They are perfect. I wore out my 19s. Asics are the best fit for my feet. Nice sized toe box.

Gel Kayano 28 is my favorite kayano. After moving up to the 29, which I like as I have liked all my previous Kayanos, I prefer the 28 over the 29. The extra forefoot cushioning in the 29 was nice but I just like the 28 look and fit.

Since the late 1970s I've been a serial owner of Nike running shoes, starting w/ the LDVs. While I've occasionally tried other brands over the years, I always returned to Nike due to habit, brand loyalty, and frankly ease. Now that I'm in my late 50s, my age and years of daily runs w/ my over-pronation and plantar fasciitis had made running painful, injurious, and no longer enjoyable.
As a last chance effort to avoid giving up on running for good I decided to try another shoe. Based on the many glowing reviews and my brother's recommendation I decided to try Ascis Gel-Kayano 28s. I ordered a pair online and espite the size adjustment recommendation on the Ascis website to increase to a size 12.5 vs my 12 Nike size, I ordered size 12 and they fit perfectly.
My first run in these shoes changed my life. Their superior cushioning & support have not only mitigated the plantar pain while running, they have also improved my cadence and reduced my running inefficiencies so significantly that my running heart rate has dropped 10 bpm since switching to the Asics. These shoes have restored my joy and pleasure in running and every morning I can't wait to put them on and hit the road.
If there were not already enough benefits, I also love, love the Lite Show colors. I went with the Flash Red and they are awesome. I love these shoes so much I bought a second pair a week later so I have a replacement pair waiting for me once I've put 700 miles on the first pair. Thank you Asics for giving my feet a few more years of runs ahead.

This is a pretty awesome shoe. While I don't necessarily like the design as far as the sole of the shoe is concerned, but the comfort more than makes up for it

I bought these for my husband for working out/running and he loves them. He usually doesn't pay attention to how his shoes fit but he really likes these. Will be buying again.

Absolutely love these shoes: great fit, excellent comfortable, super breathability, and fantastic support. Everything about these are perfect for me and I'm definitely enjoying every mile I get from them, even on the dusty trail around Lake Mead. These are 44s (like all my other pairs) which fit great because the sizing is super consistent.

I have flat feet and find it incredibly difficult to find the right shoes. I tried these shoes for the first time and I am very happy with the purchase. The shoes are very comfortable, soft and beautiful. Especially the front of the shoe is wide. The shoes are made from high quality materials. The size and appearance match the description. Thank you so much for such a technological marvel!

Fantastic shoe for all day comfort walking and standing on my feet all day. great support and soft soles make this shoe my favorite with an average of 8000-12000 steps at work a day. One downfall is that they only last about 4 months due to my weight and size(6'4', 280ilbs) and a fractured bone in my right foot that never healed correctly and I loss cartilage so I have to change em out every 4 months to keep my foot happy but well worth the cost and avoiding reconstructive surgery. Katana 28 and katana 29's are my favorites and I experimented with a few others but these two keep my feet happy.

If you're looking for loud, these are loud! They're bright, they stand out from anywhere, and they're one of the few shades of nuclear pink available in men's fits.

I have wide, extremely flat feet (genetic, not fallen). These are the best shoes I've found in a long time. I just wish they came in more colors, and that Asics would make other models with the same internal profile (or if they do, that I could find those, too).

Feels awesome on the feet the only thing is I did not think about the color before ordering them. Other than matching it with clothing they are great. It has improved my stride.

Simply the best shoe ever. I've gone across brands and nothing touches Kayano.
