Comfort and support and reliable!
I buy a pair for spring/summer and one for fall/winter. It's fun to switch colors and also maintain a good level of support. I do at least 5 miles a day.

Best shoes I've found for anyone with IT Band problems! Was able to run my first Marathon in February with help from these shoes!! Thanks ASICS!

Fits true to size. I purchased the wide width for my orthotics and the shoe was wide enough for them and still had enough room for a comfortable fit.

I have a narrow foot, high arch, and for years have worn the Gel Kayano with great satisfaction for power walking. The only version that wasn't good for my foot was the model that was harder and didn't give- don't remember the model number.
This model is back to offering a giving support all around, with flexibility, and I'm pleased. Hope this continues! If so, this will be my go to exercise trainer.

I have been wearing Kayano's for many years. So glad they continue to make the same shoe for those of us who love to hit the road as soon as we put them on, and "not having to break them in".

So far these have been great! I got these just in time to start a 1000k virtual race and they have been comfortable for runs three days in a row, social distancing requirements of jumping from sidewalk to street to grass iGrwandntje and plenty room for my toes, and

My 1st running shoes. I no longer have pain in my feet when I walk or run. Feels like clouds on the bottom of my feet.

There's a lot of cushion in the 26. Great fit and no breaking in. I highly recommend for running and walking. I always buy 1/2 size up in ASICS.

This shoe is great! I starting running again a couple months ago and have been experiencing shin pain after every run. I have been trying to find a shoe that would help and since running is the kayano I haven't had any shin pain.

It's best to go up 1/2 size if you plan on doing a lot of running. Great cushion and comfort.

This is my first pair of the Kayano model, and I must say they are my favorite model of Asics to date. I have 15 pair of Asics, but these are the best! Being a nurse, with over pronation and having plantar fasciitis for 10+ years, I must have good support and comfort. I have gotten that with less expensive models like the GT-1000 & GT-2000, but these Kayanos are several notches above and are worth every extra penny. I doubt I will go back to my GT's.

I have had 2 feet surgeries and these shoes are so comfortable! The colors are great! I have huge feet and sometimes it's hard to find pretty shoes in a large size.

Love them! I usually wear Brooks for running, I like my ASICS for walking and just casual running errands. These fit great, comfortable for walking and wearing all day. Feet feel secure in them.

I love love love it, life changer for me. A week after my first black pair, bought the gray ones. They're my go to running shoes. I have a very low arch/ almost flat footed and wide width. They're perfect. My feet used to ache after running but now it doesn't and I enjoy running even more. Although I do wish their a little lighter, but I'm used to it now.

I love the Kayanos! I ran the Chicago Marathon with Kayanos 24 and the NYC Marathon with the Kayanos 25. I just got my pair of 26 and I absolutely love them! I need a shoe with a lot of stability because I have severe overpronation. For me wearing the right shoe is a necessity to avoid injuries. I love them
