I still like the Gel Kayano 21s best, which I can no longer find in my size. These hurt my soles the first few times I wore them but are breaking in now, so I'm hopeful they'll be better. I've worn Gel Kayanos for 10+ years. Order a half size up.

Much better, Asics! Bravo on improving the toe box issue! I ordered my regular size and they are perfect,

I have bad knees, so I need running shoes with good support. I ordered a bunch of running shoes (New Balance, Nike, Addidas, Asics, etc.) these included, for a side-by-side comparison at home. Testing all of these out was like a mini workout. The verdict: while these were in my top 3, they did not make the final cut. I went with ASICS GEL-Nimbus?® 19 instead - best cushioning by far. Gel-Nibus 18 would've been my second choice.

I have been a loyal Gel Kayano runner for 10 years. Why. Why. Why do they change the shoe? This is just ok. I am a size 8 but have always worn a 9.5 WIDE Kayano. This feels like regular width. NOT impressed with the width. The worst of all- this NOT grey and coral- it’s a denim blue color. Ugh.

I have worn Asics for some time now and they seem to gradually get smaller and smaller. I ordered an 8.5 but found that it was way too tight - especially in the toe box, and too small. So I'm going to try a 9 and see how that is. I hope it works because i do love these shoes.

I ordered the Gel 24 and Gel 22 (from Amazon). The Gel 24 were stiff and uncomfortable compared to the 22 and mAde my feet hurt instantly. The Gel 22 were far better but they are definitely a heavier sneaker compared to my Nike Fusion.

I have been wearing Kayano since Series 18... Extremely disappointed with the 24. There is no support in the front of the shoe and my toes slide forward because the material on the outside stretches out after the first few days of wear. I have had so many injuries to my foot and ankle ligaments due to these. I absolutely loved the Kayano-21. They were the Best!! Please bring that fit back! Stop with the painted mesh material in the front. Painted mesh does nothing to reinforce the toe!

I'm a woman without a running shoe. I have been wearing Asics for 15 years, always buying their top lines, including both Kayanos and the Mataruns. What gives, Asics? These Kayanos and last year's, too, are WEIRDLY narrow across the top of the toe box area, like immediately painful. My feet are not abnormally wide or anything; I've never had this issue before Asics redesigned this shoe. It's bizarre. They have got to fix this issue. Until then, I literally have no clue what running shoe I can truly count on anymore. Sad!

ASICS Kayano 24 (like the 22 and 23 models) is exceedingly narrow and there's insufficient room in the toe box. Compare Kayano 21 (on left) to 24 (on right) - this is the exact same shoe size, and clearly the 24 is too narrow and too tight. My feedback to ASICS global product team has fallen on deaf ears. This marathoner is switching brands...

I have been wearing wide shoes for a long time and I can tell you that Asics wides are not really a wide width. I am not sure if they are all defective or they are not making them the standard wide width anymore. I will try a different brand now.

I teach dance and fitness classes I only buy and recommend asics to my students.
I have worn the Kayano 21,22, 23 which were all fantastic .
I was so excited to get the Kayano 24's, very, very disappointed . I am so ready to send this back . I felt no support in heels, arch's, and my feet were killing me and my knees. I ran to get a new pair of shoes, in less than a week of having my Kayano's.I got GT1000 6. They feel amazing , better heel support, better pronation support and my entire foot, felt much more comfortable ! Also much better traction on the soles of the GT1000 6, then Kayano 24 .

Great support and comfort. Have had on for four hour stretches of time and still did not hurt my feet. I think the fit is true to size.

I have been using Gel-Kayano for many years. The Gel-Kayano 24 is very
supportive and comfortable. I do alot of walking and it gives me the support I need.
It helps with my foot pronation. I have bought the Gel-Kayano 25 and it is not
comfortable for me at all so I had to go back to the 24.

These are my first pair of ASICS as well as "supportive, stability" truly running shoes. I don't use them for running but I am on my feet all day and use them for the gym (besides leg day) and boxing. They are true to size, breatheable and not clunky or heavy. They are great and I was very pleasantly surprised I wasn't sure if they would live up to the price tag but I can say, they are worth it.

I bought the Kayano 24 when it first came out. I spend 2-3 hours a day on my elliptical at least 5 times a week, and this shoe is great. My feet don't go numb like they do in other shoes. I recommend buying shoe inserts if you use these a lot-I buy the super feet inserts and this shoe has lasted me over a year...considering how much I use them-it is a good investment. Super comfortable and not ugly. Long time Asic patron.

I have bought two pairs of these and they are worth every penny. I have pronated feet and the stability and support that these shoes offer have saved my hips and knees. I am a runner and I have had no problem training in these. They are durable, comfortable, and stylish! I will buy Kayano 24s as long as they are in production.

I've been wearing the Keyano for the last 7 years I think. I've tried a few different brands but always come back. No other shoe gives me the comfort to run without pain. The do run narrow and a bit small so I get a wide and 1/2 size up.
