Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 shoes:
Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the mesh and polyurethane overlays with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a small amount of mild soap mixed with water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage materials.
Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can deform materials.
Odor Control: If odors develop, remove insoles and allow both the shoes and insoles to air out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside when not in use.
Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash your shoes, as this can damage the GEL technology, adhesives, and upper materials.
