Best Shoes Ever (2010-07-26)
I used to buy shoes based on their looks and their cushion system. At least I thought I knew what cushion system was. I didn't. When I first tried these shoes I thought: "Wow, these ones are really comfortable !" And they really are. I've never tried anything like these GEL ones. They aren't the lighter, but they are still great for running and also daily use. They fit really well and I also think they are better than the 16. I feel like I'm walking barefoot in the carpet.
For that price, you can't go wrong.

Had the GEL-Kayano 13's...these wear just as well. I'm a large guy and these are great for helping relieve my shin splints.

great soft shoes. (2010-07-24)
I never thought shoes can make this much of an impact.

I tried many other brands, but this put them to shame. It took my pain away from my shin area. Expensive but worth the cause..

A faithful Kayano runner (2010-07-11)
I bought the Kayano's recently and this is actually my 5th or 6th pair. The first run waas kinda shaky, just breaking them in, but after that they felt like the cushion monsters that all my other pair have been. They give a great response on concrete and are very durable shoes overall. I noticed this version has a little more carbon rubber on the sole for more durability than previous versions and I'm extremely happy with my purchase. I have to reiterate that this is my 5th or 6th pair of Kayano's so I'm kinda already in the bag on these, lol. I am a dedicated Kayano runner.

Gel Kayano - still the best (2010-07-10)
I've run with many different shoes. Different people with different body types have different needs depending on their stride and weight. Once I switched to the GEL-Kayano I've had no desire to run with any other shoe. It provides a great amount of cushioning along with the stability that I need for my stride.

Highly recommended. There are some shoes that are lighter, but these breathe really well, are an acceptable weight, wear well (I tend to strike on the outside of my heels and roll onto my big toe), and they provide plenty of shock absorbtion for my knees. I realize that the feel of a shoe is subjective and personal but these really do it for me. When it's time for a new pair I don't hesitate - I just go find the best deal I can on the latest model of Kayanos.
