Review on ๐Ÿƒ ASICS Men's Gel-Kayano 25 Running Shoes: Supreme Comfort and Exceptional Performance by Justin Hollins

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fits well and is a treat for my feet.

Asics Gel-Kayano looks great and is the only brand/product that I can say with confidence that fits my feet perfectly every time and allows me to, without pain to walk in my legs From a technical point of view, the Asics Gel-Kayano is a great running shoe that adapts well to the foot, provides great support when running and the "Gel" technology is easy on the knees! Most other shoes from other brands give me trouble walking in one way or another. The only downside to the Asics Gel-Kayano in general (although not yet on this pair) is that it's an annoying and unnecessary problem for me, but over the past five or six years and on my 15 or so pair of Asics it's been constant that not every pair of Asics Gel-Kayano looks good for a long time. After a relatively short period of time (often only a month of use), a hole begins to form in the upper part of the shoe covering the toe (hole in the mesh toe cap). I wish Asics would recognize and fix this defect, because the toe hole looks bad in almost new shoes (and people who don't have Asics often ask what happened), but it's the same problem every time, and it is happened. with all my previous pairs over the years but this has never happened with any other brand I have used. I brought this issue (defect) directly to Asics but quoted the warranty and I sent a pair which I got replaced and again they only lasted a month before a new hole appeared in one of the shoes again. I've had my shoes changed twice, but who has the time to keep sending in shoes for warranty replacements only to get a new pair with the same problem? But even with holes, the shoes can be used (and the only one I'm comfortable with), but this problem is annoying, and the shoes start to deteriorate almost immediately (see photo of my previous pair - not the newest). In short, the Asics Gel-Kayano are great running shoes that fit your feet well, provide excellent stability and support for your feet, and are easy on your knees, but don't expect them to look good or last a long time.

Pros
  • It's amazing
Cons
  • Some little things
