These trainers are perfect as my feet are narrow and I have a very flat right foot. Very comfortable as I usually wear orthotics but don't need to with these ASICS. Really pleased with the purchase.

Upgraded from Gel-Nimbus 15 as needed more support. But beside more support the shoe feels just so much better! Great for short distances, great for longer ones, too (25km). Quite soft, so running on the roads is a breeze. Recommended!

Absolutely love them, feels like I am walking on pillows or clouds. Then I added my custom orthotics and boy oh boy do they feel great.

I've never owned a pair of Gel Kayano's before but following a number of rolled ankle injuries and plantar fasciitus in the other foot from overcompensating i thought I'd splash out and give them a go due to their support capabilities. I've owned them for a few weeks now and I can honestly say they are by far the best running/ exercise trainer i have ever owned. They are risiculously comfortable and well supported and i find that the shape fit my feet perfectly. I also really like that the last lace hole goes quite far back up to the ankle so you can really secure you're foot in it. The toe box is generous in width which also really suits me. Overall can't fault them and don't see myself going for other trainers in the future! I am aware though that these trainers won't solve all of my ankle injuries but they are a great support whilst i work on that in the gym (probably with these shoes on)

I am running in both the Kayano 26 & 27's at the moment. The 27 is a Great shoe for flat road surfaces and a little lighter than the 26. I prefer the 26 for off road trails. I would purchase both again, from an ASICS fan.

I love these shoes! I've been wearing ASICS for years and they are by far the best workout and walking shoes. I have flat feet and bunions. These shoes bring tremendous comfort to my feet!

I have a pair of the previous version so I ordered my usual 7.5 and they fit well. I’ve only taken them on one long walk, but they were fine. I’m not sure they’re worth the extra money over the previous model, and I wish Asics had better neutral colors. My old ones are black with hot pink and teal accents. I ordered the electric blue in these because I didn’t want another black pair, but Asics offered few other neutral options like a good steel gray with bright accents.

The most comfortable running shoe that I have ever had. Did my 18 miler training run for Virtual London Marathon with ease due to the stability , bounce and lightness of shoe. Brilliant and worth every penny. Congratulations ASICS.

I have been a long time consumer of Asics. The last few pairs either blew out to padding at the ankles or blew out my ankles with blisters. While I have only had the shoes for a few days, my daily use of them leaves me blister free.

I'd give these a 4.5 if I could. I bought the Gel Kayano 27's when they came out late in June. I have them in white with blue and lavender accents. I really like the color although they do get dirty easily. They're much springier than the 26's and the fit is longer and slimmer which is good for my long narrow feet. Often a medium in ASICS is the same width as a narrow in other shoes like Brooks. The fit is pretty great and the bounce is terrific. My negative is that the white ones fit differently than the navy blue ones I bought in the same size. The navy ones are slightly shorter and wider. And they're harder as well. I got another pair of white, blue and lavender and those are close to the fit of my 2.5 month old Gel Kayanos but they're not as bouncy and the laces are really short compared to the originals. I wish ASICS was more consistent on size. That notwithstanding, they're very comfortable. I've been able to walk without an orthotic for the first time in several years. And they seem to be holding up okay.

I ordered these in my regular size (9 regular width) and in the 9 wide as well after reading reviews mentioning a narrow fit. The regular fit looked wide to me when I took it out of the box but iwas marked as 9 regular. They fit perfectly with the socks I typically wear. Oddly, the Wide size was shor and narrow for fit!! Maybe it was mis-marked, but was a surprise! I did notice the regular width was made in Inodnesia and the Wide in Viet Nam. Perhaps there is a (significan!) manufacturing difference. The wides were about 1/2 siz too short and fit much snugger on the forefoot. I'm, keeping the "regular". I love the Kayanos and have been wearing them through many iterations. It's always a crap shoot for fit. I like the colors and quality but it's anyone's guess how any shoe will fit. Thankful for Zappo's good returns policies.
