If I wanted a Hoka, I would purchase a Hoka, not an Asics. This new design copies Hoka and it does nothing for my overpronation. Bring back the Gel Kayano anny model 22-27 and I promise your sales will increase. I’m not sure if the new design is an attempt to reduce production cost, but I am more likely to send $160 on a Gel Kayano 22-26 or even 27. Gel Kayano 28+ have been on a decline in structure, suppor, and comfort. Let those who want to buy a Homa have a completely new shoe and call it something else rather than changing a classic shoe many have been wearing for 15 years or longer. People are asking repeatedly in your comments for the older style and waving you for Brooks and New Balance. Please help save your customer base.

I’m an avid runner and needed to purchase a new pair of running shoes. I’m a huge fan of the Kayanos and have been running in them for years. I bought these out of brand loyalty and my love of these but I must say I’m very disappointed. They are too big and bulky on my feet and very heavy. I didn’t feel the heat as other runners did in there reviews. It makes my run quite uncomfortable which is not a good thing. I did a lot of research before I made my purchase which makes it all the more disappointing. I’m going to have to suck up the $165 bucks I paid for them and count it as a sunk cost. Starting over in my search for a new running shoe. Not happy with my purchase.

Gone is the shoe I’ve ran religiously in for 15 years and now it’s been replaced with a clunky platform shoe that feels like it’s taped on your foot with masking tape because the quality has gone down so much. Kayano set itself apart for years as being the highest stability shoe on the market with neat looking outer guide rail placement. Now it looks like every other shoe and doesn’t do the job it advertises. The width has gotten wider and the stack height is ridiculous, not to mention the stability has gone way down. Have a wide option for a reason, no need to widen the whole line. The 28 was the last decent Kayano, minus the heal material breaking down prematurely. Asics do yourself a favor and bring back the best stability shoe on the market and set yourself ...

As a long time Kayano wearer, I loved how versatile these shoes were, able to cope with most types of activity and any surface from the athletics track, to bitumen and gravel with no issues. I am now onto my 4th pair of Kayano 31's after having my previous pairs replaced after only 1.5 to 2 months wear due to faults including soles and uppers coming apart. I was ready to switch to another brand however decided to visit my local ASICS store before jumping ship. The shop assistant was fantastic, and was able to identify why I had potentially been having these issues with the Kayano 30s and 31s. While the newer model is great for walking (and they are so comfortable for this), unfortunately my much loved Kayanos are no longer suitable for my faster runs (I now also ...

They are not the Kayano they used to be but ASICS now offers so many more options than they used to.I have my fingers crossed this pair holds up just being used for walks, as this model is so much better than the 30s in every aspect.
#gifted these shoes from a week ago, these have been my go-to shoe this week for recovery. These are the perfect stability shoe, especially for my easy recovery runs. These are ideal for runners looking for a combination of moderate support and high-cushioning, which I love in a shoe. One thing I kept thinking to, was the incredible comfortable landing, which I could feel throughout the entirety of my runs. From my opinion, the materials feel sturdy, and I can tell this model is built to last plenty of miles; in an everyday training shoe. The new slightly thinner upper provides a secure, plush fit while still providing some wiggle room through the length of the shoe. One other key feature, is the outsole traction is quite good on both dry and wet road, which I have ... More#gifted these shoes from a week ago, these have been my go-to shoe this week for recovery.

Asics seem to always stretch out, and the sole gets worn out too quickly. My last 3 pairs havent lasted for longer than 6 months upon which they become too big. I only Walk in them, and so it seems they aren't made to last. Not even daily walks - just 2 to 3 times a week. At first they feel good, but give it a few months and you find yourself having to continually tighten the shoelaces because your foot starts moving around in the shoe. Seems the fabrics are not good quality and stretch out over time. I have swapped to toher brands because at $250+ a pair, I expect more from them. My $30 flip flops last longer than the asics sneakers.
I have been a loyal Kayano wearer for over 15 years. Unfortunately since the release of the 30's I have been having issues with them and have had to return 6 out of 7 pairs due to faults including soles separating from uppers, stitching falling apart and parts of the sole peeling off, after very minimal wear. This most recent model is seriously flawed and they seem to have forgotten to put in the cloud like cushioning that was great in the 30's. While the fit of the uppers and grip has improved, it seems this will only stay attached to the shoe for a couple of months max. So disappointing, as was my response from customer service who seemed to think 6 out of 7 pairs of faulty shoes was acceptable and their solution was to "choose a different model". Lift your game ...

I have been running in ASICS for 20 years. I'm one of the unfortunate people with narrow feet and an even more narrow heel. ASICS have been my go to shoe because the shoes tend to be on the more narrow side. I purchased the 31 in my normal size and to my surprise, the shoe was too wide for my feet. I was so disappointed. I've tried the shoes that are specifically for narrow feet, and they have in the past tended to be a little too narrow for me. Even with the marathon loop which helps me secure my ankle, my foot was sliding all over the place - side to side and vertically. I ended up having to return these and go with a different brand. I hop ASICS can get back to their more slim fit in the future.
I really wanted to love these, but unfortunately I’m still getting used to them. I’ve worn Adidas Ultraboost for years now but have found my feet starting to hurt ever so slightly during workouts when they never used to. So I made the switch. I’m also used to a sock style shoe where you don’t have to break them in. I found these ASICS rubbed at the back of my heel the first couple of times I wore them. I also feel like I can feel lots of different parts of the shoe, like the tongue and laces. Maybe I’m just not used to that. To be fair, my feet didn’t hurt during my workout, and I had lots of spring in my jumps, but I was conscious of the rubbing. I will persevere but also just don’t love the look of them either.
I love these. The problem with buying in line is that you don’t have the professional assistance. I thought that first time I’d got the right size and they felt ok when I tried them on. But after a day’s wearing under heavy use, my toenail told me I needed a bigger size. Very happy to do that - my fault for getting it wrong. Caveat emptor. My new ones are absolutely fab. Couldn’t be more pleased. Very supporting of my unnecessary extra weight, comfortable after several hours of action. Plenty of width and no sweatiness. And love the colour! My kids think I’m cool too and are in competion for the smaller ones. Luckily they have smaller feet than me.
