FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the GEL-Kayano 20?
The primary benefit is its structural cushioning capability, designed to provide comfort and support for running longer distances and extended daily wear.
Are these trainers suitable for pronation?
Yes, the GUIDANCE TRUSSTIC Support System is designed to promote efficiency in the gait cycle and provide stability, which is beneficial for individuals who overpronate.
How do I clean my GEL-Kayano 20 trainers?
Clean the exterior with a soft brush or a damp cloth. Avoid using strong detergents or submerging the shoes in water. Allow them to air dry naturally.
What materials are used in the GEL-Kayano 20?
The trainers feature a Mesh Upper, Leather Overlays, FLUIDFIT Cage, GEL™ Technology Cushioning, GUIDANCE TRUSSTIC Support System, and a Rubber Outsole.
Can these be worn for everyday casual use?
Yes, their design blends functional capabilities with an architectural aesthetic, making them suitable for everyday experiences beyond just running.
What does the FLUIDFIT Cage do?
The FLUIDFIT Cage is designed to offer a secure and adaptive midfoot lockdown, providing a comfortable and stable fit.
How long can I expect the cushioning to last?
The lifespan of the cushioning depends on usage. For optimal performance and support, it's generally recommended to replace running shoes after 300-500 miles of use or when the cushioning feels significantly diminished.
Troubleshooting
Unusual squeaking sound
This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers. Try removing the insole and allowing the shoes to air dry completely. If the sound persists, it might be internal.
Reduced cushioning or support over time
The GEL™ cushioning and midsole foam naturally compress with extensive use. For optimal performance, consider replacing trainers after significant mileage (typically 300-500 miles) or when signs of wear are apparent.
Poor traction on wet surfaces
The rubber outsole provides good traction on most surfaces, but performance on very wet or slippery surfaces may be reduced. Ensure the outsole is clean from debris that could affect grip.
