I bought these this month and went for a 2 mile walk. They are a little narrow so I put on thin socks until I get them broke in

I have always worn Kayanos. The 25s are a perfect fit for me. I size up in an athletic shoe. Have purchased 2 pairs and love them. Thanks ASICS for improving the color combinations! The 25s didn't need any breaking in. It was get up and go!

Very comfortable shoe. I have a sit-stand desk and feel these would give me good support. I think the shoe looks good as well.

This is the third pair of Asics I've owned and the first pair of GEL-Kayno 25. I really love the fit and support this shoe gives. I have flat feet, little to no arches and a weak right ankle, and this shoe gives me the support other shoes lack. The best part is this shoe is the comfort with the wide toe box and snug heel- makes walking a pleasure. I would recommend this shoe to anyone who enjoys wearing a well made shoe for walking.

I haven't run in yearsI'm a hiker/walker to be kind to my knees and joints. But I've been a been sedentary the last couple of years and have been putting on weight so I decided to start running again. I live in Upstate NY where I have access to loads of beautiful cross-country trails. I wasn't sure if these would provide enough stability on rocky, narrow terrain, but the are FLAWLESS! Incredibly comfortable from the start, like wearing a glove, and they weigh nothingI feel like I'm floating. I've used them twice for a total of three hours of trail-running in wide open and narrow, hilly spaces, and I couldn't be happier. I'm actually buying a second pair for when these are worn out, they fit so well. I am sooooooo happy with these shoes, I can't wait to run in them. What an awesome way to feel about exercise!

These GEL-Kayano 25 ASICS shoes are perfect for my feet !!! I bought 2 pair they fit so well. Lots of padding around my narrow heel - no slipping around back there, and the toe box is wide enough to keep my toes free and not cramped. I have Peripheral neuropathy from chemo so shoes make a big difference in how I walk. This particular style is exactly what I need to aid my balance and keep me walking in comfort. Thanks!

I have been wearing the Kayano's since 2012. I love them and I happy Assics returned to the original fit. These fit just like my old ones from 2012 and work great with my arches.

This is my second pair of the Kayano 25's and they are the most comfortable and well-fitting shoes I've had in years. I have a very difficult foot to fit for shoes with narrow heel, high arch and high instep and these fit like a glove. The color is great -I have people stop to tell me how much they love the color combo.

So glad I bought these! I was hesitant, because the fit and wear of the Gel-Kayano 24s were not what I've come to expect from ASICS. The 25s provide great stability and support with a very comfortable footbed. I'm going to buy a second pair, just in case. Would definitely recommend this version!

I wear size 8; between regular and wide. Had to return the regular 8 and purchase 8.5 in wide and love them. Worth every penny and makes walking a pleasure. After years of wearing Nike, I find these offer more support and are better for your feet. Wish they made the wide sizes in a few colors.

I bought these shoes just because my other shoes were worn out. My knee pain subsided within a few days. Great support in this shoe without looking orthopedic!

I love these shoes! I've been wearing Nike Air Pegasus for several years but reading the reviews on here about the toe box on the new ones, I opted to go back to Asics and I'm very pleased. They have great support, extremely comfortable and the color is great!

I bought these because I needed shoes more comfortable with my Planter Fasciitis. They are so wonderful, they fit my heels so they dont slide and my toes don't rub the tips of the shoes like they did with my last pair.

I am loving this shoe. I have a horrible pronation and these shoes are having me land and push off very evenly. I feel like I am wearing a comfortable pair of slippers. I went a 1/2 size up to an 11.5 and really glad I did. I highly recommend these shoes to any one that has a bad pronation gate. The color options are also great for the ladies!!!! Thanks

I love this shoe! The toe box is soft enough to allow my 'old lady toes' to be comfy. The padded type heel prevents slipping. I have nephropathy from chemo treatments and the gel comfort does work well for my issues of feeling in my feet. Thanks Asics and Zappos for tending to my achy feet.

They fit great. Love that the toe bed is wide and the heel area still holds my narrow heel. Very comfortable.

I am loyal to the GT-2000 which I started wearing for support after experiencing ankle pain when I first started running several years ago. But the last GT-2000's I bought were pretty clunky looking and I wasn't sure I still needed the same level of support anymore so ordered a pair of these to try. You can def feel the difference in support, these are much more flexible, and I thought they were more flattering since they are slightly more narrow looking. But while I don't wear wide shoes, I do have slightly wider than average feet and even after loosening the laces all the way and re-tightening I felt tightness across the shoe at the toes/where the laces start. I was worried it'd bother me in the long run so ended up returning. Not sure if it was a fluke or what.
