FAQs

How often should I replace my GEL-KAYANO 20?

Generally, replace your running shoes every 300-500 miles, depending on your running style and the wear and tear.

Can I use the GEL-KAYANO 20 for cross-training?

While the GEL-KAYANO 20 is primarily designed for running, it can be used for light cross-training activities.

How do I determine if I have overpronation?

You can get a gait analysis at a specialty running store or consult with a podiatrist.

Can I machine wash my GEL-KAYANO 20?

It is not recommended to machine wash your GEL-KAYANO 20. Hand wash with a soft brush and mild soap.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

How should I store my shoes when not in use?

Store your shoes in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat, to maintain their shape and integrity.

What kind of socks should I wear with these shoes?

Use running-specific socks that wick away moisture to prevent blisters and keep your feet dry.

Loosen the laces or consider going up a half size.
