Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Kayano® 27

They are a bit narrow compared to the same style, same size, in different color I tried on in a store. I have worn this specific shoe for years. First time I experienced this concern

Shoes strings are very short. I've worn ASICS for over 20 years with a new pair several times a year. These are ok but hard to double knot. I have narrow feet.

They don't have enough cushion, I ran in them a few times and it just doesn't feel like it has much support. Disappointed with this purchase.

I've been running in Gel Kayanos for years and have loved the support they've provided until now. This model seems scaled back and shorter in the heel so that it very easily feels like it's slipping off. The previous models were "taller" in the heel and provided more heel support and felt a bit sturdier overall while still very light to run in. I bought these without trying them on assuming that I'd be pleased because I've had such good luck in the past. In fact, I'm on the website now hoping for the next model's release and decided to write a review. Hopefully the next design will revert back to more heel support.

I'm a faithful Kayano wearer for decades. This newest model has the shortest shoe laces! I can hardly tie them....thank goodness I don't double knot my shoes because it would be impossible. Fit is different than other years. Disappointed in the changes

I have worn asics my entire life. I have loved asics and been very loyal to the brand. Although, I am very frustrated with the past few pairs I've purchased. I bought this pair after 2 of the exact same shoes (another style) both had pieces come off the bottom of the shoe. I received these Kayano style and they are beautiful, but within a few runs the fabric is tearing a lot around the ankle, which has never happened to me in any other shoe. Also the shoes squeak terribly for some reason when I walk. I am actually considering another brand of shoes as I just feel the quality is diminishing.

Love the design of the pink and black however the shoes were very uncomfortable. I ended up having to return them. I have three other pairs of the Kayano 27 but these fit much differently. Also the shoe laces were much smaller than the others as well.

I love the color. I love the design. They were very stiff on my feet and too hard I needed more cushion.

not like they used to be....to...I keep hoping but...just not as comfortable for the money.

Had high hopes but the way the shoe is made in the front, makes a weird crease that hurts my big toe.
