Great shoe, I took the insert out to put in orthodics. Still a great shoe. Extremely comfortable and wears like a shock absorber.

This is a solid sneaker. Very well made with great padding for comfort around the cuff. No break in period. The laces have the slightest stretch to them so they can be tied tightly but still have flexibility on impact. Well thought out and comfortable.

Great shoe , feels good all around and I have minimal arch on my foot . These have prevented a lot of aching feet after a long run

I'm an over pronator and this is a stable shoe. The price for stability seems to be a ride just a little on the hard side. Otherwise very good shoe with a good fit.

I wear a sz.14 2e or 4e depending on the shoes,i’ve ordered Asics in the past and have great success with this brand of shoe ,unfortunately the cheaper shoes don’t fit like the Kayano brands do.Up until 5years ago i always wore new balance but for some reason shoe size was inconsistent.

I had ordered both the GEL-Kayano 27 and the Brooks Adrenaline 21. When I first tried on the Kayano, it felt snug in the midfoot and heel areas. The Adrenaline fit perfectly -- until I wore it several minutes around the house. Then I realized my big toe was rubbing against the front of the shoe when I took a step. So I went back to the Kayano and wore it around the house for awhile. Yes, it was snug but no uncomfortable. In fact, it actually felt like it was hugging my mid-foot and heel -- there was no slippage at all, which is unusual for most shoes I buy. So I kept the Kayano and returned the Adrenaline. I've only worn it outside for a walk/jog once but it was very comfy and supportive. I'm thinking about buying a second pair!

ASICS are the only shoe that works for me. Have tried Nike, Brooks, etc. Whenever I buy a pair, verify they work, I immediately order two more pair. Nothing for ASICS for me for the last 15 years.

Excellent running/walking shoe. Good arch support where needed. I have purchased ASICS shoes for some years now and appreciate their effort in making a quality product.

Excellent fit as expected. Very happy with the look! Thought with the orange sole that they might be to flashy. They are perfect! The gray dominates and is very nice material.

Being someone with flat feet and sore ankles all the time, these are by far the best shoes I've found for walking/jogging or working out in. Very supportive and so incredibly comfortable. Would recommend this to anyone looking for a great workout shoe.

The shoes are an awesome fit. The material, style and color looks and feels great. I would defiantly order again. I do spray all my shoes with a repellant/protectant as I am very hard on shoes lol.

Super lightweight, very squishy under the heel. I feel like I'm faster just sitting in a chair with them on. Highly recommended for comfort. The white cloth upper seems to be a dirt magnet though.

It is comfortable, perfect for pronate step, super cool, you feel protected wearing these shoes. I run 30 mins everyday + bars. My pace is 8 miles/hour. So I need a real pair of shoes. Kayano 27 MK makes my workout activities a safer place.

I have wide feet and have difficulty finding shoes. I usually wear Keens but can't workout in those. These fit perfect and did not hurt my feet, even straight out of the box. No break in time needed!

I normally wear a size 11, but I've been buying Gel-Kayano shoes in size 11.5 for years now and I like them. Just be forewarned before you buy your first pair that they may run a little small. I was disappointed in the color of this particular pair, Carrier Grey/French Blue, because they were darker in person than they appeared on my computer screen. I wanted some lighter shoes for summer and sent these back. (I bought "Platinum" shoes in sheetrock/pure silver instead.)

I have been on a walking regiment for 5 years along with my beautiful miniature poodle Kobe. We have walked over 4,000 miles at an average speed of 3.6 mph. Before using the Gel-Kayanos I was having foot and hip problems. the last 3000 miles after switching to the Gel-Kayanos, I have no pain what so ever. Great shoe!!!
