Easier walk with these Overpronator correction gel Kayanos. Some foot and back pain as my body readjusted to proper fitting shoe gear. By 4th wear no pain after use and feet very comfortable after 5 mile walk.
Ordered another pair.

Great supportive trainers for feet that roll inwards, and improved look. Note that the pure white colour will get dirty, managed to christen mine on the first wear.

Where have these been all my life?! I had the previous model Kayanos twice before these and loved them - I have been able to run comfortably for the first time in years after gaining weight with these one's and I'm over the moon. Asics always!!! They support my pronation, my calves and my knees particularly so my lower back is less strained. Genius technology.

Great support, comfortable and not too heavy. Will be buying another pair when they get my size back in.

I’ve been buying gel Kayanos since 2012 when I damaged a tendon fitness walking and the Kayanos were one of the rare styles of runnning shoes that enabled me to pop in an orthotic and get back on the road. Since then my love affair with Kayanos has been happy though occasionally bumpy. The Kayano 20’s were my absolute favorites despite their less than spectacular colors. The fit was amazing and the bounce I got walking in them gave me a lot of energy. The 21-22’s were good too but I took a hiatus for two years during the 23-24 period. I returned for the 25’s—great fit but too hard and the 26’s were good but they ran short. I just wanted the 20’s back. Enter the 27s. My prayers were definitely answered. The kayano 27’s are a great running shoe for me. I have long narrow feet and they fit perfectly. If anything the length is generous. The width is on the tighter side even for my narrow feet, and I’ve had to lace them more loosely until they stretch more. The springiness I get walking on them is amazing. It’s like walking on marshmallows. I’ve even been able to forgo orthotics a few times. My two caveats are the colors aren’t exactly great and ASICS has an issue with fit between colors so that my white Gel Kayanos which I got directly from ASICS are longer, narrower and springier than the navy ones I just got from Zappos. Even so, I’ll keep buying them.

Great support for over pronation and lovely soft soles make them the most comfortable shoes for me.

After having a variety of running shoes over the years, I decided to do some research into what I thought was going to be the best shoe for my style. I'm please to say I'm very happy with my choice of the Gel Kayano 27. They offer really good support, they are not heavy and are really comfy to run in. Ordering was easy from the Website and the shoes were delivered quickly.

I purchased the Kayano -27 last month. I am an active RN who has worn Kayano sneakers for years. I had a partial knee replacement 2 weeks ago. This sneaker did not disappoint! I am up to walking two blocks and the support and cushioning it gives with my physical therapy has been instrumental to my healing and success! Love this sneaker!

Excellent shoe! Been wearing the ASICS Kayano range for many years. Extremely comfortable and light. Just when I thought they were a perfect fit and comfort with each years model I buy they seem to consistently somehow always improve. I've worn many different brands in the past and NOTHING compares to ASICS. Phenomenal

I bought this like a month ago and I'm happy I did. They are comfortable and lite. I truly recommend them. I got 8 1/2 and its true to size. Fits perfect. Wish I can share a picture.

Superior Quality and Comfort. Ample room in front foot toe box. The stability and impact has been structured so well. Happy running many miles and will help greatly with injury prevention.

I've worn GT-2000 and Gel Kayano for over 15 years and currently using Gel Kayano 25, 26, & 27. The 27 is my new favorite for comfort and distance. The ride is a bit softer but in a good way (not spongy) particularly in the forefoot. I am not sure if this is due to change in material or the sole being a bit wider than previous models. For my UK 12, the 27 is 4+mm wider than the 25 or 26. Note when viewed from above the sole, particularly in the forefoot protrudes a bit more to the sides from the upper than prior models. Although, visually it is a bit disguised by shading the sole on one side. In addition to a better ride, the new design for the "Space Trusstic" arch component is greatly improved. Finally, a truss which does not retain mud (or worse) and is easy to clean. Really a great shoe. Congratulations to the design team.

I love this shoe! The support for my feet is amazing! I feel for the first time that my feet and ankles are properly supported and I have no strain or pain anywhere after the run!

My 4th pair of Gel Kayanos and the only shoes that I've never had blisters with. I've run 5ks to marathon distances in them and my last pair served me for over 500 miles. Expensive but worth every penny, particularly for heavier runners like me looking for a stability shoe.

Been running in Kayano's for a few years and was excited to get my hands on the Gel-Kayano 27. They have not disappointed. The mix of comfort and support for a really stable ride and a good weight distribution, have impressed me.

I overprotonate a lot when I run and I an so happy that these shoes support me in a way that alleviates the shin splints and knee pain I am prone to in other shoes. Highly recommend for overprotonaters.
