Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Kayano® 30

These shoes looked fine at first, but after wearing them a few days, my toes starting hurting. I think the difference between these shoes and Nimbus that I have always purchased was in the firmness of the insole. There was no give to it. Stiff as a board. They didn't work for me.

These are the most comfortable running shoes I have ever owned. The cushion absorbs and provides my feet protection from hard surfaces. I will be buying these every year.

Ive ran on Hoka and Adidas Boost for the last 20 years, this blows them away specially the boost

Just what you would expect from Kayano. The shoe is very comfortable and good looking. I am in my feet all day and these shoes just make it easier in my feet.

Not as good as previous versions. The changes they made are not better.

Great fit Great fit timely delivery beautiful shoes

These shoes are really comfortable, I use these for work at the hospital and they are very comfortable for walking around the building. My only concern is that the shoes are very wide on the bottom where the cushion is so be mindful of where you walk. Id definitely recommend these shoes for work or for fitness

Best Kayano yet! Heavily cushioned without the bulky look. Ive already ordered my second pair.

Very comfortable for a job being on feet on concrete all day.

Its a lot softer than previous Kayanos. Way different, the softness does not bounce, it sinks. Previous kayano models I ran with, the hardness was bouncy and provided a lift-off effect this one just doesnt. It is still a kayano, amazingly comfortable, but different.

This is perhaps the best running shoe I have ever owned. I have many, many running shoes: On, New Balance, Brooks, Saucony, Nike, Under Armour, Reebok, Addidas, Hoka and a few of each of these running running shoes often from the same company. Perhaps this is a sign of an illness or addiction, however since I am a professor and a psychologist maybe I am just a little eccentricity. This one hits the sport for me as a heal striker it starts off comfortably and as a big guy it handles some pronation and feels great-Well designed and executed. I enjoy the research and running so I will continue to read and test shoes, but for now I will probably get a few of these in different colors to wear to my classes, to run and to knock about.

Excellent stability and cushioning. I have the extra wide. Wish they came in more variety of colors. Very limited in this width.

Almost perfect for fallen arches and flat feet with bunions. It's the closest you will get to custom orthotics regarding fallen arches and flat feet with bunions. Keep in mind that bunions can still be an issue. It is recommended for you to not lace up the first run on the shoe to loosen up the toe box and always get a extra wide size. These shoes do fit a little tight on the side and I got the widest but I really prefer them to be 6E instead of 4E. I'll take what they have right now.

Great shoes. Comfort and stability are notably better than the 29s.

The 28 & 29 extra wide versions that I've used have been very comfortable. The 30 extra wide are the tightest, unfortunately. I had to return the product.

Has a lot of cushion without that squishy feeling and provides ample support. I have worn these shoes for threshold runs and a 13 mile easy effort training run. Don't expect them to be efficient enough for fast racing, but if you want cushion and support from a shoe that can go the miles and still perform well for threshold runs than this shoe may be for you.

Good fit. Doesnt slip or shift about. After recovering from spine surgery these are a dream for fitness walking. Im a fan!

Best shoes Ive ever worn!!! For working out or just walking around all day

The best shoes I ever wear for running. Is a game changer for ASICS.

When I first tried these on, I loved how they felt like they pushed me forward when I took a step. However, they're so tall that they do look a bit funny. After walking in them for several hours, I developed blisters on my heel and toes, which never happens with other shoes of mine. The support it gives is actually just rubbing in the wrong places. I bought online a couple weeks ago, and I don't think I can return them since they've been used now. It was true to size with other brands.

Feels great! I upgraded from the Kayano 28s, and the 30s are noticeably more cushiony. It took a week for my feet to get used to them, but now they are super comfortable. As with previous Kayano models, I sized up half a size.

Had been looking for this shoe for a year and finally found it. The 4D block is perfect for my high arches, the cushioning is fat but not too much, and they are light given both. I havent run in anything else since I got them.

Good for walking especially in the airports, long distances walks with toddlers stroller, also running with stroller.

Not so happy! I have the GET-KAYANO 26 and was super happy which is why I bought these with eyes closed. But after wearing it for a few times I have noticed few things. 1) Sole/Base is way too fat which makes the walk a bit bouncy. Like walking on a trampoline. 2) This could be how my foot falls but I noticed that the outer edge around the heal area is "raised" which gives a feeling of instability. Maybe it will reduce after usage but currently hurts my ankle.
