I read an article that said these Ascics were super comfortable and great for flat feet. They were on sale so I took a chance. I am so glad I did. The first time I put them on and stood up, the soft supportive insoles were unbelievable. The fit was perfect, true to size. I have a narrow heel and the shoe was snug enough to keep my foot in the shoe. Lots of toe room. The fabric over my toes is soft and flexible. It breathes so my feet never feel hot.
I’ve worn them about a week and can honestly say they are the best fitting and most comfortable athletic shoes I’ve ever worn. They feel so good and I have no foot pain at all. My knees feel the best on walks they’ve felt in a long time. I haven’t worn any other shoes since I got them. That’s how great they are.
They are the most expensive athletic shoes I’ve ever had. I would never paid full price for them but I do believe that you get what you pay for. These are well made so I expect them to last a long, long time.
I would give these 10 stars if I could. They are fabulous shoes.
Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2024
Shoes arrived timely and are in immaculate, brand new condition. The color (I went for that fiery red) is beautiful and powerful. Fun on a nice day and will be cheerful on a grey or foggy day!
For those new to the tech specifications of running shoes: this is ASICS’s “state of the art shoe” which has both maximum cushioning and guidance.
Maximum cushioning is important for people who are older, heavier (or very tall) or people that have had an injury or are frail. But lots of cushioning is also great for the average person who simply works out a lot on a daily or weekly basis. (Or people that enjoy a more pillowy feeling.) It can also be preventative and protect against injuries or nasty things like plantar fasciitis or help with these issues.
Guidance is needed by lots of people who either pronate (your feet tend to lean / roll towards the inside) or supinate (your feet tend to lean / roll towards the outside.
The Kayano model has a built in guidance system which is important for mentioned pronators and supinators! But it is not needed by neutral runners (foot hits the road quite straight and steady). And it may irritate some neutral runners as it comes with a slightly more “constricted” feeling.
However, if you are an older person, unsteady on your feet (for whatever reason) or just had an injury, that model will also be great for a person who is normally a neutral runner (or walker).
While I am normally a neutral runner /walker and am neither old nor heavy weight, I had a bad injury a few months ago where I tore 2 ligaments in one foot. I am still not fully recovered. I still get a swollen foot or pain after longer walks and even short runs, and I still don’t fully trust my ankle/foot to behave and don’t bring me down again. Certainly don’t want to risk another injury triggered by the old one…
So both the maximum cushioning and the guidance are welcome.
Because I used to work for the marathon association and know a lot about running shoes (different brands and their models) and their tech specifications, I know about and appreciate all the benefits of this model and just ordered it for myself. Look forward to using it a lot 😊
If you are new to this brand:
The way ASICS shoes are designed/ tailored, they work well for people who are also comfortable wearing the following brands: Saucony, Brooks, Altra, HOKA. They might not work for people who are normally happy with Nike or New Balance.
One last thing: please guys, don’t waste your money on cheap no name sports shoes! You can do that with TShirts, without an impact on your health. But when it comes to sports shoes, please consider the higher price as a preventative investment in your body & health.
If you are debating whether the ASICS Gel Kayano is worth its price, go ahead and order, it is! 👍👍👍
