Best ASICS shoe I have owned yet. Just superior to the Gel 2000.

Really nice trainers. Fit is a bit large compared to other asics trainers I've bought. I'd recommend a half size smaller to your normal size

The fit is excellent and you can feel the support in the heels and balls of my feet. It is a quality made shoe and performs like I have expected from Asics in the past 20+ years of running.

It seems like I've been wearing Asics Gel Kayano's forever. When I was running marathons, I'd have 3 pair in rotation (12 month old pair, 6month old pair, 3 month old pair) that I'd rotate through my workout, plus a nearly new pair for races. These are a great shoe for heavier runners (165 lbs-200 lbs.). Their construction, stability, support, and cushioning is superb. Stick with a winner.

My first running shoes were Asics back in 1978, when I ran my first marathon, the Mayor Daley Marathon (in Chicago). I bought the shoes at Bill Roger's Running Store in Boston. I have tried other brands, but always come back to Asics. These are great shoes.

Such a soft yet supportive feel when I run. I have medium arches and my runs are between 2-5 miles each. Been running for 25 years and wore ASICS for 20 of those years. Best running shoe for me!

The Kayano 26 was a welcome arrival in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic! Ive been wearing Kayanos for years and the 26 did not disappoint! I would say that these fit better and more true to size than the 25 which felt a little too wide in the toe bed for a D and the 24 which felt a little too narrow in the toe bed for a D. Right out of the box, I wore them for a 2.5 mile walk and noticed the good arch support and stability. I'm looking forward to a lot more walking and running with these Kayano 26 shoes!

Although my first time ordering or owning Asics shoes I am very happy with the results. They arrived quickly in-spite of the pandemic and the size was spot on. I work on polished concrete floors 11 hours a day in a warehouse and the arch support and soles of these shoes have made my job walking 23k steps a day so much easier. I'll continue to be a customer.

Best tongue design so far. All the others would slide off center which was highly annoying.

I am 40 yrs old 6' and 250lbs with very flat and severely over pronated feet! And if you are like me you love to run , BUT IT HURTS! trust me when I tell you that you need these shoes! Very comfortable strait out of the box and from your first stride to the last mile, these shoes feel great!

Really like these shoescomfortable and great support for walking, working out or running. I now have three pair. Only bad is that they'll phase these out for the new 27s which just aren't very attractive.

Fit is spot on. I've been wearing gel kyano's since kyano 19. Delivered as i was going out for run, took out of box, switched out the old and went for a run. No issues.
