I was advised by my Chiropracter to buy HOKAs for stability and comfort on my feet. I went into the store asking for the HOKA Bondi 8 or Gaviotta 5. The salesman asked me what were my goals with a shoe and I told him and he wanted me to be open to the best shoe for me not what "I thought was the best shoe for me based on some one else's recommendation." He had me try on four models, New Balance, Hoka Bondi 8 and Hoka Gaviotta 5, and the Asics Kayano 30. Bottomline the Asics Kayano 30 was the hands down winner. The shoe fits like a glove and the stability and cushioning is amazing. I bought two pairs I was so convinced, one for work one for walking/hiking. I have always liked Asics when I was a competitive runner and this shoe has really upped their game.

This shoe is a winner, definitely recommend to give it a try if you're looking for stability and supreme comfort!

These shoes are not worth the money and ASICS does not stand behind their product. I have never had an issue with numbness in the ball of my foot until wearing the Kayano 30. When I contacted customer service regarding the issue I was told that they to don’t replace or refund shoes for “fit and feel” issues. To make things worse, the shoelace on the right shoes was six inches longer than the one on the left. ASICS refused to replace the laces stating “thelaces come with the shoe” and they do not have replacement laces for individual shoes. You are taking a $160 gamble when you buy these shoes from ASICS online. You need to be certain the “fit and feel” is spot on for you, because they will only refund you money for visible defects in the shoe itself.

I recommend you spend yourmoney with a company that stands behind its product.

I’ve been wearing Gel-Kayano’s for many years, always in the same size. My last pair were the Kayano 27’s and they were a perfect fit. Imagine my surprise when I bought this pair and the toe box was uncomfortably tight. I had received a 10% off discount when I purchased the shoes, so I contacted customer service thinking to exchange the pair for a larger size. I was told repeatedly that the 10% discount is a one use discount and that they couldn’t help me with exchanging for a larger size. It was actually comical, because they advised within the same phone call that one should purchase their same shoe size when buying within the same brand/style as a general rule, but then also stated that going from the 27’s to the 30’s was a large jump and of course there would be ... MoreI’ve been wearing Gel-Kayano’s for many years, always in the same size.

I was told that they would ask their supervisor to see if they could provide me with a discount on the larger size and send me an email with the results. The email came back saying “I'm sorry but we cannot provide the 10% discount as it's for one-time use only”. I’m assuming “asking their supervisor” was just to get me off of the phone. I will be returning the shoes and purchasing from a different brand as ASICS clearly cares more about inflating their quarterly earnings than keeping loyal customers. This entire experience was hugely disappointing.

I bought these for my daughter and.they hurt her feet after wearing them only 45 minutes. blisters. They were the same size as her previous ones yet didn’t fit the same. Customer service is very strict on only returning a completely new shoe having not worn it at all even if you have it a short time. They referred me to Warranty who obviously didn’t look at what I sent because the asked for the same information plus other things seemingly to make it as difficult and cumbersome as possible to return . I was surprised their customer service was so poor. They even refuse to buy a supervisor or manager on the line. If you must buy this shoe, I wouldn’t buy it direct because of their poor customer relations. With so many other options, I suggest buying a different shoe ... MoreI bought these for my daughter and.they hurt her feet after wearing them only 45 minutes. blisters.

After wearing Kayanos for the past 12 years for daily walking, this will be my last pair. The shoe build and fit has changed so much that it no longer works for me. The toe box seems more narrow and shallow. The first time I wore them, I got a painful blister on the medial side of my right foot near my heel. When I reached out to customer service, I was told no refunds or exchanges on shoes that have been worn outside. I have continued to try and break them in, since I can’t afford to replace them. After wearing them 6-7 times, they are still the most uncomfortable athletic shoes I have ever owned. This is so unfortunate, as I’ve probably had 12-14 pair of Kayanos over the years and they have been comfortable right out of the box. My next pair will be from a ... MoreAfter wearing Kayanos for the past 12 years for daily walking, this will be my last pair.

