Most comfortable shoes I have ever worn -
I have wide flat feet that over-pronate. After standing or walking for a very short time, I would develop a lower back ache. I also had a problem with my performis muscle in my right leg which caused me a great deal of pain. After wearing these shoes for 2 days, my backaches and muscle pain completely went away. My feet are extremely hard to fit so I ordered several pairs of shoes in different sizes and these fit perfectly. I also have a problem with heel slippage in athletic shoes and the memory foam in the heel of this shoe is perfect. I plan on ordering this shoe in every color they come in. I love them and Zappos. I live in a small town with not many stores that sell wide shoes and without Zappos I never would have found these shoes. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.
Other shoes recommended by reviewer: I would try other Asics models.

Pretty comfortable shoe. No break in period needed. However it could do with a wee bit more cushioning.

I just started wearing these running shoes. For years I have been wearing Nike Air Structure Triax, which are less expensive and a fairly good shoe. I wanted to try these because of the new heel technology and cushioning. I wear orthotics and they fit well in this shoe. I have a wide forefoot and a narrow heel. This shoe is great for both. I feel like I have plenty of room in the toe box and a snug fit in the heel. They feel like they offer good stability and cushioning. Hopefully they will be worth the extra money in the end.

Best sneaker ever!
I tried on many other sneakers before I found the ASICS Gel-Kayano. They are extremely comfortable and give great support. I have a hard time finding sneakers due to wide feet and narrow heels. No problem with these sneakers! I've used them walk/jogging on pavement as well as gravel roads and trails - great support on all terrain. I would highly recommend this sneaker to anyone and will stick with this brand!

These shoes are comfortable and good support for a pronator and one who suffers at times from plantar fasciitis. I bought Asics because my 260 lb. husband can run in his without a problem.

Best running shoe ever!
This is the 4th year in a row I've updated my Asics Gel-Kayano. I have a pronation problem but this shoe has the best fit and support...say goodbye to plantar fasciitis and hello to fun running!

Half size too small -
I have ordered this same shoe for over 5 years and have been able to order the same size each time. I just ordered new ones and ended up having to order a half size up. This is a new color from previous ones so I don't know if that has anything to do with it. Love the shoes they feel great and are great for narrow feet.

Fabulous Pair of Running Shoes -
Not only do my feet feel comfy while pounding away the miles on the pavement, but they look spectacular! I over pronate and tend to buy Asics because of their sturdy heel. These are my 4th pair and did not disappoint. I tend to buy a 1/2 size up to allow room for my orthotics and plus, don't like pinched toes while I'm working out.

These are really cute -
This is probably my 15th pair of Asics. Since I discovered the pronation correction shoes in the Asics line I cannot believe the improvement in my knee pain- I rarely have pain or swelling anymore. Found these today in Plum/Lilac and they are a really good looking shoes! I was surprised that I had to buy a 1/2 size larger than I normally bought in any other Asics. Worth EVERY penny in my opinion.

Awesome if you need control -
I love these shoes -- but they're definitely for runners who need more control. I knew that and bought them anyway. (I need a more neutral-cushion shoe for running.) They're very comfortable to wear otherwise -- and so cute, too!

Another wonderful purchase!
I have had at least 8 pairs of Gel-Kayanos and they still are my favorite sneaker. I tend to pronate and they lend excellent support. They run true to size and take quite a beating. I highly recommend them.

Love the shoes -
I have been running in this brand and model for about 7 years and when the current pair wears out, I get a new pair. The shoe fits me perfectly. It feels like I am running in bedroom slippers right out of the box.

Superb fit -
Very flexible but ALSO supportive shoe; soft feeling "upper" material. Bought for walking and absolutely seems to correct all my imbalances and my knees are better. Can easily wear for entire day. Purchased a 1/2 size up and went w/ wide - provides excellent room in toe box. If you also prefer more room there AND in the area of the arch so that arch is not so defined, that will work for you. One of two shoes I could wear when I smashed my big toe! The Asics Bree is the other. This is not as "wide" as the New Balance "wide" very much more true to size. If I could wish for something else in this shoe, it would be for a bit more cushion, but I like that as I get "older". The nice flexible upper will make this shoe one of most comfortable you can wear; Asics also made it great looking. Pronators rejoice!

