By far, these are the most comfortable and supportive sneakers I've ever worn. I usually need a break-in period with all shoes but these fit perfectly from day 1. They're really cute, too!

Absolutely my favorite Kayano so far. Absolutely elegant design. LOVE the throw back to 80s stickers with this iridescent green dragonfly sparky and glitter in heal support. The support and finally appropriate length laces.

They fit really well. I just wasn’t a fan of the “pink “ around the sole of the shoe. Wish there was less of it

Love this shoe! It is a tad more narrow through the instep which really gives me the support I need in that part of my foot. The toe box is plenty wide for my arthritic toes where I need some wiggle room. This shoe helps me with my balance when walking which is important as I am in my late 70's.

I LOVE my new Gel-Kayano 27 running shoes! It feels like I'm running on cushioned mattresses.

So, I have been wearing Brooks' Adrenaline for so many years because I over-pronate and their Adrenaline has the guard rails and great support. I started wearing them when it was at their #9 model and wore them through to current (20) but they seem to be falling apart more quickly than they used to and I don't wear them any longer for running, just walking and so I couldn't see spending $120 for another pair every few months but couldn't find a similar style from any other brand until now. I love these Asics. And while I haven't worn them out and about, they feel similar to the Adrenaline but perhaps have a little more cushioning and stability. We will see how long they last but for now, I am pleased!

I have several pairs of ASICS an they're overall great shoes. This specific pair is by far the best. They were so comfortable from the beginning.

Good support and cushioning. Also, works well with my customer orthotics when I choose to use them.

I’ve been needing a pair of workout shoes and these are good. Nice and sturdy support and roomy in the toe box for my little wide feed.

They fit perfect right out of the box. Just what I needed for a sore toe. I’ve wore them for four days all day on my feet and no more sore toe. Highly recommend.

I usually wear Gel Nimbus but this time went with Kyano to get the size and color I wanted. I will definitely buy these again. I usually have to put orthotics in my shoes but I don't with these. They are perfectly comfortable.

Reliable, comfortable shoe. All i ever buy and probably pushing over 3000 miles of running in these shoes. I switch out about every 400-500 miles.

I have been wearing Kayanos for at least 5 years. They are the best feeling and looking stability shoe for overpronation (IMO), and works wonders for my plantar fasciitis. Not all models of this shoe are the same. These are great! Although I feel they run a bit small especially in the toe box. I returned my first pair and ordered half a size larger, they are perfect!

I wear an 8 1/2 in other shoes but in running shoes I wear a 9 1/2. The 9 1/2 fit perfectly.
Usually wear Brooks Adrenaline but read they had a redesign and decided to try the ASICS.
I have plantar fasciitis and need a supportive arch - arch is great, no problems breaking them in. So far a great shoe!

Tried this and the Gel 2000-8 and the later was better for me. This shoe rolled my foot to the inside. Stability and my stance felt off. Other than that it was a comfortable shoe with good cushioning.

LOVE Asics and particularly Kayanos! My latest have just enough spark colors to give me a boost on my walks!

Well .. you can try Hoka and Brooks, but bet you come back to Asics!

I wear Gel Kayanos, and I bought this pair for my daughter who was looking for a shoe with superior stability. She loves them and the extra stability they provide.
