FAQs
Is the ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 suitable for running?
While it features performance-grade cushioning, this model is positioned as a lifestyle trainer. It is best suited for walking and everyday activities rather than intensive athletic training.
Does the shoe run true to size?
Yes, the Gel-Kayano 14 typically fits true to standard UK sizing. If you have particularly wide feet, you may find the snug nature of the synthetic overlays requires a slight break-in period.
How do I clean the white portions of the shoe?
Use a gentle shoe cleaner and a soft brush. Avoid using bleach, which can yellow the materials or damage the synthetic bonding.
What is the purpose of the TRUSSTIC system?
The TRUSSTIC system is a molded component under the midfoot that adds rigidity, helping to prevent the shoe from twisting excessively and providing a stable platform.
Are these shoes unisex?
The specific model mentioned is listed as unisex, offering a wide range of sizing options suitable for various adult foot shapes.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the synthetic overlays
Use shoe trees when not in use to help the upper maintain its shape and reduce natural stress creases.
Visible dirt on white mesh
Apply a specialized sneaker cleaning solution with a soft cloth, dabbing gently rather than rubbing, which can push dirt deeper into the mesh fibers.
Slippage during wear
Check the lace tension; use the final eyelet for a 'runner's loop' lock to secure the heel if you feel your foot moving inside the shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are standard lace-up trainers, no complex setup is required. When choosing your size, note that these models follow standard UK sizing conventions. To maintain the condition of your Gel-Kayano 14:
- Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt or dust from the mesh.
- Spot clean synthetic overlays using a damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent.
- Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can damage the GEL cushioning units and the adhesive on the synthetic overlays.
- Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct sunlight or high-heat sources to prevent the materials from warping or discolouring.
