The Diva Pink Kayano gel 25 is eye popping. My mom is in a nursing home and when I wear the shoes I get comments from multiple residents, their family members and staff. When I am running in the Metroparks or city neighborhoods, I likewise receive compliments. The comfort level is like running on a cloud from the 1st wearing.

These shoes felt great right out of the box and my knees and feet hurt so much less since I've gotten them. Thanks Asics for making a great shoe!

I've been wearing ASICS shoes for 15 or more years now and they are by far the best shoes on the planet! I read in a running magazine that they were the best shoe for people weighing over 150 lbs. and they offered support and stability, so I decided to give them a try. I've never bought another brand of running shoe since. The Gel Kayano 25 live up to the ASICS reputation and meet my expectations as well. They are good quality shoes and I'm very pleased with my purchase. I prefer the solid color shoes with only slight color contrasts opposed to the wild bright
colors, and that's just a personal
preference. I wear them for running, walking, exercising, and also like to keep one pair "clean" to wear to work on Blue Jean Fridays. I am a most happy customer!

I just ordered two more pairs of the Gel Kayano 25 2A as I'm afraid that Asics is discontinuing their narrow shoes. They are getting harder and harder to find.It is very difficult to find a shoe that fits my narrow, flat feet, but this shoe has been the answer for the last few years. Please continue to make narrow shoes!

The prime reason I purchased these shoes was because they were available in narrow width. They are comfortable with good support. Would like a little extra color.

Great cushion and support. Too much wiggle room in the toe area compared to the Keyano 23 which is a perfect fit for my narrow foot. I ordered the purple which is not bright but rather a dark purple almost plum. I returned because of the fit.

These shoes fit perfectly out of the box.Very comfortable. Good support. I bought one full size larger than my regular shoes, leaving plenty of room for my toes when I go up or down hills. Love the seaglass color.

I usually run 4-6 miles and my feet are wide so I purchased 9 1/2 . Fit perfect!

I have worn Gel Kayano shoes for 10 + years. Sometimes I run 7 times a week, but usually run 5 days a week. I do a lot of other work outs but when I run, I rely on this shoe, year after year. It is the best running shoe. The toe box is perfect, the weight is light enough, I feel stable and the colors are great!

I love my new black ASICS Gel Kayanos. They are comfortable and supportive and were a good price. The black is flattering in my size 11. Not my first pair and probably not my last!

I've put about 25 miles running on them already in the last 2 weeks. Excellent shoe for people that need the stability and have higher arches

I have been wearing the gel-kayano since generation 11 and this is absolutely the best fit ever. Super comfortable!

We bought these for our daughter-in-law's birthday. She loves this brand of tennis shoes and plans to use them as she prepares for a marathon. She has a condition on one of her feet where she has an extra bone thus, she can't wear just any tennis shoe. She has found that ASICS tennis shoes work great for her!

Having ordered and returned numerous shoes, I went back to the Asics GEL Kayano and couldn't be happier. Completely comfortable right out of the box for someone who walks 5--6 miles day. Great comfort in the toe box, light weight, moderate arch support, look sleek and super cute color. Order these, you won't be disappointed.

I tried the 11 narrow but it was too wide and too long so I returned them (easily and for free) and ordered the 10.5 narrow. They are perfect! Good cushioning and well made.

Thank you Asics! The last Gel-Kayano I was able to wear was the 19. This model 25 in a wide width has a perfect amount of room in the toe box. The shoes feel light with a nice amount of cushion. It also can accommodate orthotics.

So far so good. I could really tell how worn out my old ones were when I got these. Asics Kayanos haven't failed me yet.

I did not find these sneakers to be overly narrow and they fit me nicely, and I have hard-to-fit feet. The width at the widest part of my foot is about right. The knit uppers are soft and light weight but seem to be supportive. I am not sure I would recommend any knit running sneaker for more aggressive sports that have lateral motion, as the soft upper can give and you can roll your foot or ankle. But, for running or walking, these are pretty sweet.
I'd also recommend:

I tried these in my usual 101/2 and opted for wide as i have a wide forefoot and narrow heel. The width is not the problem, but I slid forward in the shoe leaving a gap in the heel and still did not hit the front of the shoe. I am going to try them in 10 wide and see what happens. I don't think the width is the problem as the eyelets were not anywhere near to each other when I tightened the laces.I also don't know how much the 13 mm drop will play in my foot sliding forward. What I really like about the GEL-Kayano 25 is that nothing rubs. I have sensitive skin and a past history of foot surgery. I will update this review based on how the 10 fits.

Love the shoe! Wear a 9 and had to get wide though. Unfortunately the wide only came in grey which isn’t my favorite color but the comfort is awesome. I walk a lot and the support is great.
