Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Gel-Kayano 12.1 trainers, start by confirming your UK size (6.5 for this variant) to avoid rubbing or pressure points. These trainers are compatible with standard athletic insoles if you choose to swap them for medical-grade orthotics. To care for your shoes, wipe them down with a damp cloth after outdoor use to remove dirt. If they become soaked, air-dry them away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can compromise the integrity of the adhesive and the responsive foam cushioning.
