Customer Reviews ASICS Gel-Kayano® 23

Finally a color that doesn't roll your eyes back! These shoes are so supportive that I like to wear them year for more than my morning 3 mile walk. I have a narrowish foot so love the change in the toe box that other reviews have mentioned. I have two pairs of the blue version (Poseidon) - its a Great color combo.

Love this shoe-very light weight and comfortable!

I have been wearing Asics for at least 5 years, maybe more. I have always ordered one whole size bigger than I normally wear. So when people said they couldn't wear ASICS anymore because they had changed I was concerned. So a couple of "designs" ago I ordered a new pair. There was a slight different "learning curve" on walking, but it was not torturous! I still love the Gel-Kayano! I think I have been wearing since the "17" or maybe before. I am not a runner, but I am a daily walker, or do some kind of exercise. They have changed the inside material, so I hope it doesn't wear out at the heel. I also LOVE the colors there is to choose from. Overall, I am a satisfied customer!

love this shoe. Fits like my other ASICS. Toe is slightly narrower, but fits great for an average foot. I always go up a 1/2 size for my orthotics.

Perfect stability shoes for running! True to size. Color is awesome!

Wearing a half size larger (from 8.5 to 9), not sure if that is the sizing of the shoe or the fact that my feet are spreading because I generally wear clogs. I love the Kayano 23, very comfy.

I love Asics shoes & have always worn size 7 1/2 in that brand, but the toe box in this style is a little narrow, so I returned it & ordered a size 8. The 8 feels much better. Thanks Zappos!

I've been buying Kayano's for years and always get the same size, 7.5. Prior to this pair, they always fit great straight out of the box. This time though they were way too tight around the toe box. The top and sides of the shoe actually hit my toes. The rest of the shoe fit well so if I had ordered a size up the ankle would probably be too loose. Very disappointing and a hassle to deal with when you're waiting for shoes in the mail and then waiting for the return to process. I'm sorry but I can't go guessing whether a shoe is "true to size." I am buying my next pair in a store where I can try them on.

I love these, however, I just looked at the bottoms and only had them two months - they're really worn, Ill be lucky if I get another month out of them. The tops are fine, Ive never had a pair of Asics that the bottoms wore out so quickly.

I have read all the reviews on this shoe. I have worn these shoes for 7 years and found the Kayana 23 to be just as comfortable as in the past styles. The toe box was not too tight for me. I love the colors and the fit. I would recommend this shoe.

We love asics shoes. These shoes are very comfortable, especially given the fact that they are designed specifically for overpronation. I did need to order a half a size larger as these run a bit narrow. I wore a brand-new pair of shoes on a trip without breaking them in and did not have any issues. Great shoes.

I do not run. I wear these shoes daily for support . A women's size 13 in a shoe that offers stability for my pronation is difficult to find. They are are closer in size to a 12. I love the color and style. This is my second of Kayano.

My high school daughter uses these for XC. Very supportive, good cushion. In the heavy side but that expected since they have so much support which is needed when putting in so many miles per day. She prefers wide shoes when running for more time space. These shoes seemed narrower even in wide. Ordered up a half size even in wides

Got this pair for training (Disney Marathon). I'm prone to blisters and so far these have been great! They are narrow in the toe and I would recommend getting the wider size. Looking forward to getting a lot of miles in these!

These shoes are super cute but as other review have stated runs narrow. Order at least 1/2 size up.

I bought this shoe from an Asics store, and I love them. They run a little small in the length, as did my last Asics; I bought a half size up from my usual size. What I really like though is that they hug my foot so well. I usually wear a regular width shoe, but I tend to have issues with tennis shoes with my foot sliding around. These fit like a glove. I think if you tend to need a wider fit or if you like having some room in your shoe, this might not be the best option for you. But if you like a close fit with a lot of cushion, these are great.

I absolutely love these shoes!! So comfy. I've purchased several pairs of asics and love them. They have helped heal my plantar fasciitis.

While beginning the training for a full-marathon I decided to "up" my shoe game. I wore the Asics Gel-2000's for years and they got me through many half marathons. However, I knew for a full that I would need something a bit stronger and longer-lasting. I was recommended the Kayano's by a local running store and am very happy with them. The fit compared to the 2000's is quite similar, the largest difference being the outer seams. These are comfortable and very durable!
