I transitioned from the Gel-Kayano 22 to the 26 and am very happy. I was a bit worried as I needed to fit my orthotics in for extra support - but was able to do with no problem. They're stylish and comfortable!

I have been wearing this shoe literally for years. My current foot doctor recommends only 2 shoes - the Gel -Kananyo is one of them. I currently order online because I can get the wide width. Excellent fit and very good performance.

These shoes relieved the ankle pain I was having because of my over pronation. I tried many different shoes and inserts and nothing helped. I switched to this model shoe for work, and after a few days my ankles don't hurt after work.

Wow I am thrilled with these shoes! Toe box actually wide and roomy enough to easily fit despite my bunion, and rest of shoe still fits my otherwise small foot. I pronate my feet and this is the first shoe where I can truly feel the correction in a positive way. I feel like I could run forever. Hooray!

I wear these every day at work, and while I do sit at a desk, I am always up and about. We have very steep hills at work, and I am always going back and forth between buildings. It is so important in this environment to be properly sure-footed, running here and there, and I am definitely sure-footed in these sneaks. They have great support, thank you!

I ran my first half marathon in these shoes! They are super comfortable with just the right amount of cushioning for long distances, and look stylish as well. Definitely the best running shoes I've tried.

Love, love, love them. Have been wearing this style for years and the 26’s have surpassed my expectations. Love the black and white.

These are my very first pair of ASICS. Used to wear Nike. Which were causing severe cramping and numbness.
I am extremely happy with these shoes, I am able to walk in them (10+ miles) very day, with zero pain.
I am so pleased with the comfort that I bought the "Lite Show" Gel - Kayano 26 as well.
Great purchase! Very happy I decided on ASICS.

I am loving the Kayano 26 for my longer runs and during high mileage weeks with the good support and cushioning. The width is great and I am experiencing no rubbing or discomfort anywhere. I also loved the 25 model.

Very supportive. Love the trendy black details. I ordered almost a whole size up in order for more room in the toe area for running. Needed good heel support - these fit the bill.

Love. Bought these for walking around. I knocked off one star bc they would look less like obvious running shoes if they were all black. But I LOVE these shoes

Have always loved this shoe but for several years they narrowed the toe box seems like they heard our cries of pain and added a little more width. Would still like a tad more toe room but overall I love this show and the color is one of my favs!!! I wear and 11.5 wide and no arch (or hardly any arch). Thank you Ascis for bringing my foot back into your family! I would like just a little more for space but it will work

Great support. I have flat feet and these shoes have great support and are very comfortable. I use them for work where I am on my feet for 6-8 hours at a time.

I've been wearing the Gel Kayanos for probably 15 years and covered many hundreds of miles, so I've obviously been satisfied. But this new design with the wider toe box feels like a gift from above!! Amazing the impact this one change has made. My toes thank me every day. :-) Great shoe!
