Review on ASICS Gel Kayano Shoes Black Silver Men's Shoes by Frank Ridl

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not for running in my rating.

While these Asics look really good, they're sturdy, heavy, unforgiving, and solid. I walked in it twice and felt no pain. They are in the closet now. I returned to the Asics Nimbus and the pain was gone immediately. These older Kayanos models should only be used for daily activities, strength training and/or walking, NOT running. Your legs, calves and Achilles will thank you.

Pros
  • Cool shoes and great retro aesthetic. I would recommend going half a size up.
Cons
  • The shoes are relatively expensive compared to other running shoes on the market, making them less attractive to budget-conscious buyers.
