Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Kayano® 27 Tokyo

It's very comfortable but already starting to wear down the tread

The Gel Kayano 27 are super comfy. I have purchased many of ASICS over the years (they fit my feet perfectly). I would give them 5 stars if they would reinforce the big toe area more fully. It's the only flaw because my big toes go up when I walk or run and I always get a hole in the toes after a couple weeks. Other then that. I would buy them again. But PLEASE REINFORCE THE TOE AREA!

For 15 years or more, I have always bought size 9 Gel Kayanos and they have fit perfectly and been the most cushioning comfortable and durable running shoe I have ever had. Unfortunately, the GK 27 is too narrow up front and without wide or half sizes, like 9 1/2, I am afraid I can't get a good fit. My old size 9 Gel Kayano 25s still fit, so I think the tightness of the GK 27 is because the sizing of the 27 has changed. How do I get a GK shoe to fit me now? I don't want to abandon Asics shoes because I believe they are the best but I may have no choice. My fit issue is the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars.

They took several weeks to come. Shoes are great, though.

I love this shoe, been running in them for years! But what's up with the short shoe laces?? I can barely tie them, and with a thicker sock I will be in trouble. Did I get the kids laces?? Aspics, please send me new laces!

Shoes have helped my knees during running. A pretty god shoe!

This style was a little more narrow than other styles I have gotten in wide width.

So far, they are comfortable and feel good on my feet. I have had less than a month- so therefore I did not want to give them a 5 until I use them longer.

The GEL-KAYANO are very comfortable. Plenty of cushion in the heel and ball of foot.

I wish the soles were a bit thicker for pavement running since the gyms are closed. I definitely would benefit from a thicker sole or something to absorb the shock better. I wore these brand new shoes and still managed to get tendonitis from my runs within a month, practicing 3 runs a week.

I've never owned ASICS before, so I thought I'd give them a shot due to recommendation. I have severe over-pronation. These shoes seems to be helping my foot pain a little, or at least changing it. It makes my big toes hurt a little bit, but I'm wondering if that's because its putting my foot the correct way. For now though, I think purchasing them was a good choice.

Comfortable shoe. Front is different than previous models as it rubs polish off one toe.. A bit heavy & laces shorter than prior models but still a good stability shoe.

I bought these to replace an older pair of Kayanos in the same size 8.5 as my old pair and my Normal running shoe size (1/2 size up from Normal) and these didn’t fit and were more narrow and didn’t have room in the toe box. The sole doesn’t extend out to edge of shoe so not only was it right in toe box but my foot was hanging over edge of the shoe due to mesh extending beyond the sole. Returned for a 8.5 wide as the length was perfect and was recommended by a reviewer though wide never works for me because I only need room in toe box nor other areas. It didn’t work out as the wide added more fabric and volume on top and not quite enough toe box room in the right places. Disappointed not to replace my worn out Kayanos

Always love my Kayanos! Thank you for the health care discount!!!

I actually like the Kayano 26 better. More issues with toe room in the 27. I'm a fan of Kayano's in general. I've been wearing them for 5 years.

most comfortable shoes. I love the color. I have 0 complaints

Great fit and comfortable, but not for flat-footed runners.

Bought these sneakers to aide my flat feet, however, wish there were a little bit more support in that area. This is a sleek and very stylish looking shoe for ASICS in the white. Feel fully cushioned and can wear them all day at the hospital.

I wear my ASICS 8 hrs a day at work and love them ! I'm on my feet all day and these shoes are my favorite!

Love the look and feel of my new ASICS! My one complaint is that the toe area has a indent so it's not a smooth line. Other than that I love them.

Love the colors and feel of this show. Very comfortable for running and I use them to play tennis sometimes, my only complaints is I have a narrow foot and I feel the front portion of the shoe is too wide.

I think they run a little small but overall good fit and very comfortable. Fun colors and design.

I got my normal size but wonder if 1/2 size up would have been better. They are still comfortable even on the first day.
