Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Kayano® 26 Lite Show

Really good very supportive trainers which accommodate my shin splints

After a total hip replacement in my mid-40s I was looking for a running shoe with maximum cushioning with good support to help me get back into running regularly. After research I landed on the Gel-Kayano 26. These have proved the right choice. Very comfortable, with a good level of support and have helped improve knee pain.

Been buying ASICS for years and I stuck with my same 1/2 size up as usual with my running shoe. Love them so much!

This is a light but very supportive shoe. I have major issues with overpronating...this shoe is perfect.

My daughter and I are flat-footed. I researched and found your shoe has the best instep to stop pronation. Please keep making these shoes stronger and stronger in that area! Thanks

Having searched for a long time for a sports shoe to accommodate painful bunions which have recently prevented me walking/jogging any distance I chose these and delighted I did so. They are by far the most comfortable pair of sport shoe I have ever worn. Excellent cushioning, stable yet light and super comfortable. Will never choose another model shoe again.

Really supportive- I was able to run without pain from shin splints for the first time in ages. Absolutely love these - would recommend.

Super comfy trainers Feels like walking on clouds Great support

I'm a newbie to running and needed trainers with better support. These trainers have been a game changer! I'm running more comfortably for far longer. The shoe was true to size. The Kayano's structure makes my foot feel so secure and every step bouncy. Super happy with my investment and have recommended to others wishing to upgrade.

Excellent, comfortable and great heel and foot support

Love the colours and the cushioning is amazing, both around the heel and underfoot. Fit is comfortable with no rubbing or blisters on the first wear. Made me realise just how much I needed a new pair of kayano's! Delivery was Fast and efficient within 2 working days during lockdown. Well worth the investment and would highly recommend them to others.

Very comfortable and provide good support. I sized up half a size from my normal shoe size and they fit perfectly.

Great product, very comfortable. The trainer is lightweight and very balanced on your foot. I have calf injuries and decided to upgrade my trainers. The trainers take the impact a lot better.

Fantastic running shoes. I have been suffering with hip pain due to my pronation and since I have started to wear these trainers the pain has reduced radically.

Comfortable trainer & feels very sturdy. Already helped my over pronation during runs! Nice colour & design.

Amazingly comfortable! I got the trainers as was looking for something which would support my feet/ankles when running. These did the trick and I have not been experiencing any pain since getting these trainers. They are so cushioned and well structured. Will recommend these to all my running friends.

Great comfort and look. Supports The foot brilliantly for running

Really comfortable and helped a lot with my ankles rolling inwards as I run, would really recommend.

I did a lot of research before purchasing these shoes as I was looking for something supportive that could be used as an all round shoe for running and the gym but that would be good for my foot health. This is the best trainer I have ever worn in my life! I am thinking I might even order another pair for when these are worn because they're so good! That being said, they're extremely durable so that shouldn't be a concern any time soon. A proper, well made shoe that feels like it's going to last a long time and is definitely worth the money. I have wide (ish) feet and ordered a half size up which fits perfectly.

I have suffered with plantar fasciitis for about a year and my fitness has suffered as a result. I ordered these hoping to gradually increase my exercise and so far they have been great and I have had no foot pain! Looking forward to seeing what I can do next.

very cushiony - comfortable from day 1! love the colors too

To my surprise this shoe (my first shoe bought on the Internet is the perfect running shoe for me. I run daily up to an hour and half cross country and roads. The description on the Internet was accurate and allowed me to Choosers this ideal shoe for my needs.

Was having trouble with my ankles and knees which was affecting my run time and recovery. I switched from my regular trainers to these and the difference is unbelievable, like running on a cloud!

They feel great and are a lot cuter in person! I have neuromas one both feet and have to be very picky about the shoes I buy- lots of arch support needed and these feel great!

Very comfortable high mileage shoe. Lots of cushion to help absorb impact and reduce knee pain.
