Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Kayano® 30

Took these on 30 min walk and got multiple blisters under my heels. At first try on they felt so comfy and supportive. Cant wear them

The fit in the toe box has changed. My pinkey toe feels sore from rubbing the side of the shoe. Other than that it feels normal.

Excellent fit and support is the hallmark of ASICS shoes. I have been wearing ASICS for over 20 years for both work and exercise/play to properly support my overpronated feet. They keep me on the go!

Toe base is narrow. Otherwise a good looking and fitting sneaker

I'm a loyal kayano fan but I think this is where I end my relationship with this shoe. The new models (last two years) features a massive bulky sole that just plain feels strange underfoot.

I love the Gel Kayanos for running, I think this is about my 15th pair. I need a lot of support and these shoes work great for that!

Im not liking the new added cushioning in this mode. Makes the shoes seem a little unstable. I had no idea there had been a change - otherwise I would never have bought them. Im pretty disappointed in them.

The shoe fits great and performs perfectly. I dont like how thick the sole is though aesthetically - it just looks too clunky and big- particularly from the side view. I also feel because the sole is so thick and flat that I am relying too much on the balance provided by the shoe structure than being challenged to find my own balance say with balance exercises when standing on one leg. ASICS shoes have always served me well and I will buy more shoes in the future- but not any with such a very thick platform.

As this is my first pair of asics, I purchased a size a 1/2 size bigger. Its wearable but a little wide and a little long....but not so much that I think the lower size would be big enough. I plan to go to a retail store and try an 11 instead of this 11.5 to see if its better. I love the feel though!

Great shoes for people who need support for standing and being on thier feet most of the day.

Changed the design. These are Wide, chunky, and sloppy. Ive been running in gel kayanos for 25 years and this year, I sadly was forced by ASICS to switch to another brand and model. These shoes are laughable. It feels like running with Donald Duck shoes on. So sad that ASICS went trendy instead of sticking with shoes that work for runners.

They fit and feel great. I gave up waiting for wide overpronation in white or beige type colors and got these.

I got these because my Physical Therapist advised they would help with stability. They do not. I find I trip while walking and they just arent what I expected. Wish I couldve returned them, very expensive. Will not wear them anymore. Probably will donate some where.

I love these shoes. So comfortable and fit is great.

Im a teacher who is on my feet all day. The Gel Kayano 30 give great support and comfort to my feet all day. The width is excellent! I appreciate being able to find a wide range of colors, styles, and comfort levels at ASICS.

Great sneaker, very comfortable and I have feet problems. Highly recommend

After trying other brands I am happy to be back wearing these awesome Asics shoes. They give ny flat feet the support i need. My plantar fasciitis is healing, my knees don't hurt and these are great for all my cross training. The sole is more bulky than in the past, but it allows for stabilization with all movement including side to side. I highly recommend them and they look great. Better than another popular brand that is newer to the market. Asics has always been the best shoe for my flat feet.

The fit is wonderful for my foot. Hugs my arch perfectly and gives my toes space to wiggle. My foot does not slide around in this shoe and the cushion amount is great. I would recommend this shoe.

I've been wearing kayanos exclusively for almost a decade and these just don't hit the mark. They wore through on the ankle within two months of light walking and chasing my toddler. It's just not as durable as the 29s. Now I have to actually think about buying shoes again (prematurely) and now I actually have to *think* about buying shoes again instead of just blindly grabbing the new kayanos.

Stable but low cushion. Impact is felt.Feels narrow as well.

i have been running in gel-kayano's for 30 years. tried other shoes, always go back! ive run many marathons and shorter distances. Honestly, I'm not fast. never have been, but I'm still running at 60!

Great shoe and service. The shoes have generous heel cushioning and excellent stability. They have made my walking and running much more comfortable.

They are not what I expected. They are pretty. They really dont have the amount of cushion that I was hoping for

Well cushioned, yet stable. Appreciate the wide toe box. No break-in required.

Ive worn and loved previous versions of Kayanos. This version is far too roomy vertically hits too high at the ankle, so that I got terrible blisters above my running sock line, unlike with any previous version of the many ASICS Ive worn over two decades.