Read on if you have flat feet, mild/no pronation - These shoes work great if you are running long and easy. I have used Brooks in the past, but for longer distances I started having knee problems and posterior shin splints. I changed to the Kayanos and the problem is solved. They feel plush and cushy. You may want to rotate with something lighter for shorter runs (under 5 miles) as the Kayanos are a bit on the heavy side. But if you want to go on a run longer than 10 miles, consider the Kayanos. I would highly recommend these shoes if you are a heavier runner with flat feet and mild to no pronation.

I would definitely buy another pair of these running shoes - I love they way they fit, true to size. And I love the way they look. Lots more cushioning than any other ASICS I have had. I think these are more comfortable than my Brooks that I normally wear for running.

Finally - a perfect running shoe.
My younger sister recommended Asics to me after her fellow colleagues suggested the brand to her. She loves them and highly recommends them. I took her advice and she was absolutely right. Not only do these sneakers feel very comfortable when wearing them, they also have significant support in the soles and at the forefront of the shoe. When I run, I tend to apply a lot of pressure on the front of my foot; therefore, needing a lot of support in the front of the shoe. These Asics Gel-Kayano 14 do the job! I love wearing these shoes to run, to work out, and even to take care of errands. However, I recommend trying on at least 2 pairs of the same exact size in this shoe as I have found that each pair (even if it is the same size) fits differently. I remember trying on one pair in size 7M and it was too narrow at the front. I tried the other size 7M pair and it fit much better.

They're not worth the high price!
I overpronate on my left foot and went to a specialty running store to ask them what shoes I should buy. They recommended these and I decided to buy them through Zappos because they didn’t carry my size at the store. I run/walk in them and get really sore knees and ankles. I even put Superfeet in them because I thought it would help... but it didn't. Even the foot that doesn't overpronate hurts still. There is not very much support in these shoes despite what the description claims. BUT I was very satisfied with Zappos.com; I literally received my order the day after I placed it! Wonderful customer service... highly recommend this site!

Third Pair is the Charm -
As a first-time long distance runner, it has taken me a while to find the right pair - three tries to be exact. The Kayano’s have a great balance of cushioning and support. I have a heavier body so it's been difficult to find that shoe that can provide the support my arches need over a long run while cushioning the blow of each step. In addition, I have wide-set feet so the Kayano’s in a wide D is my dream come true.
My Reebok Road Plus KFS was a descent pair, but was still a touch constricting at the base of where the laces start - they have a decorative band that doesn't allow for the shoe to stretch and widen. Granted Reeboks are roomy to start with, but when you're getting into 10 miles or more - it's a detail that started to bug me. The Kayano’s flatten out at the widest point just fine.
The Saucony Progrid Hurricane is a great soft shoe, and lasted a whole 3 months before it completely gave out. My foot felt hyper extended with each point of contact. Bottom line: the shoe lacked support.

Just as I expected!!!
Had Asics before and knew what I was in for. Only the best fit from the first time I placed on my feet till I was through working out. I am a large lady that overpronates and they are the best I've tried for comfort and no ankle turning. I also bought the 1130's for my daughter and she had the same experience I had for not having new blisters, which she is a tender-foot. Only GREAT is what I can say.

Fit is pretty much right on. If between sizes, go for the 1/2 size larger. Zappos service is its usual outstanding.

Great shoe! I am a nurse and work 12 hour shifts. I am on my feet for 11.5 of the 12 hours. This is my second pair. I need a shoe that has a lot of "impact absorption" and so that is why I purchase running shoes. I did not need to break these in and wore them to work the day after receiving them. My feet felt GREAT!! Thank-you Asics and Zappos!

Incredible -
I have always been a loyal NB person (1981) and was on my way out to pay for my NB 768 which I thought felt great, when the shoe sales person asked me if I cared to look at the Asics Kayano 14. I had already tried on several pairs of shoes by different makes and was sold on the NB. Wow I was instantly surprised at the comfort level not to mention the extremely good looks. These shoes fit like a glove around every part of my foot. Of course the minute I got home I went for a two mile run and let me tell you I felt like I could go forever.
