In 1993, Asics celebrated the launch of the Gel Kayano series, christened with the name of its designer Toshikazu Kayano. In 2020, Asics already launched the 27th version! With the Gel-Kayano 13, Toshikazu Kayano ended his work on the Gel-Kayano series and handed over the responsibility to new designers. Kayano couldn't imagine his shoes off the running track at the time, yet he is flattered that the retros of his running shoe line have now firmly established themselves in the lifestyle segment. The Gel-Kayano 14, the first "non-Toshikazu" Kayano, represents a milestone in the history of the Gel-Kayano line. The new edition retains the midsole equipment and GEL cushioning technology of the original. Slight adjustments have been made to the fit. Asics hits the spirit of today with this release. The layered leather and mesh construction is typical of the popular Millennial runners.

So pleased. I’ve always had an absolute nightmare buying shoes but ASICS never fail me! They fit perfectly. They are comfy from day one. They last for ages.I don’t wear them as running shoes just as everyday shoes that are suitable for insoles. I remove the insoles that comes with the shoes and put my own in. This is easy and quick to do as the regular insole isn’t glued down in the shoe.ASICS are so consistent and good. I’ve never had any issues and they are they only brand I can buy any of their shoes online and have never had to send them back.

The shoes in person looks slightly more grey than tan/brown. Very comfortable, I did have to break them in slightly as on my first long walk, my feet were hurting kinda bad but it’s been better since. They also feel slightly narrow but that might just be my toes.Apart from those tiny negative things, I really do like these shoes and the look of them.

ASICS trainers exceed expectations with their outstanding performance, comfort, and durability. The cushioning system reduces impact on joints during high-impact activities, while the traction provides excellent grip for stability and control. The well-padded collar and breathable upper ensure a snug fit and foot ventilation. These trainers are designed to last, making them a top choice for athletes and fitness enthusiasts alike.

I’ve ordered these sneakers twice and both time I received the wrong size. The first time they refunded the money. This time they can’t even help me. I have to do some kind of report. I don’t understand why I keep getting the wrong size. Both times same size. I checked to see if it’s my error I tripled checked even had someone else look and it’s not me. I can’t believe this.
Asics shoes have been my favorite for many years but this style does not work for me. I have a natural tendency to pronate my foot as I walk. This style seems to accentuate pronation. When I add an orthopedic to the footbed, there is not enough space in the toe area to comfortably move my toes. Also, the back of the shoe seems to hit my achilles tendon when I walk.
I have 2 pairs of Kayano, Kayano 14 and the normal Kayano. However, I feel that the cushion in K14 is not as good as in the regular Kayano. The impact when I run with them feels harder on my knees. What I do like is that my toes are protected more with the material on the front part of the shoe. There is enough room for wearing whool socks, but they till feel a bit stiff. They are ok for short distances but not for a long race.
This is a genuinely lovely pair of trainers, they fit true to size and the retro style is super awesome. Comfort is great, I would not run a marathon in them but for all day general hanging about they are fantastic. They are beautifully made, materials are high quality, exactly what I have come to expect from ASICS. Definitely recommend…
I love the design and the colors! They are very comfortable. The only problem I find, if you have toe as sensitive as mines, is the plastic corner the add. That plastic with the seam rubs against my little finger all the time. It is a pity that by adding that, it has become more annoying and than practical.
I received my order and they fit nice. I wear a 7.5 but got 8. I ordered the white and grey but they sent me the grey, cream and black. And wanted me to send back but not receive the correct color overnight. Told me I had to wait 72 hours to process a new order then wait to receive which would have been an additional-5-7 days on top of the 72 hr processingtime. Even though they sent me the wrong color.
Just like the other comments. Urban Outfitters sent me the completely wrong colorway. You can’t even find that on the site. Reached out to CS and after two weeks of blasting the support. They told me the size is now sold out and i had to print out a label and return it to USPS. What a Joke.
