How to Style ASICS Gel Kayano 14 Cream Review & On Feet
Cool 😊
Thanks, ya definitely a cool piece to style!
I always get confused by nike sizing. Ihave air force '07 they are UK10 They fit perfectly. I got alpha trainer 5 later they're UK9. I wanna buy these. Which size should I buy? They don't have initiators in nearby stores. What do you think I should buy what size
I recommend your normal Nike size, I think these do fit True to size. I would go with your air force size if you like that fit. I did go with my Air Force size as well.
Thanks mate cool vid
Glad you enjoyed it! More content OTW!
I got the silver pair during the summer as birthday gift for those wanting these your in for a surprise they’re really comfy I got mine from kohls for 80$
Ya I wear them to the gym all the time, the comfort for a under $100 shoe did surprise me as well, and look they will hold up nicely.
Is it comfortable for gym movments?@@OnTheWaveKicks
I actually use the silver colorway for the gym and I think it works just fine
Can you use them for outdoor use
@@SA-iu7xj Of course, you can wear them really however you like. Do you mean like hiking / some kind of outdoor activities?
Thanks for the review
No problem, glad you liked it! More content OTW!
Is the finish quality good? Based on past experience with other Nike products, I tend to be wary of purchasing
The finish quality on the Nike Initiator is solid for its price point. The materials and construction feel durable, and I didn’t notice any major flaws in stitching or glue marks. It’s not a premium sneaker, but for a budget-friendly running shoe, it holds up well. If you’ve had concerns with Nike’s quality in the past, I’d say this one is on par with their mid-range offerings. Hope that helps!
How's the fit and sizing? Is it wide foot friendly?
Sizing I would say this fits true to size, this shoe isn’t necessarily fit for wide footers, I would say a standard foot would fit fine. But I would try them on in store if possible. You could also order your size and a half size up as well and return just to be sure. Hope that helps!
Vomero 5 would fit wide foot.
@ thanks for the insight as I do not own Vomeros…yet!
do you think the rubber material all over the shoe and the “cracked” skin material will deteriorate overtime?
All shoes will deteriorate over time, but I would say since these are pre-aged you would want to be more careful with them for sure. But just as any shoe, if you take care of them then they should last you a long time. Hope this helped!
🔥🔥
Appreciate your support!
Not gonna lie, these dont look that good with slimmer.straight pants. They look and blend more seemless with a wider opening pant that puddles over. Otherwise they like disproportionate and goofy. Also, was this meant to be Abercrombie advert or something
Appreciate your feedback! Since this video i have purchased more baggy style pants, as i also feel it does look better. But not an ad, i just genuinely like Abercrombie, and decided to just show off some of those pieces since they are more available compared to some of my other clothes.
Definitely an underrated shoe, just copped the same colorway lol👌
You picked a good one, very versatile, it goes with everything! I’m dropping a review on this sneaker next week!
On feet?
Currently working on a whole review /on foot/style tips, so stay tuned! Should be out next week 👌🏼
Exactly like we didn’t need this 😂
@@Dan-hg1gjfull review on my channel now , has on feet looks
Full review on my channel is out now with on feet looks
For the bombas and stance socks which is closer to the regular Nike dri fit socks?Loved the review
I think if you like the Nike Dri Fit socks, then you would like the stance socks a lot. I personally like them more. The Bombas are are great as well but more if you are going for the no show look. Appreciate your comment, stay tuned for more reviews!
Which do you think is thicker? Because I want a sock for daily wear, like not a to be too warm for summer but also not too light for winter.I was forward for the stance or bombas socks.
@ I think the stance socks are very thin actually, bombas do have some thickness if you want the no show look. But I think the socks of the bunch I go to for everyday are actually the Gold Toe socks but I like the crew sock look. The socks from target, the good fellow socks are thin as well, so you definitely can’t go wrong, I think it just depends on your price point
Like how thin because I want something similar to the Nike dri fit socks.Appreciate the reply tho.
@@jamesross5881 dang I would say the closest in the list would be the gold toes, the protecs or the sports would be better for moisture wicking. Thicker on these would be the sport as well. I prefer the sports in general with the yellow tie for casual and for athletics
Kayano 14 is best model ever.. thinking of this colorway after having the JJJound pair. Solid vid bro Thanks!
Thank you! This colorway a sleeper 🔥 The JJJounds are dope tho!
I bought 2 different pairs. Definitely a steal and good looking sneaker.
I totally agree, I have a full review and styling video coming soon, it’s in the works, so stay tuned!
Your edits 🔥
Thank you! 🙏🏼
What’s your Favorite Colorway? Comment down below ⬇️
Light bone 🔥
Fye 🔥🔥🔥
A must cop 🔥😮💨
Cool, thanks for the overview
No problem! Thanks for watching!
What about sizing? My 1130’s are size 10.5. What size should I buy?
I think they both fit True to Size, so 10.5 for the Kayano’s should be good.
I just bought them and i like those
A very dope and unique shoe 🔥 Hope you like em!
Nike says go down half a size due to them fitting larger rather than true to size..did they slip when you went w your regular size?
I say stick to your true to size, you don’t want room or it will be sliding in the back. I usually wear 9.5 for casual shoes but went to a 9 and didn’t have issues. I personally returned and reordered to get the right size, you could order both sizes and return to Nike if you are still worried about sizing.
Are these easy to style?
Ya, since these are a neutral colored shoe you can style these with a lot of pants, or even shorts. I do have some styling tips on the video I made for another cream pair of the Gel Kayano 14, check it out!

