FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?

The fit can vary. While they offer good overall support, individuals with significantly wide feet might find them snug. It is recommended to try them on if possible or consult sizing guides for a better fit assessment.

How do I clean the mesh parts of the shoe?

Use a soft brush or a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap to gently clean the mesh. Rinse with a clean damp cloth and allow to air dry.

What is the purpose of the TRUSSTIC support unit?

The TRUSSTIC support unit is designed to provide midfoot integrity and torsional rigidity, enhancing stability and support during movement.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, cushioning, and structural integrity of the shoe.

What is the primary intended use for the GEL-KAYANO 14?

The GEL-KAYANO 14 is designed as a running shoe, offering significant cushioning and support. It is also popular for casual wear due to its comfort and distinctive style.

How does the GEL™ technology enhance performance?

GEL™ technology is strategically placed in the midsole to absorb shock upon impact, providing a softer landing and reducing stress on the joints.

Are these trainers waterproof?

These trainers are not waterproof. The mesh upper is designed for breathability, which means they will not keep water out.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If the issue persists, consider if the size is correct or if break-in time is needed. Loosen the laces before putting them on.

Traction is reduced on wet surfaces

Clean the rubber outsole to remove any embedded dirt or debris. Note that rubber outsoles can have reduced grip on very wet or slippery surfaces regardless of cleanliness.

Discoloration of materials

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean with appropriate methods as outlined in the care instructions.
