Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Kayano® 27

It light very nice to walk, size runs half small and less support than previous models for running

I bought the 26 and 27. Yes the 27 is lighter but I must say I prefer the 26. I'm flat footed and I pronate. The 26 are more comfortable and more stable. I'm actually sorry that I wore the 27 cause I would have returned them for the 26.

fits a little more snug than the previous gel kayano's I have had (3 or 4 generations since i've bought this shoe). Only real complaint is that the shoe laces are way too short. But the shoe looks super cool and i've gotten a lot of complements. Very reflective and am overall pretty happy.

I have Plantar Fasciitis issues, Gel- Kayano is the best style for fit and comfort for me. I have 3 pairs. Great built -in cushion and support. Been wearing these for years.

Shoes have a great bounce feel and are comfortable but the fit is a little more narrow than other shoes I have purchased. Otherwise 5 stars.

Once you break them in they are out of this world !

Heavier than I expected. My chronic shin splints don't seem to be negatively effected by these running shoes, so I'm happy with that. Overall, they are definitely a good shoe. I'm going to keep trying them.

I too wide of a toe box for me. Maybe I should by narrow? Still comfortable though, as a daily wear shoe.

This is my fourth pair of Kayano's and have to say, they just keep getting better with age. Extremely comfortable fit and I love the new slightly larger tongue which provides better comfort around the front of the ankle. There is one issue however, which may just be specific to the pair I have, but worth checking for if purchasing directly in-store (I bought online). The toe cap has two indentations which looks to have been created as part of the production rather than design. The result is that on the right shoe this indentation pushes in against the large toe and after my first run left it feeling like I had an ingrown toenail. I'm sure in time it will flatten out, but given the money spent on purchasing the, it is an annoyance. Outside of that they're great.

A good running shoe. Comfortable and very light for long distance. I run 15-20 miles regularly and they feel great.

Great sneaker. I had a pair a long time ago. Happy I got the newest pair. They look and feel great. I haven't gone that far in them yet, but I am looking forward to it.

Very stable shoe with great support in the heel and arch. The toes need more support. Too much room for movement when running.

Comfortable as expected. Toe box is very wide. Wider than expected actually. The shoes design do look prettier on the pictures too.

Shoes are nice, but they run small. Order 1/2 to full size up.

Great show. Just wish there were better colorways.

Start with pros Love the extra cushion under the toe Great bounce to the shoe It is lighter than the GK 26 The cons Very snug fit around arches Very similar design to GK 26 Because it is lighter seems like less supportive Over all , light with good bounce but I don't wonder about durability/ longevity's. I'm 5 11 185lbs I wonder how long these shoes will last me . Also limited color ways .

Asics are the best! From out to in or vice versa!!

I probably wouldn't pay full price for these, but they have held up pretty well so far. They have a good transition feeling, not too heavy (though they aren't light), not overly structured, decent cushioning, and look nice. So these will probably be my daily trainers for a while.

Decent style, decent fit, and not too different from past models. Seems to be visibly more cushion in the heel but don't feel it. Lot of room in the toe and I'm a 14 in all my shoes. Actually considering going down to 13 for the first time, since they don't have a half-size in between. Tired of white near the base of the shoe. Tired of having clean that area. When it comes to workout shoes, I prefer color so dirt isn't as visible. Otherwise, the modifications are slight. A bolder clasp-like heel, extra gel in the heel, nothing felt, more for show. Like to see the Kayano step up their style game. There are a couple attractive colorways, but I was highly anticipating these this year and I'm a bit underwhelmed.

Not bad but definitely not what they used to be. I'd only ever buy these on sale

They should have just gone on producing Kayano 26 forever.

Wear decently quick and not near as comfortable as gt-2000s

Not the best fit. There was some discomfort in front
