Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Kayano 31

Ordered them for my husband. He loves them!

Great shoe and comfy!

The shoes fit as expected since my feet fall in between sizes.

I believe this is my 12th pair of Kayano's. I wear out a pair each year running 4 miles a day. I have loved the consistency from year to year on the fit. I can buy a new pair, and immediately run my normal daily route, without discomfort of any kind. This newest model feels like there is a little more cushion in the sole than last years model (Kayano 30). The reason I say there is no arch support, is that I have to take out the flat liner, and use arch supports for my high arches. There are no off the shelf shoes with enough arch support for me.

Worth every penny. Wear a 13 4E and fit perfectly. More support than anything else I tried. Will definitely buy more of these. A bit pricey, but feet are happy.

These are perfect.

Shoes fit perfectly. Great looking too.

I’ve added new insoles for arch support

GREAT!!!!! Super supportive and the cushion is unreal !!!!!!! Going to buy several pairs before they change them up !!

I have only worn these twice so far and they fir very well. They seem to be comfortable. I am looking for a replacement for Ghosts, which I have worn for years, but am getting less miles out of them than I used too. These are just as comfortable for the short wear, but I will update after a long stretch and see how they compare.

fit is perfect. I like the support of these running shoes.

I like Asics because they have good arch support and excellent cushion, and I literally couldn't survive without them at work. My last pair were Gel-Nimbus though, and the difference in cushion between them is like day and night. These Gel-Kayanos felt very hard, with a solid and pronounced arch. Even after trying my insoles in them, standing in them became painful after a minute. I would not be able to wear these to work. Had to return.

First - I am 74 years old and used to be an avid runner. These shoes are awesome! I’d about given up finding shoes that fit my very wide foot. The ASICS 4E is wider than New Balance 6E. Great features of these ASICS Gel-Kayano 31: Very wide and tall in toe box. Heel is plenty wide enough and additionally is cupped so my foot does not slide around. Where the laces go into the she - the ‘eye’ is flat and keeps the laces in place. Cushion all around the inside of the shoe. If I were still a runner, this feature would have sold me in these shoes. As is, I just really like the feel. The sole gives me a very stable landing. Sole is very cushioned when walking. Only negative: Laces are not long enough to open the shoes for my tall instep. Minor issue. All in all, I just love these shoes!! I tried 5 other shoes (various brands) and was about to give up. So glad I found these. Highly recommend

Great sneakers. This is my third pair with this brand!

Perfect for 210# size 13EE guy.

Love them

Holds foot secure especially in the heel

Fit is great

Fits true to size. The shoes had a much needed update. The bottoms have more traction and the upper is very breathable.

My only complaint is that they squeak LOUDLY on smooth surfaces. I’ve put about 50 miles walking in them, and they are still embarrassing each time I walk inside.

Good size, good fit, feels much softer and has lower drop than Beast GTS 24.

The heel structure made these a bit hard to put on.
