I did not know they didn't have a tongue and just slipped on. Very hard to get on. Would rather have actual lace. Darn I really liked the color.

I have been wearing Kayanos since model 18, I won't be going to any other shoe of any brand unless they stop making these! When you find the perfect shoe (especially when you have knee pain), you stick with it.

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)

This shoe was recommended for plantar fasciitis recovery. It looks cute, however the front top/tip curves upward about 1/4 inch, leaving more room at the top than I want/need. Feels weird to walk in, and looks strange. My size, 11 1/2 seemed correct. Asics usually run small for my usual 11. Proceed with caution.

I bought these shoes a few months ago and set them aside without trying them on. I have bought the Gel Kayanos for years, always the same size and they would fit perfectly. When I finally went to wear the new shoes I found that the fit had changed significantly and not in a good way. The new Kayano 29 model runs bigger in the toe box and longer than previous models. The side cut by the ankle is higher and rubs my foot...never a problem before. If you have purchased the Gel Kayanos in the past be aware that the 29 model does not fit the same.

I purchased these for my daughter (in college) who has recently started an internship healthcare position and is on her feet quite a bit during her 12 hour shifts. The military wrecked her knees to the point that being on her feet for long periods of time is painful. These have helped tremendously!

I have severe overpronation in one foot which causes knee pain, hip pain, etc. I had tried Hokas, but they gave me blisters and just look too much like orthopedic shoes. These ASICS are THE BEST! No more knee pain when I walk and workout every day. They've really helped me tremendously! My only "complaint" is that the shoe laces are way too long--even double knotted, I was still walking on them. I had to buy shorter ones and replace them.

I keep buying the gel-kayano for my running shoe! They're great! I haven't had skin splints since I started buying these and switching them out with frequency. I keep coming back for more!

The Gel Kayano 29 MK is my favorite shoe- great fit, supportive, snug and a great look. I appreciate that the laces are almost just a detail- the shoes slide right on. I bought two pairs in case this style is no longer available when I wear out the first pair.

Asics gel Kayano is one of the best shoes I've ever worn . If you have high arches, this is the shoe for you. Great arc support. If you want, you could wear all day the first day this is the shoe for you. If you want to shoe that you can work on your feet all day this is definitely the shoe for you

I've only worn these a short time, but they're very comfortable. Also, they're stylish enough to wear with leggings, jeans, etc. Be advised that if you wear orthotics or a special arch support, they may squeak. While it's kind of funny, it could be embarrassing at times.

Very pleasant heel-to-toe support and cushion. I've been wearing Kayano for 16 or 17 years now after having surgery on each ankle, and they continue to keep me safe and moving without injury.

The shoes are well designed and very comfortable. Better than Kayano 28.

Finally found my comfortable work shoe that's well cushioned and supportive. On my feet a solid 8 hrs and these shoes were the first to not need a vreak in period. Arthritis, bunions and metatarsal tendonitis are aggravated by the end of the day. Not with these. The wide toe box, supportive sole and max cushioning we so comfortable i didn't think about my foot pain once during the day. GEL-Kayano fewls like a cross between a road and a trail running shoe.

Asics are by far the sturdiest, most comfortable all day wear sneakers out there. These sneakers are true to size, easy to break in, and incredibly durable. The insole is memory-foam like and contours to the shape of my feet. I was concerned that these might look and feel too bulky, but they are lightweight and sleek. I highly recommend - these are my second pair!

I'm 67 and a distance runner. I love the cushioning it provides my battered feet. I only which I could wear them longer than 300 miles without the balls of my feet suffering.

The shoes fit a classic size 9, but don't buy if you run large. I like the slip on style, but it does take getting used to. Love the color.

I absolutely love this pair of shoes because of the sock opening and it's super comfortable. I believe the MK is supposed to just be the sock opening difference but I got the GEL-KAYANO 29 beige and this is more comfortable. I had to return it because the black to white gradient didn't really work with the clothes that I have. The other color options are not great either. I badly wish they will come out with this again in a more neutral color like all beige/white/super faded pastels, greys

I was a little Leary about changing up the model of shoe I usually order, but I am very happy I did! These are rated the max on cushion and have a high rating on stability, which you can definitely feel! I am a nurse and I work 5 12 hr days a week and I love these shoes!! They feel like they form to my feet and are a dream to walk in.

My husband bought these for me in December i needed a sturdy but comfortable shoe to wear because of my Neuropathy. These felt great after i broke them in wearing around for a few weeks .

I have been wearing Asics running shoes for many years. They are great for running and walking long distances and provide the proper support for me. I like the extra protection on the heel and ball of the foot. I have a narrow heel so no sloppiness in the heel. The shoe fits a M width, not wide like some other makes. They are well made, comfortable and have a nice selection of colors. I purchased the dusk violet/summer dune color.

I love these sneakers! My 3rd pair. They fit well - especially for my narrow heel and wider instep/toe box.
