Perfect Fit, Incredible Comfort, and Worth Every Penny!
I’ve worn many running shoes over the years, but the ASICS Gel-Kayano 31 2E stands out as the best yet. The wider 2E fit is a game-changer—finally, a shoe that gives enough room without feeling sloppy. The cushioning is phenomenal; it absorbs impact effortlessly while still providing excellent stability for longer runs.The design in Steel Grey/Piedmont Grey looks sharp and modern, versatile enough for both running and casual wear. Breathability is excellent, and after several miles, my feet still feel fresh with no hotspots or discomfort.This shoe balances support, comfort, and style—this is it. I’d recommend the Gel-Kayano 31 to any serious runner or anyone who spends long hours on their feet.The arch support is great especially if you use custom orthotics.Absolutely worth the investment!

High quality
Take good care of your feet, Pete! Supportive and comfortable. Lotsa cushion. I measure 12 on the Brannock Device, and went w/ 12.5 after trying on a 12. ASICS recommends .5 size up on running shoes. Nice fit. I have flat feet and Achillles tendinitis, and these are the best shoes I’ve worn

Best running shoes I’ve ever bought
Best running shoe I’ve ever bought. The stupid amount of cushion, not only helps my flat feet, but helps quite a bit with my knees. They have lasted a year, which is pretty nuts when you take into account that it’s a running shoe, so short term use. Great traction and functionality, and fit. The arch support on this is pretty good.After a year of hard use, running an hour every day these things lasted like a champ, did not expect that. R inning shoes aren’t exactly known for durability. Wil buy these again and again.

7 Month Review/Shin Splints Resolved
These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever had. I used to run years ago, but had stopped because life got in the way. I decided I needed to get back to exercising, so I decided to at least start walking again. I live in a very hilly area, and during my first walk down my first hill, I was reminded of the shin splint pain I felt all those years ago when running. I did not even know if I could even make it back home, but I did. I immediately started researching best shoes for walking and dealing with shin splints; I found these as highly recommended, so I got same day delivery; I was surprised by how light and comfortable they were. The next day I set out to try my walk again. I could not believe the difference in these shoes and my regular shoes. I walked five miles up and down hills without any shin pain whatsoever; after some time I even began running again. I have now been walking, running, or bicycling every day for the past 7 months, and I have had no shin or foot pain to speak of. The shoes have held up very well, but if they ever need replacing, I am definitely purchasing these again.

size may be a little off
I ordered the same shoe that I knew fit perfectly, this was about a 1/2 size smaller than what I needed. I kept it thinking that it may break in. Never did. Quality was good, I should have returned right away.

Great shoe with great fit and just the right amount of cushioning
Great fitness shoe, not just for running. Fit is true to size, with a slightly wider toe box than Hoka and Adidas. Definitely more comfortable for me since I have a slightly wider foot. The amount of cushioning is also just right. I tried the New Balance 1080s and Hoka Cliftons and they had too much cushioning which made them less stable for runs and workouts. The Kayano is a stability running shoe so it makes sense. I purchased last year's model (Kayano 31) and saved $40 over this year's model.

Perfect arch support for flat feet
I like the small arch since I have flat feet. It didn’t hurt my feet and provided some arch support.
