FAQs
What type of activities are these trainers best suited for?
The Asics Gel-Kayano 12.1 Trainers are versatile and suitable for a range of activities including running, gym workouts, cross-training, and general fitness. They offer good cushioning and support for both impact and stability.
How do I clean my Asics Gel-Kayano 12.1 Trainers?
To clean, use a damp cloth to wipe the exterior. For interior cleaning, a soft brush with a mild soap solution can be used, followed by air drying away from direct heat.
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The product description does not specify width options. It is recommended to check available size charts or try them on to determine if the fit is appropriate for wide feet.
What does the 'Gel-Kayano 12.1' designation mean?
This designation refers to the specific model and version of the Asics Gel-Kayano series. 'GEL' indicates the presence of Asics' signature GEL cushioning technology, and '12.1' represents the iteration of the design.
What is the main advantage of the FLUIDRIDE technology?
FLUIDRIDE technology in the midsole provides a combination of lightweight cushioning and responsiveness, offering a smooth and efficient ride during movement.
Can I wear these trainers in wet conditions?
While the trainers offer some protection, they are not waterproof. The mesh underlays may allow water to enter in very wet conditions. It is best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or puddles.
What is the warranty period for these trainers?
Warranty information is typically provided by the retailer. Please check the original purchase details or contact the seller for specific warranty terms.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure the correct size is being worn. Break in the shoes gradually with short periods of wear. Check for any internal seams or debris causing irritation.
Reduced cushioning effect
The GEL and FLUIDRIDE technologies are designed for longevity, but their responsiveness can decrease with extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes if they have been heavily worn.
