cloth or a soft-bristled brush to remove dirt and debris from the grooves.
Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight). Never machine wash or tumble dry your shoes, as this can severely damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning properties.
Storage: When not in use, store your shoes in a cool, dry place to prevent material degradation and maintain their shape.
