FAQs

Are these shoes good for everyday walking?

Yes, the GEL-Kayano 20 features substantial cushioning and support, making them comfortable for everyday walking and standing for long periods.

What is the main benefit of the GEL™ Technology Cushioning?

The GEL™ Technology Cushioning is designed to absorb shock effectively, providing a comfortable stride and reducing impact on your feet and joints during activities like running or walking.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by ASICS or your retailer. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to the UK sizing guide. Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash ASICS trainers. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method for cleaning to preserve the shoe's materials and structure.

What does the GUIDANCE TRUSSTIC Support System do?

This system enhances stability by controlling the twist of the shoe's sole. It provides midfoot support, contributing to a more efficient and stable gait cycle.

Are these trainers waterproof?

The GEL-Kayano 20 features a mesh upper with leather overlays and is not designed to be waterproof. They offer breathability but will not protect against heavy rain or submersion in water.

What is the material of the outsole?

The outsole is made of rubber, providing durability and reliable traction on various surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure you have the correct size and width. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for shorter periods initially. Check sock choice; thicker socks might provide more cushioning.

Traction is reduced

Clean the rubber outsole to remove any debris or mud that may be trapped in the tread pattern. Inspect the outsole for excessive wear; if significantly worn down, replacement may be necessary.

Mesh appears dirty

Use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap and water solution to gently scrub the mesh. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
