I love this black with flowers, something different. This is my first pair of Kayano's. I wore other styles of Asics for years. Im not a runner, but do lots of walking. These feel great. Will probably order another pair in this same pattern.

As for size of this shoe, I always buy a full size larger in running shoes than regular shoes and they fit perfectly. I have a narrow fit so the shoe felt very comfortable to me.

My favorite shoe, I upgraded from the 2000 for more support on my longer distances (10+ mile runs). Feet feel great

Really cute shoes! Ordered 1/2 size up from usual size as recommended by Asics. Fit is great and shoe is very stylish. Just received them so have not road tested yet, but think they will be a good walking shoe.

I've been wearing Gel-Kayanos for several years and love them as much today as the first time I tried a pair on. I'm an active person and I suffer from bouts of plantar fasciitis as well as arthritis. This has been, and still is, the most comfortable shoe for me.

Great fit. These shoes are very comfy from the first time I put them on . Usually jog 3 to 4 miles a day & did so the first time I wore them. Love the color too. Like the softer colors.

When I wear these, I can't feel any pain from my plantar fasciitis! They run a size small, but if you order up, they are perfect!

I bought these shoes a little less than a month ago and I absolutely love them. They are so comfortable and are exactly the quality I expect from the asics brand. They are the BEST running shoes on the market. I'm very happy with them and would suggest them to anyone.

I now have 3 pairs of Gel Kayano 23's. I love the style and comfort. They're great for everyday wear or for workouts. Very supportive but provide a soft footbed. As far as I'm concerned you can't go wrong with these. True to size as well.

I got my first pair of Kayanos last year, and they are the best for my feet. These also fit great! I had read some reviews that said they run smaller in the toe, but they fit me well -- the same as previous Asics shoes have. Can't recommend highly enough!

Love the Kayan sneakers. Wear them all the time. Would like to see the tie box a little wider. My toes are more uncomfortable in the 23's then prior years.

Rarely, have I written a review of a Zappos order but these ASICIS Gel-Kayano 23 deserve it. I've worn Brooks for the last 4 to 5 years. My last was the Adrenaline GTS. Liked them well enough but was on the lookout for something better. The pattern on these ASICS caught my attention. Didn't expect much. But WOW! These are amazing. Light weight, fit my narrow heels, with plenty of toe box room. These made my 66 year old feet and knees feel great and for first time in a long time, I got on the treadmill. These may run narrow for some, but am I glad I tried these.

I have a pair of Surveyor 5's, size 8, but had to go with an 8.5 in the Kayano 23's because the toebox was too narrow. Can't believe how comfortable they are. If you can't try them on, go a half size up and you'll be fine.

I have been running in a neutral shoe by Nike. They have never felt very comfortable so I decided to try a shoe designed for overpronation. I decided to try the ASICS Gel-Kayano® 23 and I have never been more excited to get back to running. I normally wear a 9 but did have to go into a 9.5. The shoe feels like it is hugging my feet and there is a nice bounce to them. The Kayano has a tremendous amount of support, which is what I have been missing.

Asics is the only brand I will ever buy as I switched from Nike air max. They are hands down the most comfortable pair of shoes I have owned as I am a nurse and am on my feet most of the day. I got the extra wide and they are definitely true to their size. I had an issue with a defect in my previous pair and Asics stood by their product and replaced my shoes. I had the new pair in less than a week. They truly stand by their products!!

These are going back, but I am reordering in a men's size 8.5. I normally wear a 10B but these are very narrow in the toe box and my toes were touching the top of the shoes. They felt pretty good, but am not going to risk keeping them. Comfy at home does not make them comfy running. Zappos is awesome!

ASICS are my favorite shoes for running. The support and comfort is unmatched with other running shoes. I have several foot problems but with these shoes I can run without foot pain. Highly recommend them to any runner.
