Designed For Neutral Overpronation

Neutral
-
Foot Type
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® 29 shoe creates a stable running experience and a more responsive feel underfoot.
Featuring a low-profile external heel counter, this piece comfortably cradles your foot with advanced rearfoot support.
We also updated the midsole with FF BLAST™ PLUS cushioning. This helps keep the shoe lightweight while creating a more energized rebound in each step.
A LITETRUSS™ stability feature is placed on the midsole’s inside angle. It’s designed to help keep your foot from rolling too far inward during your stride.

Best of the best
I keep buying these because they are the best running shoes I have ever worn. I can only hope that ASICS continues to make them. I convinced my daughter to try them out to, and she has now bought multiple pair just in case they are no longer available.

Great support and very comfortable!
These shoes are very comfortable. As a teacher they give my feet the support they need so my feet don’t ache after being on my feet all day.

Best Shoes For Me, As Usual
I have bought only Asics since the last two pairs of the better known "N" shoes blew out a few weeks after purchase... maybe 35 years, now, at least 15, exclusively, Gel-Kayano. They have never disappointed me and this iteration of the Kayanos is no exception. Cloud-like to walk on (I'm no runner), they always fit perfectly and keep my lower leg aligned, no knee issues at 68. I will continue my loyalty to Asics as long as they maintain this level of quality.

Best running/everyday shoe ever
Hands down the best shoe I’ve ever worn. Perfect amount of cushion under the foot for hard pavement. Enough stability in the sole to provide support. Soft breathable mesh around the forefoot which feels amazing. This shoe runs wide but that’s a very good thing in a world of shoes which run narrow. I usually wear a wide in other brands and this pair went to the standard width which was still plenty. Sizing was true to size on the length. I might buy another pair just to keep for later they were that comfortable. ASICS literally built the perfect shoe.

Amazing shoes
Over the last year I’ve been dealing with plantar fasciitis. At 53 I’ve never dealt with it. I’ve tried all kinds of different brands. But ASICS is by far the best for me. And the Gel-Kayano is an amazingly soft and responsive shoe. Light weight and with the perfect width. I can work out and get in my daily walks. I have 4 other pairs of ASICS which I love. But this shoe is amazing!

Excellent shoe for an overpronator (again)
Excellent shoes. They fit well, have very good cushioning and outstanding support. They work well with my custom orthotics. The 29s are a noticeable improvement over the 28s (which were excellent in their own right.)
