Much smaller toe box on the 28s than on the 27s! Pinched toes created sore toenail beds : ( Same size and width ordered as on previous model and they are too uncomfortable to keep. Sending back.

Excellent fit on my size 11 flat foot. Very comfortable and will help immensely on my upcoming cross country trip visiting our National Parks. In fact I bought 2 pairs.

Great shoes. Very comfortable. I don't wear them to run because my knees won't allow me to run anymore. So I walk 2 - 3 miles a day and the shoes are wonderful. I recommend them. Be careful because the shoes can be tight and not wide enough. I use a 4E now and it is great. And I use a 12 1/2 rather than an 11 1/2 or a 12. So whatever your shoe size is, you may have to go a size higher to get the best fit. But it's worth it.

I just added walking to my workout routine. I am a 79 year old Brooks Addiction shoe user for years. I was looking for something with a little more comfort but was concerned with my issues with flat feet, pronation and balance issues (neuropathy) and having a solid base. This shoe falls into my category of a "running" style shoe which is considerably different from my Addiction shoe. All of my concern where addressed and supported with plus results with this shoe. The fit was as expected to be snug and is because of its style but with a comfortable fit with an excellent support base for flat feet, pronation issues and balance control. The plus I would say is in the comfort in walking from the heal to sole and toes. I was surprised to say the least. Excellent shoe with excellent results.

Loved everything about this shoe except something about its construction at the heel gave me two enormous blisters on the inside sides of my feet in the exact same spot. Hated having to return them.

"This has a true fit and is very comfortable". I bought these shoes for my son who is in marching band, and so far he says he is not as fatigued in his legs as he was with his previous shoes. They March up to 5 miles a day and being a large boy, we needed a shoe that could stay comfortable and supportive for his back and legs; these shoes came highly recommended just for this reason.

My son has wide feet and has been wearing ASICS for several years now. He is a student and wears it everyday. It is very comfortable.

I loved the look and general fit of this newest Kayano, and have owned and enjoyed several earlier versions. But I needed to return them because the left sneaker gave me a blister at the base of my foot near the heel after just a single run. I cannot tell is this is merely a defect in workmanship, because right sneaker did not pose this problem. I might even try another pair to test that theory. But I cannot hold onto sneakers that harm my feet.

Has the support of the kayano 27 but feels a little cushier on the ride.

I submitted a refund request. And have heard nothing. The backnof one of the shoes collapsed and the padding moved to the base.

These shoes are comfortable and feel broken in right out of the box. The shoes are very comfortable but.After a week break in period of everyday wear I decided to do a 5 mile walk. After 5 miles the front part of my feet between the toes and arch were in a lot of pain. I'm 6'4", 240 lbs. I don't think this shoe is built to withstand the forces of heavier individuals.

I have had kayanos previous to these shoes and they are always super comfortable. Most recently I had the 26s. I was skeptical to believe that shoes could get any more comfortable, but somehow ASICS managed to do it with the 28s. I can wear them all day and not have my feet hurt when I come hole.

The shoe felt good all around since I got it, and I've been using it for work. The only reason I'm marking it three stars is because it only took the pain away from my feet for the first week, and part of the soul is already tearing away after 3 weeks

Husband loved the color (why in the world are all men's shoes in black or grey only these days?!) but after about an hour of having them on his feet indoors it caused a shooting pain in the heel which he doesn't get with the GT1000.
