Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Kayano® 24

My feet were swimming – I return them for a smaller size in a different color.

I am trying this out in my house, and haven't decided to keep them yet, but probably will keep them. This is the 5th pair of running shoes bought from Zappos and the first 4 pairs were returned for various reasons. These seem a little stiff compared to my old Brooks shoes, but hug my heel very nicely, and definitely feel like my foot is supported. The sole cushioning goes the entire length of the insole, so the balls of my feet are just as comfy as my heels. One slight issue- the top of the toe box sits a little close to the top of my foot, but the material is soft and stretchy and so far no rubbing. I think the stiffness of the shoe is because it provide such good support and motion control, and I'm hoping I can just get used to it. But not out-of-box comfort as some have reported.

Nice pair of comfortable shoes. I returned a pair of Brooks because they had no cushioning under the front of my foot but these feel much better. Nice variety of style choices also.

I really like the look of these since they are all one color. I ended up buying 3 pairs, the black, purple and blue ones. They are very comfortable and light. I had trouble with my last pair of Asics (Nimbus) being too cushiony but these were perfect. Offers cushion but still supportive. My only complaint is that they are quite stiff on the top area around the ankle, unlike all the other Asics shoes I have worn.

This is my 3rd pair of Kayano 24's. I'm a nurse who is on my feet for 12-13 hours at a time and these shoes are great! I have another pair of them that I use for the gym- cardio/combat/tabata type classes. They are very comfortable and supportive for that, as well. I have read reviews that these are tight in the toes (compared to different models of Asics). They are snug, however comfortable for me--not too tight. (I've had problems with this with Nike Flex RN- I would constantly get ingrown toenails). My biggest problem with them honestly- Is I can't decide what color to buy because I love a few of them :) Will definitely be buying these again!

it was between this and the nimbus, which is pricier. i just like the nimbus better for me. this is a great, really comfy shoe. if i had to settle for this model life would still be good, lol! i wear a 6-6.5 in street shoes but my last few pairs of asics i’ve needed a 7. make sure you get a large enough size, these do run small.

This shoe runs twice as narrow as stated. I ordered a D wide, and it felt very snug.

I have a hard time finding shoes with a toe box that is wide enough. The kayano 23 was very painful trying to break in, even sizing up. These kayano 24 have a roomier for box. I still sized up, but the fabric is stretchier and allows more room for your toes. This is my second pair and I am planning to get another. I hope they will continue to make the kayano a with a roomier toe box.

Really narrow across toe. Laces are too short and if I tighten laces for length and support my foot goes numb when running. Always have run in gel kayanos— am finally considering a new model or different brand

Really hard insoles. Not comfortable like all my other Asics.

ordered a 11 wide...could even get my foot in...come on Asics, you use to be a good reliable shoe.

Ordered this in wide (D) and it was too narrow, much more so than my Kayano 21s. Disappointed because it was such a cute shoe and the last pair was so good to me.

I sadly don't like these shoes. My feet and legs hurt the 1st day I wore them. No where enough cushioning. I think these are more narrow in the toe box too. I do love that they come in white. I am so tired of all the wild colors.

I really wanted to keep this shoe. I have a wide foot, and I found the shoe was constricting the toes on my left foot. Unfortunately, I had to return it.

I've been wearing this shoe style for years and went on my first run only to end with numb toes. The shoes felt tight in the toe box when I tried them on and I hoped they'd stretch and feel more comfortable during my run. But, sadly, my first impression was accurate and I'll be returning the shoes.

Definitely a half size to full size too small. I wear a solid 8 and they were way too small for me. Cute shoes though.
