FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the Gel-Kayano 14 is rooted in performance running history, this specific version is optimized for everyday lifestyle and casual wear rather than long-distance athletic training.

How do I determine the correct size?

The Gel-Kayano 14 fits standard UK sizing. We recommend choosing the size you typically wear in other ASICS lifestyle trainers.

Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the leather, synthetic materials, and the internal structure of the shoe. Always clean by hand using a damp cloth.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper construction varies by specific variant, utilizing a mix of leather, faux leather, suede, or nylon depending on the colorway and model version.

Does the GEL cushioning lose its effect over time?

Like all footwear, the cushioning will undergo normal wear and tear based on frequency of use, but the GEL technology is designed for long-lasting durability and support.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the leather or synthetic upper

Use a shoe tree when not in use to help the shoe maintain its original shape.

Difficulty removing surface scuffs

Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft eraser designed for footwear, testing on a small, inconspicuous area first.

Laces coming untied during wear

Replace standard laces with textured athletic laces if additional friction is needed to hold the knot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines. As these shoes utilize leather and synthetic materials, avoid machine washing, which can damage the finish and adhesive layers. For day-to-day cleaning, wipe the uppers with a damp, soft cloth to remove dust and surface debris. If the leather gets wet, allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, like radiators, which can cause the leather to crack. When selecting your size, refer to standard UK sizing, keeping in mind that the structured upper offers a secure fit that typically runs true to size. For storage, keep them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
