Comfort
I purchased this particular shoe due to the positive reviews, and the design. I love the appearance of the shoe. The color combination is fantastic. I was underwhelmed on the comfort of the shoe. At the price point there is better shoes from different manufactures that offer better comfort and stability. I work 12 hour shifts and I realized that it did not provide all day comfort

Very comfortable and cushioned !
Extremely comfortable right out of the box. I find it much more cushioned than regular kayano- though I don’t run much anymore, just walk. Sizing was the same for this one and regular kayano from my perspective.

Most comfortable shoes I’ve owned in a long time, and I own about every brand of running shoes there is.

Gel-Kayano Lite 2
Bought these for wife who is an Asics only fan. She has been wearing Kayano's for over 10 yrs. and absolutely loves them. Perfect fit and she can go to the gym or out to lunch, just so comfortable she'll wear them all day.

Disappointed
Very disappointed. Run small. No cushion like the last model has. I have worn Kayano for years and the last few pairs I’ve had have been terrible. May be changing it up ASICS.

Love the color
My choice of shoes is between the kayano and Brooks glycerin. I expected these shoes to have same cushioning as kayano but they are firm. They run small. I even size up a half size. I have had lots of comments about the color of the shoe. Not sure I would purchase again bc I am looking for something with softer cushioning.