I'd give 0 star for these shoes. It's the second time I buy Asics that did not last too long. Both shoes had big holes in the heels after just 3 months of use. I contacted customer and warranty service. After sending photos, they basically told me that it was my fault. The defects were due to use, not to its poor quality. They were so "nice and kind" that they even sent me a link with tips "how to wear my shoes". After years and years having shoes from many brands (never had shoes with holes in the heels), now Asics wants to teach me how to wear my shoes. So, I contacted then again, and then I got another email that ends with the following words: This claim determination has been confirmed and will not be reviewed further.

This shoes is very roomy and comfortable to wear at first. The feedback is completely different from previous generations. I bought it In November 23 and wear it from Marunochi store to Gynza. Then I took a taxi to omote-sando. Total time is about two hours and I felt pain at bottom of my foot near heel on both feet at exactly same spot. The pain continues after I took shoes off and didn’t stop until I took pain killer. While I was walking or riding, I never felt a hint of discomfort. But the pain was suddenly popped up to max pain without gradually appearing. It was like an instant switch. I didn’t run, fall, or tripped. I have no idea why it happened and it didn’t happen before I switch this shoes or after. So I am very confident it was this shoe caused my pain. I ... MoreThis shoes is very roomy and comfortable to wear at first. The feedback is completely different from previous generations.

When I first tried these on, they felt great. I need a stability shoe due to plantar fasciitis & neuroma issues. This shoe is billed as a stability shoe, but now that I've worn it several times, I feel the opposite of stability. Maybe it's because of the cushioning, but I feel like my feet are constantly moving around inside the shoe as I walk. The result is more foot pain and not less. Now I have a basically brand new pair of shoes that I don't want to wear. Unfortunately Asics does not have a "comfort guarantee" like Brooks & Hoka do.I gave 2 stars because the quality of the construction and materials. (plus they look nice)I'm disappointed in this purchase and would not recommend this shoe as an alternate to the Brooks Beast or the Hoke Gaviota.
Good cushioning and shock absorption, however, I prefer my Asics Gel Nimbus 23s. I should have ordered what I was familiar with, but I wanted to try something new. These are OK, but the heel folds in slightly when I put them on and the tongue seems very short, which is slightly annoying when I am putting them on. The sole of the heel is also very wide and not particularly cute. Once they are on, they are OK, but I prefer the spring I get from the Gel Nimbus when running, and those don't have the folding heel and short tongue issues that these do. I think these are probably better for stability, but I don't normally have problems with that. I returned the first pair because they run a little shorter than the Gel Nimbus, so by the time I got the second pair, I didn't ... MoreGood cushioning and shock absorption, however, I prefer my Asics Gel Nimbus 23s.

I bought this new Kayano when it first came out because I am interesting in the 4D guidance approach to stability, rather than a medial post. The shoe now guides you towards running through the center of your foot, rather then pushing you towards center mass with dense foam underneath your arch. It still supports your pronation, but uses a wider base and a thicker sidewall to hold your foot up. Similar to that of Hoka or Brooks shoes, but I like the Asics way the most so far. The shoe has been great. Contrary to other reviews I do not have an issue with the sizing, I can run in 11.5, but get 12's because I get ingrowns and it fits as I'd hope. The cushioning is fantastic, the stability is not what it used to be, it is definitely less aggressive now, but that is the ... MoreI bought this new Kayano when it first came out because I am interesting in the 4D guidance approach to stability, rather than a medial post.

The cushioning is fantastic, the stability is not what it used to be, it is definitely less aggressive now, but that is the goal and it still does the job well. I 100% recommend this shoe to runners looking for some stability in their shoes, but it is no longer going to support those with more severe pronation as much as they want and is moving away from what many walkers in my store tend to ask for. Unfortunately this is the future of running shoes (following Hoka's footsteps to be honest), so if you don't like it grab the Kayano 29 asap.The rocker has felt great on my runs, the cushion is soft and dense which I love, and the fit is very consistent arch wise and width wise for Asics (a touch narrower in the heel, but roomy toe box similar to Brooks). It has felt great for anything from speed work to my longer runs, though those are only 6 miles right now. Great shoe, but if you are not sure, go to your local running store and try it on if you can.
