Love them! These are my 19th pair of Kayanos, better than the last! Getting a to of compliments on the black on black too.

Love the color! These shoes are so comfortable, I wore them straight out of the box and on a 5 mile run on a path and hard-packed trail. My feet feel great!

I like shoes with cushion and these are perfect. I have been wearing Asics for many years and have always been satisfied. The toe box is comfortable, good arch support and they have a tongue which some others don't ( I had tried some other brand). Won't change to another brand because I love these shoes.

Hands down this is my favorite shoe that Asics makes! I have had 4 pairs of kayano's before this one and they never disappoint! They have the right amount of support considering I have fallen arches and they're always super lightweight. I wear them for work because I'm on my feet a lot. I also run and walk during the week and average about 40 miles a week so they are an excellent choice as a running shoe. I wasn't too crazy about the woven upper on this version but it has definitely grown on me. I was scared it wouldn't be as breathable as the mesh that I am used to, but once again it has not disappointed. It actually makes the shoes super easy to clean. I have even gotten my dad a pair and he's a veteran with some pretty beat up joints and needs really great support in his shoes. I think they have been one of his favorite so far. He has actually ventured out to try a few other pairs of Asics but it's definitely a brand fan.

Very pleased with this shoe - my 26's were destroyed by a dog using it (and my foot inside) for a chew toy. The 27 is very comfortable, and the arch support was apparent. I marked felt true to size, but there is a little extra room in the upper foot area, but it's not a minus for me. It's summer-ish, so I'm wearing thin socks, I'll be pleased with the little bit of extra room when I move to thicker socks. Would recommend for folks with arch issues - I have minimal arches plus plantar fasciitis.

I love these shoes, they are the most comfortable shoes I have ever bought and I have flat feet. With that being said, I have a difficult time finding cute shoes that are comfortable for my feet.

Very comfortable! I work 12 hour shifts on my feet and these are some of the most comfortable shoes I've ever had. True fit.

This is the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. They look a bit clunky but it is well worth the trade-off for the cushy comfort.

These are the best "wides" I've ever bought. I haven't used the arch inserts I always need. These are wide but not for big feet, just wide ones. I haven't had foot pain since I've been wearing them, and bought a second pair the next week.

I've been wearing the Gel-Kayano for almost 10 years. This is by far the best version of the shoe. During my first run, I could tell that there was some additional cushion which added an extra spring in my step. The overall design is sleeker than the previous version. I'm considering buying another pair. I hate using my running shoes for regular wear, but these are so very comfortable.

Poor SupportGreat Support
I have the worst feet and have been through numerous shoes, wearing them only one, two or maybe three times before donating a perfectly good pair of expensive shoe because my feet would hurt. Between bunions, peripheral neuropathy, Rheumatoid Arthritis, poor arches, I didn’t think I would ever find a shoe that I could be comfortable wearing. However, this ASICS IS that shoe!! I have been able to walk my dog for 2-2.5 miles without my feet hurting! The arch support is awesome! The mesh top is so giving, even though I order a wide to help keep pressure off of my bunions and my toes that hurt so badly, my toes and bunions have not hurt one time since I got these shoes!!! Trust me when I say, I have bought numerous shoes and nothing has stayed in my house because if it hurts my feet, it is not staying here! My feet have hurt for years because I couldn’t find a shoe that didn’t hurt and I had to have something so I chose the path of least resistance, which was the shoe that hurt the least! Now I don’t have to do that! I will continue to purchases ASICS as long as they remain supportive in the arches, mesh tops, carry wides and have cushioning in the foot bed! Thank you ASICS for thinking of us with bad feet! My daughter also has bad feet and is a nurse, like her mother, and since I liked these so well, I bought a pair for her and sent them to her. She called me and asked if I sent her a pair of ASICS and I said yes. She said well she had just gotten home from going to buy some shoes for work with her husband but couldn’t find any that felt good and when she got home, they were at her front door! She was so happy as she loves them as much as I do!! Thank you ASICS!

For a stability running shoe I'm overwhelmed how instantly these running shoes have made such a difference. I expect usually to have to wear a shoe in but I haven't had to with these. Brilliant from the first run for me. Comfort is great.

I love my Gel Kayano 27. I have bought the shoe many times over the years, having switched from another shoe manufacturer. It is a perfect fits and I love the range of colours.

I normally take a UK 6.5 but went for UK7. I had previously had Gel Kanyano 24 and they were hard to wear in but finding these much easier. I am not a runner but walk a lot but find they are great runners.

Amazing shoes! I took them straight to a running paradise in Tyrol, Austria. I was really impressed and deeply impressed by how the gel part of the shoe reacted to the impact on the ground during the descent. It's about the fifteenth shoe from Asics that I have and I've always been satisfied.
