I have been purchasing Asic gel Kayano for several year. I was very happy with the previous shoe. These are no where near the quality of my previous Asic. The design & materials are inferior compared to the other Asics I purchased.
The best running shoe I have ever had!! I got fitted at a local running store, where I bought my first pair. When I needed new ones I was so happy to see that REI carried them. Best support and I can run without my knees in pain during and after.
Asics are my go to shoes. For many years I have worn the Gel-Kayano for long-distance running; however, recently purchased the 32 for indoor walking. This shoe used to fit my foot like a glove providing excellent support for pronation. However, since the structural changes, this is no longer the case. Overall, the 32 shoe is comfortable and good quality but lacks the support I am looking for. I don't usually give ratings but I hope the company considers our feedback in future design models.
Finally back to roomy, comfortable Kayanos! The best shoe for a blend of motion control and cushioning.
I really like the new finger grips in the heel and the tongue, it makes it very easy to slip the shoes on quickly without damaging the heel cup.
This is the second pair of Asics Gel Kayano 32s I've ordered from REI. Because of a bunion, I've started to order wide width shoes, and these were still available. So I figured, I'd better stock up. Both pairs were black and white - basic, but boring. Please carry more colors in various widths.
These shoes are crucial for my run! I would often end a run with pain in my arches or heel. I started to focus on my form and it helped but these shoes really allowed me to take off with no pain! I also used them for a trip to Disneyland and my knees had no pain throughout the 3 days!
I went to a local running store a few years ago to be fitted. They recommended me these because I was having knee pain. Ever since wearing this line from asics I can do any distance of running without my knees acting up.
Why just black!?!?! So silly. I want COLOR even with my narrow feet. In addition, the mesh is poor quality and tears easily. Please go back to previous year shoes, they were MUCH better.
