I started with Gel Kayano 20 and have been wearing the updates since then. I am on my feet a lot and I call these "16 hour shoes" because I have literally worn them for that long and my feet still feel great.

Wore Kayona's years ago.. got away from them and made the rounds when they changed.. I struggled.. blisters on every run. Couldn't find the right shoe. Came back to ASICS and boooooom!!! I'm in love! No blisters. Thank you!

Excellent shoe! I was having terrible problems with posterior tibial tendonitis and this was the solution. I can run again!!!

I searched to find this ACIS size (8.5 AA) in a not too vivid color combo - and this was it! Very delighted with quick delivery too.

Replaced my old ASICS gel Kayanos with this newer version. I always forget how great a fresh pair feels. So glad I reordered these.

I am thrilled that the Asics Gel-Kayano 25 offer some colors in narrow widths, although I wished more were offered. Fit like a glove. I normally go up half a size in sneakers, and these were no exception. Fabulous product!

I am sooo happy the ASICS changed the toe box in the Kayano back to what it was a couple years ago!! I only wish there was a better color option then grey
Happy to buy my favorite running shoe again!

I wear an 11.5 N or SS. The 11.5N in this shoe is a little roomy in the toe box, so I am going to wear them with socks in the future. The heel does not feel snug, but it does not slip either, so that's great! Love the arch support - no need for orthotics - and the cushioning. Expect that socks will make the shoes fit perfectly. Wish there were more choices in my size though.

My Mom loves these! She has super-narrow feet, and they fit her well in width 2A. She especially likes the neutral tone of the Mid Grey color: she has had the model before, and never liked the flashes of neon.

I love the fit of Asics. The toe box is perfect for my wide foot and though I have to wear a store bought orthodontic, the shoe feels great.

I ran 4.5 miles this AM at normal pace and it was better than expected. The shoes fit to the "tee" better than other 11.5 2A shoes that I have and have run many miles in. Please pass along to your people that helped me to keep up the good work! I am truly pleased with my shoes and I know I will stay pleased. Thanks again. Sincerely,

In a word: awesome. Asics are my favorite running shoe. And it seems as if every time I find a favorite, they discontinue that particular style. So this time I'm back to buy a second pair before this one disappears as the others have. Right out of the box these were comfortable. I need a wider toe box and in these shoes 'little piggy' was quite happy and not at all crowded. Love the color (pink/burgandy), too.

I have worn Asics for a long time. I originally ordered another style of Asics that was cheaper than the Kayano. That was a mistake. They were uncomfortable and caused blisters. I then ordered the Kayano. These shoes restore my faith in Asics. They are more expensive but are much more comfortable...no blisters. I am on my treadmill for 1 hour every day and these shoes are much improved over the first ones I bought. Love Zappos customer service.

Like walking on clouds. I have to wear socks that are on the thinner side to make the shoe feel roomy. I played pickle ball in them today and they were great. No break in period. They vent much better than the less expensive (plastic) Asics I had worn previously.

I took a chance on these based on the reviews. Glad I did!! These shoes are the softest stability shoes I've ever run in. The toe box is just right and it didn't feel tight at all. I always get a half size larger that my regular shoes and they fit perfectly. I didn't feel like they needed to be broken in, felt fine right out of the box. So glad I got these!!

Good fit and excellent foot support and cushioning. This is my 5th pair of Asics gel. I am an avid walker, and these shoes support each and every step! I buy a new pair each spring and walk the sole off by each winter!
I enjoy the bright colors and wild designs. I highly recommend Asics shoes!!

The Gel Kayanos have been my favorite runners for years . The 23 & 24 have disappointed (narrow, low toe box) but the 25’s look like back on track. I hope they are as good as in the past. Cushioning wise- nothing compares to these Asics!

this is a comfortable shoe. My size seemed to have changed (due to arches flattening out). After trying many different styles with none of them fitting correctly I got the Kayano 25 in my size and was disappointed as it seemed to small. While I measure a 6 (on the computer at the shoe store) I have had to go to a 6 1/2 or 7. I returned the 6 and got a 6 1/2. Wonderful arch support, lovely cushioning and it is an attractive shoe.

I love ASICS- these are my jam!! This style in particular was exactly what I was looking for- a lightweight running shoe. I’m a marathon runner and these sneakers are the perfect shoe to run 26.2 miles (or more!) in. Highly recommend!

I have been wearing Asics for years and they are still great. These were a little stiffer than usual when I first put them on, but after one day they are fine. Plenty of support and give when you need it. Seems true to size and width to me. I bought 2 pairs, one purple and one grey, so I can switch them out. Love these and love Zappos.

I followed previous recommendations and went up 1/2 size. I wore them today for the first time and I really enjoyed them. Feel secure but comfortable.

I absolutely love these! They are super comfortable! I took them out of the box, and went for a walk. The material is soft, and it’s a bit stretchy. Perfect for me! They are also very pretty.