The new burgundy nike acg rufus that’s coming out I find very cool.
Just took a look, they go crazy 🔥
I fuck with this, you got a sub
Appreciate it, more content OTW!
hey great video!! I bought these, but I feel that the heel slips out a bit too much for me. I got a 9,5 like usual, do you think that going half size down would make it better or that it's just how the shoe is made and I will always have that feeling on the heel? thanks man and continue with these videos!!
I had the same exact issue! So I actually returned the 9.5 and went to my true size a 9, and that helped with the slipping issues I think going down a half size will help. And appreciate the comment! More content on the way! ❤️🙏🏼
Your content is really good quality you deserve so much more followers. Continue like that and I’ve ofc subscribed 🔥🔥
I really appreciate your comment! More content on the way!
@@OnTheWaveKicksbtw did you continue wearing them ? If yes, are they still comfortable ?
@@lightyagami-vi5xm I’ve had them for over a month now, and it’s still very comfortable.
@ and did they creased or took a weird form or they’re still pretty much brand new ? Sorry for all of those questions but i really want to be sure before buying them
Mine haven’t creased
🔥🔥
Can you style these with a black outfit. Or a couple more outfits please. I’m considering these for my husband.
Watch the Full Review on my Channel for some styling tips, it was just uploaded as well. I did style the shoe with a Black Pair of denim and some other outfits on my full review. These look great with black pants as well! But I’ll just say these are a great gift for your husband! He will love them!
@@OnTheWaveKicksThanks for some reason the short showed up in my recommendations first. Now the full video is showing up. Thanks again.
@@Unbought No problem, hope it helped! Maybe I’ll do some more shorts on outfit ideas!
SUBSCRIBED keep Grinding finna buy 2 pair Club Cs. Made my whole Middle School wear them 😂😂😂😂😂❤
Thanks man! Sorry just seeing this! The Club Cs are dope, Middle School Drip on point 🔥😂
@OnTheWaveKicks 💯💯💯❤️
I actually been looking at them and it's definitely hard to choose but I mainly started wearing socks depending on what sneaker I might wear sometimes the quarter socks if I wear the low sneakers or crew depending if the sneakers are high
Appreciate your comment! Ya definitely whatever you’re feeling that day with your particular sneaker is always the way to go!
Full Review on my Channel on the AE1 Ascent and the AE 1 Low MX Grey! 🔥
I like the cinematic edits! Great video! Not an adidas fan at all but the video made me reconsider!
Some of your videos appeared as recommended to me, I'm Brazilian and looking to improve my style, clothes, etc. I prefer international content because trends always happen abroad first, before arriving here. Your channel deserves many more subscribers, seriously. I was scared to see how few people consumed the content and didn't subscribe. Congratulations, keep up the good work, God bless
@joaofernando7307 Thank you so much! I'm new to content creating so each video I just try and improve from the last. This comment means a lot! Glad you enjoy my content, more video's OTW so stay tuned!
@@OnTheWaveKicks Do you prefer the length of the Dickies or Stance Quarter Socks? Which one is longer? What shoe size are you and what sock size did you get in each?
@@thad8909they’re both quarter socks so they’re both pretty much the same length, I think it depends on price point and feel you want. I choose dickies a lot since they’re non branded. The stance have a nice soft hand feel but and on the thin side, and they also give a more sporty look in my opinion. They’re more expensive as well so keep that in mind. But you really can’t go wrong.
😍😍😍
🔥 🔥🔥
The best socks for foot health are toe socks. Prevents bunions.
Thanks for your comment, I’ll look into those! TY!
bought a pair of green silver colors
@@chatsifieds those are dope too! Hope you like em!
These are clean bro. Also congrats on UA-cam. Keep grindin bro
Appreciate the comment! The grind won’t stop 👌🏼 I already got some Products and shoes to Review/Style for July, and will try and get videos out more consistently after that so stay tuned for more!
Dad shoes. Swag
It’s the movement right now 🔥
thinking about picking these up 🔥
Size?
@@nataliefavila3417 I wear a 9.5, true to size worked for me
@@itspardi Definitely a dope pair, I highly recommend! Keep up the content as well 🔥👌🏼
These look fire & suede is smooth🔥 How's the quality?
This shoe is for sure slept on, materials and suede is really nice and makes this shoe feel premium 👌🏼 Thanks for the comment!

Ya a really dope pair in hand, but luckily there are so many colorways to choose from. Appreciate the comment!

sleeperss
Definitely 🔥
How it compared with 2002r and vomero 5? Currently I'm using 2002r protection pack and it below my expectations for the comfort. Yesterday I'm trying vomero 5 at the store and feels comfortable for the in and outsole (bouncy). Wondering about this kayano 14. Love the colorway tho
I haven’t picked up either of those 2 sneakers yet, but I have been thinking about copping, so stay tuned for more videos. And maybe I can do a full comparison video on the 3!
@@OnTheWaveKicksthanks for the reply! Anyway I realized that they're using canvas instead of the mesh for this model. How's the comfort and breathability for this model comparing to the regular kayano 14?
Acics nyc gel is so comfyyyyyy But vomero 5 hand done comfy wise is the best
Vomero5( I don’t own. This but I tried ag the shop ) consult afford kt ASICS nyc gel( have a pair bought on sale ) Kyano14 No 1960 ( purchase on sale as well so good ) No 2002 in the order Ur welcome
@@Semaj.18272 wow thanks so much for the insight!
🔥🔥🔥🔥dope video need to buy me a pair
TY 🙏🏼 Yes definitely a dope sneaker. Stay tuned for more 🔥
