Normal size arches -
Push Off
There is even distribution from the front of the foot. -
Considered Injuries
Less likely due to effective shock absorption, but neutral runners are not immune to injury. -
How your foot contacts the ground
The foot lands on outside of the heel, then rolls inward (pronates) to absorb shock and support body weight.

Overpronation
-
Foot Type
Low arches or flat feet -
Push Off
Big toe and second toe do majority of the work. -
Considered Injuries
Shin splints, plantar fasciitis, bunions, heel spurs. -
How your foot contacts the ground
The foot lands on outside of heel, then rolls inward (pronates) excessively, transferring weight to inner edge instead of ball of the foot.
The GEL-KAYANO® 28 shoe creates a stable stride that moves you towards a balanced mindset. Featuring a lower-profile external heel counter, this piece cradles your foot with improved rearfoot support. To improve stability and responsiveness, we added FF BLAST™ cushioning to the midsole. It provides a smooth and supportive feel in each step. The trainer's new GEL® technology shape delivers a smooth stride, allowing you to experience a softer landing without losing speed.

New Fan!
Wooow, I have been a fan of Asics but never this style. Consider me a for ever wearer of them. I do Zumba plus walk/run and they are perfect for my arches!

Underwhelming
I am underwhelmed with the 28. It's not as sturdy or comfortable as the 27. It seems to lack the quality I am accustom to in the Asics brand. Looking forward to wearing this out and purchasing the 29.

Excellent Running Shoe
Best Kayano ever! I went back to Kayano after the Nimbus was too hot (inadequate ventilation) and not as good of stability, and this new Kayano has great stability, ventilation, and has amazing cushion. Would buy again for sure!

Like My Latest Gel-Kayano’s’
Likely my 7th or 8th pair. These latest fit a little snugger, but offer better cushioning. Most satisfied with them.

Fits like a glove, super padded
I have been wearing Kayano shoes for a decade, maybe more. I just got the 28 models and wore them to training. They are very comfortable and have a lot of padding on the bottom. They fit my feet like a glove. I think this model maybe the sole is a bit taller. I have been scuffing my feet. Or maybe I wore the heck out of the previous pair! The gel kayano 26,27,28 are my goto to shoes every ear. Good product ASICS.

Great shoes
The black sole is already coming unglued on the bottom. My last pair did too. Thought it was a fluke so I bought them again. Bummed out
