Asics is the only brand I will ever buy as I switched from Nike air max. They are hands down the most comfortable pair of shoes I have owned as I am a nurse and am on my feet most of the day. I got the extra wide and they are definitely true to their size. I had an issue with a defect in my previous pair and Asics stood by their product and replaced my shoes. I had the new pair in less than a week. They truly stand by their products!!

This my third pair of the Gel Kayano running shoes. I love them. The fit is great and the arch support is very comfortable.

I've been running for 45 years and change shoes every six months. This pair of Kayanos I found to be a little snug, particularly in the toe. I would recommend that an additional 1/2 size could solve that problem although, now that they are broken in, they are feeling more comfortable.

About every 8 months to a year i have to buy new Kayanos or gt series. i have been buying them for almost 10 years now. I bought the Kayano 23's about 3 months ago and i feel like Asics finally nailed it. I always struggle with them ripping or the glue holding the rubber failing and it falling off. These Kayano 23's have proven to be a much tougher shoe. They finally got the right glue compound to hold the rubber on. They don't have super thin mesh on the side were sometimes my pinky toe makes a hole. All in all these are one of the best Asics shoes i have every put on my feet. so please don't mess up the 24's with bad glue or weak sides. Thanks!

I bought GEl-Kayano 23 based on the reviews which it had received, believe me I am NOT disappointed. It looks great, feels great (mega comfy) and is another winner for me a repeat buyer of ASICS. I haven't had these long enough to rate the durability therefore I will give it a mid range score for now - hopefully it will live up to the scores that other have given.

I purchase a pair of GEL-Kayano 23 shoes a couple of months ago and found them to be exceptional. The shoes were well-made; fit well and made running outside and on the treadmill a great experience. Online ordering was seamless; the tracking number enabled following the delivery and the shoes arrived on time. The overall experience was so good that I just ordered another pair.

My husband has several issues with his feet (plantar fasciitis, bone spurs) and went to a surgeon to remove the spurs. The Doc recommended he try Gel Kayanos first. They solved the problem. My husband is thrilled with the shoes -- literally the best pair of sneakers he's ever had. He is a police officer and coach and of course active all day long.I can't say enough about these shoes.

I have tried many pairs of shoes trying to find one narrow enough for my foot, and was relieved when this one fit perfectly. Please don't change it!

Bought my 6th pair of Asics Kayano directly online. Although I was very happy with my previous pairs, I read all the reviews before buying these. Some reviews mentioned a tighter toe-box, but I think actually the 23 is better than before. In terms of running, it is nothing short of what I expected. And I adore the color scheme, same as before: royal blue with fluo green accents.

excellent shoe to exercise-walk. My husband wears Kayanos since they first came out. What he noticed however,was that the 23 felt a half size smaller than the previous ones.

I tend to pronate when running, which has caused me some knee pain when running for longer periods. These shoes have literally resolved that problem for me. Also, the width is just right, some running shoes feel tight on me.

Worth the money! I think this shoe is very comfortable and has just the right amount of cushion. I have tried less expensive Asics wanting to save money but those shoes never performed like I had hoped. I wear them for running, walking and going to the gym.

I had considered giving up running because after a long run would always have moderate pain for 24-48 hours afterwards regardless of stretching and other treatments. I stumbled into a pair of Asics GT-2000 3 and everything changed. The Asics Gel Kayano 23 are even better for longer distances. I have run long distances in both, and this summer I will be crossing the finish line of my first Marathon in the also-stylish Gel Kayano. Only complaint, wish the laces were a bit longer, since I use the runner's lacing method at the top.

I purchased my Kayamo 23 as a Christmas present to myself. After a two day break-in these shoes fit like a glove and provide great support. I walk about 3 to 4 miles per day and at the end of each session my feet still feel great. These shoes are a super great investment that I am very pleased with. Thanks ASICS for a great quality product.

What can I say? They are Gel-Kayanos!! It's like putting your foot into a cloud!! They are supportive, soft, but not overly-soft. This is my 5th pair of Kayanos, and it won't be my last.

I am very pleased with this shoe. I will shortly purchase it in black as well I like it so much. This is my 4th pair of Asics' Kayano. This shoe always feels like it is carrying me along, not the other way 'round.

I bought these shoes for my 88 year old father-in-law. He loves them. Said his feet feel good and he's ready to go, go, go.
