Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Kayano® 26 Lite Show

This is the second pair I have brought. Great comfort and highly supportive.

Good shoes, my knees don't hurt after walking three miles.

This a very comfortable shoe for walking and running

Nice, lightweight and looks great. Slightly firmer sole but still good for running on tarmac.

Supportive as I expect from the Kayano shoe for my over pronating foot. Has a very soft lining which I find a bit slippery for my running socks but probably good for smaller liner socks or no sock running.

I purchased a Gel Kayano 26 LS, and loved them so much so ordered another pair of G.K. 26 and assumed they were the same. They are not, and I can't put my finger on exactly why they are different other than the color. What does the LS stand for and why are they different? Please let me know

Nice trainers but just too shallow for me across the toes.

Good support for the back of my feet as I over pronate. Feet stayed dry when it rained. Hopefully they will last me a good while. Make sure you break them in properly, as they can feel quite tight across the top of your foot at first.

These shoes are extremely exquisite. The design is aesthetically beautiful. And the feel! Oh my gosh! Feels like walking bare-feet. So light weight. When I put it to the test, my running has been more impactful. No more ankle pains and back aches for me. This truly supports you in your runs.

Shoes are quite stiff, which offers good support for overpronation. My pain while running has decreased massively wearing these. If you want more cushioning though, I wouldn't go for this shoe.

Good pair of trainers, they are comfortable to wear and supportive to

Comfy and great support just a shame they don't make me less lazy!

Amazing stability shoe with lots of cushioning. I've always ran in ASICS and have recently upgraded to these from the Nimbus. Great shoe, 4 stars as I'm still wearing them in and having a few niggles in my Achilles. A definite improvement from the Nimbus shoe for both short and long runs.

I'm a regular runner and straight away noticed the excellent ankle support and how bouncy they are! They'll take a bit of breaking in before I can go on a loooong run though! 5 miles and my heels were hurting and a bit of foot cramp too. Just need wearing in.

I so wanted to love these shoes but the sizing for me was just not quite right. Am usually a dress size 7 so ordered a 7.5 but these were too small, my toe was right at the end. So I sized up to the 8 but the toe box was too big! Perhaps I needed a narrower shoes? Shoes themselves are lovely and was able to return them so easily without fuss online. Still would love a pair of Asics as they were comfy to stand in looked great but not quite right size for me sadly for running. I would prefer a shoe that hugs all of my foot.

beautiful colour, top lace holes should be reinforced

So far I've been on a couple of short 20 minute runs with these shoes and they've been great. I suffer from overpronation and have had from recurring knee muscle pain, but so far these trainers have helped. I got a size bigger than my every day shoe size.

This is the third pair I have owned since taking up running. A good fit around the heel with no rubbing, blisters or issues. However this new model Kayano 26 seem to be more generous around the toe which is taking a bit of getting used to.

The soles were dirty which was gutting with the cost associated but a great pair of shoes

Great shoes but they have a stiffer upper than the previous versions I've had. I got a couple of little blisters the first time I ran in them but they have been ok since!

Really comfortable and stable. Lots of cushioning around the heal area.

Comfortable shoes that fit very well. Great for overpronation

Feel feel supported. Size is good. Beautiful shoe.

Lovely colours, good quality but I'm a UK size 7.5 so ordered an 8 and my toes are touching the top in a thin sock. Having to return and reorder a UK 8.5 which I hope will give a little "wiggle room".

I love the design - very slick. Plus they are extremely comfortable!
