Care Instructions Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your ASICS GEL-Kayano 14 shoes:
Cleaning: Gently wipe the mesh and leather surfaces with a damp cloth. For tougher spots, a soft brush and a small amount of mild soap (like dish soap) mixed with water can be used. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators or hairdryers). Stuffing them with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, which can degrade materials over time.
Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash or machine dry your shoes, as this can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning.
Odor Control: If odors develop, remove the insoles and air them out. A sprinkle of baking soda inside the shoes overnight can help absorb odors.
