FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the ASICS Gel-Kayano 20 Trainers?

The primary purpose is to provide structural cushioning and support for runners, particularly for longer distances. They are also suitable for everyday wear due to their functional design.

How do I determine the right size?

Refer to the ASICS sizing chart and measure your foot. Given this is a specific UK size 10, ensure this matches your measurements. Trying them on is recommended if possible.

Are these shoes suitable for trail running?

These trainers are designed primarily for road running and general training. The rubber outsole provides traction, but they may not offer the specialized grip or protection needed for aggressive trail running.

Can the insoles be replaced?

Yes, the insoles are typically removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics or new insoles if needed.

What does the GUIDANCE TRUSSTIC Support System do?

This system enhances stability by controlling torsion and maintaining the structural integrity of the midfoot, helping to guide the foot through a more efficient gait cycle.

How does the FLUIDFIT Cage enhance fit?

The FLUIDFIT Cage is designed to provide an adaptive, glove-like fit by stretching in multiple directions, accommodating the foot's natural movement.

What is the material composition of the upper?

The upper is constructed with a combination of a breathable Mesh Upper and durable Leather Overlays.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort during first wear

The trainers may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

The GEL™ Technology cushioning is designed for longevity but can feel less pronounced with extensive use. Consider cleaning the shoe and ensuring no debris is impacting the sole's flexibility.

Slipping sensation inside the shoe

Ensure the laces are tied securely and appropriately for your foot shape. The FLUIDFIT Cage is designed to adapt, but a proper lacing technique is crucial.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort and performance.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult males, with a specific UK size 10 fit in this variant. Designed primarily for running and athletic activities, but also compatible with casual wear.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cool water to gently clean the mesh and leather areas. Avoid harsh detergents.
  2. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Outsole: Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris.
  4. Insoles: If removable, the insoles can be hand-washed separately and air-dried.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
