Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Kayano® 26

Very comfortable, light , made out of great material

I was looking specifically for a pair of running shoes for PT for the military. I was tired of buying low quality Nike's and paying for the name. I decided to try these out and I would have to say they're the best running shoes I've ever owned!

Very comfortable and great fit. I love running in them.

Good comfortable fit the hugs the foot nicely over the heal and in the toe box. One suggestion: make the shoelaces a little shorter.

Great replacement for my previous Asics, they are not too wide like some competitors (I wish someone would make a stability shoe that is in narrow widths!).

Sole of the shoe is lasting longer than the 25. I've been very pleased.

This is my second Gel Kayano and I already ran one full marathon, 2 halfs and couple of 10Ks & 5Ks with this one. I'm happy with the quality stability it gives me being an overpronator. Yes there's a bit of difference I feel between the Kayano 25 & 26 - I feel this one is a bit light weight and better cushioning. I plan to get one more since my other shoes in the cycle is getting towards the 500 miles mark.

The best , did my half marathon and feel good with this shoes

I have had ankle problems when jogging in other shoes. These compensate for my over pronation and avoid ankle problems.

Love this shoe! One of the most comfortable running shoes I've ever used.

Amazing support for a running shoe. If you have flat feet and are subject to overpronation, then this is the shoe for you. Provides great support and feel. They are light and fit form to my feet. The only recommendation to asics is to make the laces as sturdy as the Nimbus (which seem to be of better quality and design). Still a 5 star shoe.

Comfortable as expected. Fit is exact as expected.

This running shoe has a great comfortable fit and it's the third pair of this in various colors as I'm putting more mileage on them, mostly by walking and treadmill running. I've been a Gel-Kayano person for years and they have evolved incrementally over time which is good for fit and comfort.

Great shoe, delivers great support and cushioning. Not to mention the shoe looks fabulous in this color combination.

Great treadmill running shoe. Very satisfied. And will probably buy the same shoe when I wear this one out. When ordering, I based shoe size on an earlier version of the same model that I have. The new shoe is a little longer and roomier in the front. It still fits well enough, but when I order again, I will consider going down a half size (if available).

This shoe is very stable for pronators. Extremely comfortable.

Very Comfortable. Looks great. Shipping is good. Comfortable

Doctor recommended these shoes after an injury. They have been a game changer

These are my third pair of ASICS and second pair of the 26's and I love them. I have low arches and these are the only shoes I've found that have the support I need. Will continue to buy these shoes in the future.

Great shoe! The comfort level is so amazing no knee pain

My husband loves these shoes. We only buy Gel-Kayano for running. I always recommend these running shoes to my family and friends.

I love it. I have flat feet and very low arch. These sneakers are so comfortable. Love them.

I've run in this shoe since Kayano #1 25/26 years ago. It has eveolved well and is great for long training runs. To me - it could be a little lighter - but I own the DS Trainer for tempo runs and DS Racer for 5k races. Keep up the good work Asics!

My Kayanos helped me complete a virtual marathon on Election Day. On Nov. 3, I ran a virtual marathon--26.2 miles in four segments. I alternated between a pair of Kayano 26 and a pair of Kayano 27. I got the support and cushioning to make it to the finish line. The shoes were great.

This continues to be my shoe of choice for 20 years. Was looking for a classic white shoe to wear casually this fits the bill excellent.
