As expected. Decent shoe. Very good support. As supportive as Hokas? Of course not. Especially not as supportive in the toe area. But less expensive!

Not sure what happened to asics sizing. I have worn asics for 15 years but all of the sudden I can't seem to figure out what size im supposed to buy.
These, along with cumulus and novablast, have all been much too large- even when sizing down.

Best shoe I've ever tried. I get shin splints because I'm heavier - now I'm running double the duration. They make me land on my full foot, too. Also, one of the only shoes that come in EXTRA WIDE. Nice!

The fit was fine, but I purchased the wrong ones. I did not want the kind that are rounded on the bottom. I was wanting the old school kind like a normal sneaker.

These are by far, the best court shoes that I have found for officiating basketball! They are incredibly light and comfortable, yet stable enough to get me through an entire game in comfort.

Returning to Asics after 15+ years. Great shoe to fit my custom orthotic. It took about 9 miles to break them in and after that they do feel great. Wish for a little more cushion on the forefoot but love the weight. Makes a great 5k shoe!

These were ordered for my husband. He is stating there are wider than the other gel kayanos that I have been ordering for him for the past several years.

Why does Asics feel the need to continually change the sizing and shape of their shoes! The Kayano 30 toe box is noticeably smaller than the 25-29. As a long time Kayano user I now have to find a new shoe, likely will look outside Asics to find a brand that doesn't change things for no reason every year

I bought my first pair last year to run the OKC Memorial half. They felt so good and really helped my feet feel comfortable during the whole race. I bought a second pair a few months ago to replace my first pair and I bought a pair for my son who will be running his first half marathon with me in April.

I have a pair of gel nimbus extra wide that fit perfect, these fit well in the toe box, but tight in the mid foot.

I order a mens shoe that is wide so that I can insert my own insoles and this shoe fit perfectly. It has great cushioning of the sole, which I really need as well.

I love the extra cushion and heal support in the Kayano 30. Significantly more comfortable than a Kayano 29 or earlier. I hope that Kayano 31 built upon the strengths of the Kayano 30, because it was a great improvement.

They are lighter. But compared to the 28s, I think they're a little smaller and the heel lock is a little weaker.

Most comfortable sneaker I have ever bought! I never knew that overpronation "flat feet" could be treated with the right sneaker - The Gel-Kayano 30!!!!!!!!!!!

Very supportive shoe. While I wear a size 15 I also have a narrow foot and find that this shoe as well as many other ASICS models support my feet very well. The shoe absorbs the impact when running and/or walking extremely well too.

This shoe is amazing. I was having issues with my plantar facsitis and this shoe helps to ease the pain and support your foot as others do not. Great product very comfortable. Tried other high price brands none matched the comfort and support as these shoes do. Would highly recommended.

I have put in 900 hours (based off a 40 hr work week) of overtime since 3/24/2024 on my feet all day for my job. Not once did my feet hurt, nor my back!

Overall good construction and materials
Unfortunately for me the Hoka hype also spread to this runner shoe. I didnt pay attention when buying to see the large difference between 28 and 30. Too tall too much pad. Went from 28 to 40 mm in the back. Drop is the same. So hard today to convince industry that padding is not good - just goes higher every year. Too bad - for me at least I cannot wear and cannot return since used them twice
