Love the shoes, very comfortable but nake sure to order 1/2 size larger than you normally do. I also found the shoes to be slightly narrower than new balance shoes I previously wore. Great thing, Zappos has a great return policy so so will find the shoe that fits perfectly for you.

Quality running shoes! I was using GEL-KAYANO 25 for about 2 years and finally decided to try out a newer version. I have very flat feet, so finding the right shoes is always a struggle. When I put the 28's on, at first I felt a little bit of pressure against the arch, but I very quickly got used to it, and stopped noticing it in minutes. I run on a treadmill for about 30 minutes 3 times a week and so far it has been a delight. If you have flat feet and looking for a comfortable sports shoe, the GEL-KAYANO 28 are a solid choice.

I have been running with these shoes for the past month! Amazing! I have a wide foot and the fit is spot on. No pain in legs,knees, and feet. Stability is amazing. Light weigh, and very comfortable. It's does get a little warm from running in toe box. Going to purchase another pair.

The Kayano has been my trusted running shoe for over 25 years. The 28 is one of the better models.

Great shoe. Comfortable, great arch support and plenty of cushioning on the midsole.

Smooth comfortable ride. My last pair was Kayano 22 so you can understand how long these shoes lasted. I did have other Kayano's in the past and they lasted a long time too. Back in the day I was doing more running, Now it's mostly walking and they a great for both. If I'm still alive when I need another pair it will be ASICS.

Incredibly comfortable. Like walking on clouds. Unfortunately, sole support is somewhat compromised by the softness.

5, 11', 180 lbs male runner, average 35 miles per week. For me, the 28's do not provide the support the 26 and 27's did. They feel too soft and like there is less between my feet and the ground. The balls and arches of my feet are sorer after running in them than in previous models. Would recommend over other shoes, but not other Kayano models.

I buy A LOT of Asics. They're basically the only sneaker I wear. This one came in the same size I always buy and it's TIGHT. So tight, in fact, I can't wear them for more than a few hours before they start to hurt my feet. Thought wearing them consistently might stretch them out, but it's been a few weeks now and I'm starting to look for someone to donate them to. Sad day.

The shoes felt comfortable but started falling apart after a few weeks. I didn't run in them, I just just used them for walking. The soles of the shoes is what is coming apart, very surprised how this is happening so fast.

After a week of using the shoes, the fabric strip holding the heel from above detached from its place and went down to the sole, causing three problems:
1. The heel started to jump out of the shoe because nothing held the heel from above.
2. Because the strap went down to the sole the foot moved forward and the shoe became small
3. Total discomfort and insecurity in using it.
The quality of the shoe is very poor. Do not recommend!

I have owned many many pair of Gel Kayano before. For years. Always been happy with them. This pair, however, collapses abs creases at the toe box. Both sides; although worse on the left shoe. I'm really unhappy with this pair. Not satisfied at all. Sorry to tell
you but it's the truth. I have another brand new pair at home (I am away on vacation) and hope they do not exhibit the same type of behavior. Always been happy with these shoes before. Thank you for listening.
Best,

The heel broke down on a brand new shoe and to save a dime your "all decisions final" group blamed it on user error and lost a loyal customer

Had these now for 1 month. Feels cramped in front on both feet causing callouses on outside of both toes. I ordered these after having the Kayano-27 which I loved and am now using again.

The quality of padding in the back is not good. It sinks down and never comes back. I have used the show for 10 days only.

The shoe looks great. No visible defects however I have something wrong with my right shoe. The shoe does not seem fully secured to rubber sole. Have popping that happens when I step or move my foot just right. Tried submitting warranty claim got denied due to no visible defects. I will not be buying the kayano again. It was not a cheap shoe and wore them less than 10x. I cannot wear anymore the instability causes more back pain for me. I will stick to Sonomas, and gel venture.

I love these shoes so much that I bought a pair in another color too. I did slip in a cushioning arch support, which helps them be all day shoes for active days. I think they are super cute, with their rounded toe box, but they may not be everyone’s taste. I found them to be true to size.
