They're comfortable to run in, but wear crew socks! The extra padding is fantastic, but rubs the backs of my ankles in no-show socks. The sizing was perfect, with a slight snugness which is great for running.

Great for runners who over-pronate! A little worried about wear on the soft footbed/ankle over time, but so far they've been perfect for 3-5 mile, moderate runs.

The gel-Kayano 26 has excellent heel support. I run 4 km every day on asphalt, and I was looking for a running shoe that would provide excellent cushioning and stability. This shoe provides everything that I need, it is as if the shoe itself takes the stride, they're super comfortable. I would buy the Kayano over and over!

I love these shoes! I am not an avid runner, but I do walk long distances almost every day (and occasionally run/jog). I am very happy with the quality and the comfort these shoes provide throughout the day.

My favorite shoes. I have bought probably 12 pairs in the last 7 years. So comfortable, good stability, help a ton with my lower back pain.

These are the first sneakers I've bought on line. I was expecting to have to get used to the fit but was pleasantly surprised at how comfortable they were from the onset. They have a wider toe box and great support. They are perfect for running on pavement.

I thought APLs and other brands would be fashionable and supportive - nothin compared to the support and comfort + style of my new Kayanos! ASICS devotee from now on

I wear a 9N in street shoes but bought a 9.5 to allow room for sox. Still too short, but the 10 was perfect. These fit my narrow feet so if you have a wide one, I suggest you keep looking. Love the rose gold color combination.

Needed half size larger & wide. 3 months ago had big toe joint fused. These are very supportive & cute. Also recently purchased less expensive Asics, Gel Contend. They don't come close to these.

I have been wearing the ASICS gel-kayano for 10 years. It started when I was told not to run any longer, due to an ankle injury. I have been diagnosed with MS and have arthritis in my left hip, this sneaker helps me to keep walking between 3-5 miles per day, I wouldn't wear any other sneaker.

The Gel-Kayano 26 are the most comfortable Kayano's in a long time. I have appreciate the wider toe box and fit. I have purchased 3 pairs just in case the 27's don't fit the same. Keep up the good work Asics!

My go to running shoe for more than 6 years. The new colors are great and I love the look of the toe box. The Kayano 26 makes my foot look smaller! Thanks ASICS!

The fit and cushion are great. I used them for Camp Gladiator and they are perfect for a mash of exercises.
