These shoes are designed for adult runners, specifically women, who are seeking cushioned support for an active lifestyle. While they offer excellent general support, individuals with specific pronation needs (e.g., severe overpronation) should consult a running specialist to ensure this model aligns with their biomechanics. The comfortable fit makes them suitable for a wide range of foot types.
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your Gel-Kayano 14:
Cleaning: Wipe down the mesh upper and sole with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap (e.g., dish soap diluted in water). Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes.
Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources (like radiators or dryers), which can damage materials.
Odor Control: Remove insoles after runs to allow both the shoe interior and insoles to air out. Consider using shoe deodorizers or cedar shoe trees.
Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place. Avoid cramming them into tight spaces, which can alter their shape.
