FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the GEL cushioning?

The GEL cushioning is designed to provide superior shock absorption, reducing impact on your feet and joints for enhanced comfort during wear.

Are these trainers suitable for long-distance running?

The GEL-Kayano 20 offers good cushioning and support, making them suitable for moderate running distances. For very long distances or specific running needs, consulting with a running specialist is recommended.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer or ASICS. Generally, ensure there is about a finger's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the rubber outsole offers some traction, the mesh upper is not waterproof. For heavy rain, it's advisable to opt for more water-resistant footwear. Ensure they are thoroughly dried if they get wet.

What does the GUIDANCE TRUSSTIC Support System do?

This system enhances midfoot structural integrity and stability, providing support during the gait cycle and helping to prevent excessive twisting.

How do the structural overlays contribute to the shoe's design?

The structural overlays provide support to the mesh upper, improving durability and fit while also contributing to the trainer's classic retro runner aesthetic.

What is the recommended way to clean the leather parts?

Use a damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner specifically designed for shoes. Wipe gently and allow to air dry. Avoid soaking the leather.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise from the sole

This can sometimes happen with new shoes. Try wearing them for a few more days. If it persists, a small amount of talcum powder inside the shoe or under the insole might help. Ensure the insole is properly seated.

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure you have the correct size and width. If the issue is with a specific area, consider using thicker socks or specialized insoles. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods.

Traction seems low on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole provides grip, but performance on very wet surfaces can vary. Ensure the outsole is clean and free of debris. For extreme conditions, consider shoes specifically designed for wet-weather traction.
