FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
The GEL-KAYANO 12.1 offers good cushioning, but they are primarily designed for general training and casual wear. For dedicated long-distance running, specific running shoes with advanced support features might be more appropriate.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Use a soft brush or cloth with a mixture of cool water and mild detergent. Gently scrub the mesh and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Allow to air dry completely.
What is the main benefit of the GEL inserts?
The GEL inserts are designed to absorb shock efficiently, providing cushioning and reducing the impact on your feet and joints during wear.
Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?
The porous mesh upper provides breathability but may not offer significant protection against heavy rain or wet conditions. They are best suited for dry to mildly damp environments.
What does FLUIDRIDE cushioning mean?
FLUIDRIDE is an ASICS cushioning technology that provides a combination of bounce-back and durability, offering a lightweight and comfortable feel underfoot.
How do the synthetic overlays contribute to the shoe?
The synthetic overlays provide structure and support to the upper, helping to cradle the foot and maintain the shoe's shape.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them for short periods initially to allow the materials to conform to your foot shape. Ensure you have the correct size; consider trying a half-size larger if persistent tightness occurs.
Reduced grip on surfaces
Clean the rubber outsoles to remove any dirt or debris that may be affecting traction. Check for excessive wear on the outsole tread.
Discomfort during activity
Ensure the lacing is adjusted properly. If discomfort persists, consider if the shoe is suitable for the specific activity or if a different insole might be beneficial.
