  1. Wendy Boynton

    ASICS are my go to shoe. I love the Kayanos. They are extremely comfortable. My only complaint is the enormous sole. They seem to be going after the Hoka crowd.

  2. Daniel Velasco Ramos

    Muy buenos tenis para correr, con excelente soporte y amortiguación sin ser tan pesados.

  3. PAUL MIGUEL SANCHEZ CORTES

    Un producto justo como lo esperaba

    It’s so hard finding good shoes in wide widths since many stores don’t carry a lot of wide shoes. After a long online hunt and trying 3-4 different pairs and brands, these are the winner. I loved the Hoka’s I had, but the heel drop wasn’t large enough for me, so I found these and they’re great. Nice heel drop and very cushioned- it feels like walking on a pocket of air.

    it’s comfortable, light

  6. Matthew Wade Thomas

    Decided not to hate running this year and actually give it a fair try so I bought these as I’m 6’ 200 lb. they cushion my strides well, I don’t feel my knees or ankles and actually enjoy the runs, it’s improved my core muscles and improves endurance for my beach vball game.

    Beautiful looking shoe. Completely redesigned from top to bottom. Super soft foam with plenty of stack. This is a 5 star rated shoe that gets a 4 star for my personal use only because I have out grown / out run the need for a stability shoe. I have always been on the borderline of neutral vs stability (Nimbus vs Kayano). Difference now is I run almost exclusively outdoors (treadmill at gym for inclement weather and speedwork only) which was strengthened by feet. In the past it was the opposite. I was exclusively a treadmill runner so the few times I ran outside warranted a stability shoe. I would feel the soreness in my arches sometimes. But when running in these, I didn’t get that nice pillowed feel of the Nimbus (I know its a different shoe with different design goals). Instead my knees were sore because the shoe did not allow me to roll through my natural gait. Never had those feeling with neutral shoes and its a first with the Kayano. The support is there in spades and its supper soft. Much better than the Bondi 8 which I feel is too stiff. If you need the support for your arches BUY IT! If not then the Nimbus is a better buy.

    I tried out a bunch of shoes for running moderate distances of 3-5 miles. I ended up settling on the Kayano 30. The Saucony Guide 16 and Mizuno Wave Inspire 19 were both in a very close second. I tried all of the shoes in a 11.5 wide.

    Gel Kayano 30: Best overall for a person with a wide and flat foot, who wants support and maximum cushion for long runs. This is the perfect shoe in that respect.
    -350 grams
    -Softness: 5/5
    -Support/Guide: 4/5
    -Smoothness of heel to toe ride: 5/5
    -Width: Wide

    Brooks Glycerin GTS 20: Best overall for a person with wide and flat foot, who wants a firm and nimble feeling ride and support. This is the perfect shoe in that respect.
    -350 grams
    -Softness: 1/5
    -Support/Guide: 3/5
    -Smoothness of heel to toe ride: 5/5
    -Width: Wide

    Saucony Guide 16: Best overall for a person with a wider foot, who wants a medium level of cushioning and support. This is the perfect shoe in that respect.
    -350 grams
    -Softness: 3/5
    -Support/Guide: 5/5
    -Smoothness of heel to toe ride: 4/5
    -Width: Wide

    Mizuno Wave Inspire 19: Very good for a person with a wide and flat foot, who wants high cushioning for long runs. Very similar fit to the Saucony Guide 16, but with less support, slightly more cushioning, and a slightly less smooth heel to toe ride. Only real downside is that the cushioning is so soft that it “bottoms out” as if the foam isn’t thick enough and you hit the harder base of the shoe under the cushioning.
    -343 grams
    -Softness: 4/5
    -Support/Guide: 2/5
    -Smoothness of heel to toe ride: 3/5
    -Width: Wide

    New Balance Vongo V5: Best overall for a person with a more normal/narrow width foot who wants a little stability and soft cushioning. This is a slightly more narrow and slightly more soft version of the Saucony Guide 16. Similar to the Mizuno Wave except that it’s more narrow and has a little more support.
    -320 grams
    -Softness: 4/5
    -Support/Guide: 3/5
    -Smoothness of heel to toe ride: 5/5
    -Width: Normal/Narrow

    Brooks Adrenaline GTS 23: Best overall for a person with a more narrow/normal width foot who wants support and a firm and nimble feeling ride for shorter and faster runs. Not a light shoe though. Feels like a more narrow and slightly more firm version of the Glycerin GTS 20.
    -Softness: 1/5
    -Support/Guide: 3/5
    -Smoothness of heel to toe ride: 5/5
    -Width: Normal/Narrow

    Saucony Tempus: Very light shoe. Fairly firm and feels a little stiff and clunky in the ride from heel to toe. No real advantage unless you just want a really light shoe. Questionable durability.
    310 grams
    -Softness: 2/5
    -Support/Guide: 3/5
    -Smoothness of heel to toe ride: 2/5
    -Width: Normal

    Saucony Omni 20: Similar to the Brooks Glycerin in that it’s good for a person with a wide flat foot, who wants a more firm shoe with support. But the ride isn’t as smooth and the shoe isn’t nimble feeling and there’s slightly less support. It is slightly softer than the Glycerin though. Very heavy for how firm it is. Would be a better walking shoe.
    -350 grams
    -Softness: 1.5/5
    -Support/Guide: 2/5
    -Smoothness of heel to toe ride: 5/5

  12. Sam Morales

    Best running shoes I’ve try in my life for a flat surface. Comfortable, stable, great shape and design.
    Not reccomendable for cross country.

  13. 3

    Hace tiempo que no corría, mis rodillas me molestan y dejé de hacerlo. Después de un accidente perdí sensibilidad en mi pierna izquierda y consideré correr para recuperarme.
    Estos tenis son ideales para mi; pronador, de mas de 80 kg, con lecciones y acostumbrado a usar botas.
