Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Kayano® 26

Great fit with wide toe box. This shoe allowed me to stay in my regular shoe size due to the wide width.

I have been running in Gel Kayano's for 20 years and this has been my favorite model. Since model 20 ASICS has been all over the place with changing this shoe, Iv even had to run in other brands because some of the models were down right awful. This 26 model reminds me of the old models that I loved prior to the 21....but new and improved! This shoe is almost perfect. The only complaint I would have is the toe box. ASICS made this model rounder and shorter. First time in 20 years I had to go up half a size. But the shoe is amazing for running. The stability is excellent, the shoe doesn't lose its form, great springy action and the base is the perfect combo of firmness and comfort. I can speed run and long run in these shoes. I will keep buying model 26 until I cannot find them anymore. ASICS please make more like this one! Stop changing this shoe so much!

One the most comfortable shoes, and lasts awhile too. Fits great with the width.

I stand for 8 hours a day at work so the Kayano gel asics have been the absolute best. I have Achilles tendinitis and heel spurs and this shoe helps lots

I love ASICS shoes to run in this style particularly fits me best just crazy about the brand

Very comfortable! Can totally tell that it's correcting my right foot over pronounced issue. Love them!

Absolutely love these shoes. They are so comfortable. Feels like I'm walking on a cloud

Perfect stability shoe that I use for walking several miles everyday. Extremely comfortable and durable.

For nearly 2 decades I have worn ASICS for my wide feet (11D) because they have extra room in the front of the foot while firming hugging the back of my feet to prevent them from slipping in and out as I walk. This is my first pair of Gel Kayanos and I am most happy with them. They are very similar to the GT 2000 7 and 2000 9 styles I own, but this shoe seems to have more cushion under the heel. I am a heel walker who strikes the ground hard with the heel and this cushion was evident the second I slipped them on and took my first step. There are really no cons to this style and I will purchase the Kayano in the future, with the caveat that they either have splashes of bright color or are a neutral shade. It might seem that I would want to play down big feet with black shoes, but I find that lighter shoes with casual shorts or running shorts creates a longer, more fluid line on me.

These shoes run small. I had to order half a size larger than my previous Asics shoes.

Support , comfort, stability. These are wonderful shoes

This is my 5th pair of Gel Kayanos. I walk 4-5 miles a day and these are the best shoe for walking. I also cross train with them. Both my daughters are hooked on these as well. One is a fitness instructor and the other uses for marching band practices.

Extremely comfortable. I absolutely love how these shoes fit my feet. Doesn't even require a break-in period.

These are amazing for a nurse like me whos on there feet for 12 hrs a day ! I love Asics!!!

Love this shoe! I'm not a runner but have very flat feet. These shoes give me the support I need to be comfortable.

These are amazing for almost any activity or just walking around. My college is on a hill and these definitely help with the amount of steps I have to climb. Also great with trails

I asked my wife what she thought of these shoes when she was brushing her teeth. My wife said "I don't know, they are comfortable and there's nothing wrong with them". I think she was kind of annoyed but apparently a 5 star show, because that's what she picked on my phone when I put it in front of her. Ok, bye.

These shoes were perfect for me. I chose them because they suited a supinator. My posture was better, I could walk long distances without tiredness, wore them every day on a vacation/tour. They propel your feet nicely.

So comfortable for working out in the home gym. Great support through foot arch. Plenty of space for those wide feet. Highly recommend.

True to size and super comfy. Really help with my flat feet

This shoe is about comfort and style. The fit works and I both enjoy jogging and walking in them.

This is my second pair of the GEL-KAYANO 26 (D), and I love them! My husband discovered your shoes and encouraged me to get a pair. We learned from your website that I needed shoes for overpronation. These are the most comfortable shoes I've ever had, and I just ordered a third pair. My only request is that this style be available in more colors! =)
