Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Kahana® 6

First pair of Asics I've ever owned. Usually a New Balance guy. But these sneakers are the most comfortable I have ever owned. I'm sold and now will continue to purchase Asics. Great sneakers and even better price!

This is a great light weight shoe. Its been excellent on the rocky, rootie trail runs. Great traction.

Great shoe, perfect sizing, lightweight, and awesome color. Those who leave misleading reviews about size should try to cut their toenails. This advice is free of charge. I highly recommend this shoe.

The Kahana 6 is still an excellent shoe for my pronating feet. My new pair is the best so far though for me because the sole doesn't mark the white deck of my boat or the floor mat on the driver's side of my car with a the big black spot where the right heel is always at.

I have found this to be another comfortable ASICS GEL model that stands up to long hiking whether on the flats or in the hills. I had minimal break-in, it was ready to go.

Husband usually wears size 11 this shoe/brand felt a little narrow. We will get in wide in the future. Asics is always very comfortable shoe.

I love this shoe! Every time I try a different style and or brand I have foot pain issues. However with Aasics Kahana I have never had any issues. This is a great shoe to reun in.

I bought this for my husband, and he swears that they are the best running shoues he has ever used...says it feels like walking on clouds...is was a bit tight at first but he loosened the laces a bit..he is 11 but perhaps a 11.5 would have been better.

I am very happy with these shoes. They are comfortable to wear all day at work.

Tight in width the first few day of wear. Once broke in fit perfect. Very nice shoes.

My husband still runs at 81 (slow). I could not convince him to give it up. I purchased the Gel-Kahana and he is doing much better. He has not taken them off since they came. I will check and make sure he removes them at bed time. Just purchased a pair for myself to improve my balance while walking. Zappos has great customer service.

The sneakers look good. The red is not quite as neon as in the picture (a good thing for me). They fit exactly as expected for Asics. Arch support is okay, but the insole is removable, and I use superfeet anyway.

These are a supportive shoe...good foundation,but they also have a very cushioned heal- I would recommend them! less expensive then hi end models, but they have the same feel and quality. I wear size 9 1/2 and these fit correctly.

I had an old pair of GEL-Kahana's that I used for grass cutting. I found that they ended up being a lot more comfortable on my feet than the New Balance shoes I had recently bought, so I cleaned them up and started to wear them regularly. Then I found that you could still get this model and I couldn't wait to get them on my feet. They were everything I expected and my feet are very happy.

I've owned three pairs of these Kahana 6's, and they are my favorite running shoe ever. Makes me question the validity of the negative reviews.

Love the feel of these! I haven't been able to go running in them yet, but are great at the gym and just wearing all around! I have a feeling a run will be no problem (I don't run more than a 10K usually).

I have a 4E extra wide foot and Zappos always has a good selection & fast shipping. Very happy with previous Asics buys and these are great also. Wide enough, lightweight, and comfortable.

I was nervous to buy sneakers online without seeing them in person first but was pleasantly surprised when they arrived. Not only were they great for the price but I also ordered them three days before Christmas and they arrived at my door on Christmas Eve. Excellent shipping!

Amazing trail shoe that works great on pavement as well. So much cushioning in these shoes it's ridiculous. For anyone larger/taller (I'm 6'6" and 215 pounds) these work great to cushion your joints on any surface. Excellent product.

These shoes are great! My first pair of Asics and I couldn't be happier about the way they feel on my feet. I run a printing press in a warehouse with concrete floors and I'm on my feet for 9 hours a day. These were a nice find!!

I purchased the running shoes as a Christmas present. The recipient was very pleased. The shoes looked and felt nice. I, too, was very pleased with my purchase. I also was astounded as to the excellent time factor from ordering to receiving! That was very fast indeed! I would definitely recommend Zappos and will order from them again.

The Kahana has been my favorite running shoe since purchasing the 4. I'm a 200+ lb male who runs about 15 miles per week on road and trail. Pros: great on the trail but just as great on the pavement (just ran two 10k's in them - love how they grab the pavement and are not affected by rocks, leaves, or water); good for neutral runner who needs lots of cushioning; gel in forefoot is wonderful and hard to find in a lot of shoes. Cons: This is my second purchase of Kahana 6. The dark colored one I first bought was made in Vietnam and was too tight on the upper and laces too short. Disappointed and gave it less than 5 stars. When this new gray/lime came out, I bought it for the conservative color. It is made in Indonesia and fits perfectly. Not too tight and plenty of laces. May buy another pair of same color before Asics discontinues them. In short, the Kahana 6 in the gray/lime color gets 5 stars from me. BTW, Zappos gets 5 stars too.

This year I decided to enter "Tough Mudder 2013". I wanted to use a shoe that would give me comfort and able to have good traction on muddy trails. I decided to use ASICS Gel-Kahana 6, the results I got from this shoes were awesome, I would recommend them for Tough Mudder events.

I'm an Asics guy due. Running shoes have worked best for me for a variety of reasons. I have not been able to find any golf shoes that comfortably fit my old and unique feet. I'm using this GEL-Kahana for golf as well as winter walk/run with the dog and I LOVE them! Fit very good and built with support and stability.

I've tried other Asics versions, but the Kahana is still my favorite. No break in time required, immediately felt comfortable. I mostly use these for working out; first time I wore them, I walked for 3 miles at a good clip and didn't have any red spots, blisters, or soreness in my feet!
