Well beautiful colors. Almost fit hubby as present for holidays. Unfortunately, long big toes got in the way and chopping them off wasn't an option.

Initially bought a size 10, my usual size, but the 10s felt small. Ordered the 10.5 and am really pleased with both the outstanding comfort of the shoe but also how well my feet feel supported. I bought these for hiking/walking primarily but they are so comfortable that I've used them most anytime.

Tread is already peeling off the bottom after very light usage.
Great fit, feel and support though.

Hard to believe, but the Gel-Kayano 31 is better than the dozens of Gel-Kayanos that I've worn since the mid-1990s. The shoe looks good, feels great, and is true to size (which it has been over the years). This year, they've added a pull tab on the back of the shoe that really makes putting them on a breeze. Please keep that pull tab on the next models -- great improvement!

They squeak and the front part of the toebox the plastic design on the sides rubs against toes. I do not recommend.

Need a well balanced shoe and this is it. The more I walk in it the stiffness loosens up

An excellent shoe. The most comfortable running shoe Ive had. Im a regular to this particular brand and style.. Its amazing, but Ive been making a mistake for years. Ive been buying a Regular width shoe because I have a narrow foot or thought so. Thats what theyve always told me. The front of my foot has pain when I run sometimes and I get blisters on my big toe. I finally went to a wide shoe realizing that with the repetitive pounding of the asphalt, a little more room would be possibly helpful and thats what it turned out to be. Something to consider if you have some pain in the front of your foot or are getting blisters

I have worn a pair of ASICS Kayano since I ran my first marathon in 2000 and many marathons, triathlons and three Ironman races since then.

Truly disappointed in the quality of the shoe!
After the first run of only 8km; the outsole is already peeling off at 4 places. My old Asic gel-kayano were indestructible. At this price point; i was expecting a durable pair of shoe. That werent the case!

I recently purchased my second pair of these shoes. They are great for people who need support. They wear well and are comfortable cool and durable.
Thank you ASICS .

The wide is not very wide. At least not as wide as other brand's wide.

Amazing shoe! The fit is perfect. The toe box is a little wider. The cushion is great. I have had two knee replacement surgeries only shoe to provide relief when I walk. So pleased with this shoe, I bought a second pair.

I buy a new pair of the latest in the Gel-Kayano series every year or two. These shoes fit me perfectly and accommodate my tendency to pronate, with great support and comfort,

They felt bulkier to me than last years model. Took a day or two to adjust. Brand new and seem to have a little more support, but again, they are brand new so maybe after a month of use will work the new out. I do feel like I am wearing old man walking shoes circa 1990s.

I am in my feet most of the day at work and the new Kayanos spoil my feet all day. The foam and gel combination has just the right blend of squishiness, shock absorption and support. I am a big fan of the ASICS line!

Best kayanos in years. Feels like walking on a cloud. No foot or leg fatigue after working 12 hour days!

I received my first ASICS when I was 18 in the military. I didnt know of their existence until Uncle Sam gave me my first pair for basic training. I have worn asics for 19 years and advocated them to many people because of their quality and performance. I bought these shoes and have had them for a week to 2 weeks and the rubber spots below are peeling up. I have only worn them like 5 times and have just simply walked in them. I called ASICS and they said they wouldnt give me back my money.
ASICS you have lost your way.
Do not buy this shoe.

I got this style in 3 colors and wow are they a game changer!! I recently went to a sports medicine doctor with a lot of pain in my ankle. Sadly, he told me between my flat feet and unsupportive Gucci loafers, I have created some serious issues. Im off the loafers til further notice () and my doctor told me to wear sneakers that are rated high in support and cushion. After looking at different brands and styles, I tried these. I kid you not, they took away my foot pain by about 95%!!!! I bought 2 more pair and wear these every day. I was limping in pain before, now Im great! I still wear my loafers at night but for running around all day, only Asics will do!
I saw some really pretty pink & silver new balance and bought them strictly based on the color. The claim was that they were supportive and comfortable, but I tried them on right next to the Asics and they were a literal joke. They felt so hard, unsupportive, and definitely no cushion. I had to return them. This shoe holds your foot perfectly so youre walking correctly on a cloud of cushion. Highest recommendation!

Have been on the hunt for shoes that are comfortable all day at work, im walking and standing for 8 hours and these have been perfect so far. Been wearing them everyday for a month and no more foot pain/discomfort. They were suggested by my podiatrist and he was right! They are a winner
