    Good shoe, very good grip, nice fabric but because I first bought size 28 and now I bought size 26, I consider the gel to be harder than the 28 and it bothers me a little and that is my only observation

    The best shoes I have worn. I use them only for running and they are more than ideal for me.

    This review is about the colour: Black

    First impression before wearing them was not so good. Heavy shoes. Overrated, I said. After almost 10 months and many kilometers and a few days in the olive groves, I can say that I didn’t even realize I was wearing shoes. Like new. Very high-quality materials. You don’t get tired at all. You look forward to going for a walk again. I got them for 110 euros, which I would never have spent that much on sports shoes, and I don’t regret it. The only negative is that they smell a little.

    They were purchased on 05-11-2020 at a price of €90, size 43.5. With these, I replaced the Kayano 22 size 43.5. It has a better fit on the foot than the Kayano 22 in size 43.5. I compared the soles and there are some millimeters of difference, the 22s were too big on the foot. Those who have Kayano know that it is a comfortable and high-quality shoe that lasts for years.

    Awesome grip, even better than Nike. However, they are not suitable for standing for work, meaning they are hard. They are only good for running, 5 stars for that. For work, I bought Nike Miler React 2, let's see why my feet started hurting.

    One of the best choices for flat footers like myself. Amazing stability, with great durability for miles. In most running shoes, shock absorption weakens after 600-700 kilometers, but in these specific shoes, it can easily perform satisfactorily up to 900-1000 kilometers.

    Update: January 2021
    The third pair is gone (1200 kilometers), on to the fourth.

    This review is about the colour: Black

    It maintains the slim line of Asics, super lightweight, tremendous cushioning on hard surfaces and stability in the stride, and quite beautiful. It gives you a tendency when you wear it to push forward and run!!
    Perfect for everyday standing and material wear compared to previous generations of Kayano.
    Of course, the problem with Asics remains in use (probably not good fabrics) that rub and deteriorate with pilling on the inside of the heel. Previous models could not withstand "intense" use for more than half a year. This one is at 7 months and so far so good.....only pilling, not wear. Also, I should add that the fabrics, foam, and side plastics, despite daily cleaning, have not changed color at all.

    This review is about the colour: Black

    I’ve been wearing Asics for the last 5 years, Nimbus or Kayano. Every year I had an issue with the shoe tearing at the big toe. That’s why I gave them up for Ultraboost... I managed one month without Asics; they’re simply the most comfortable. I’m wearing these specific ones for the first day and they seem more comfortable than the Kayano 24 I had. I’ll come back in the future with an update about durability or any other observation.

Description & Specifications

One of the most well-known running shoes from Asics, it is ideal for long distances, providing exceptional support and comfort for extended periods of time. It includes the next evolution of the extremely lightweight cushioning protection FlyteFoam Propel and FlyteFoam Lyte. These two technologies work together to give you active cushioning protection and unique comfort throughout the length of the foot. It features a fit that stabilizes the foot while improving performance.

Technologies:

  • Asics-Gel both in the front and back of the shoe, effectively absorbs shocks during all foot transitions
  • Flytefoam Propel, consisting of reinforced organic fibers that are highly durable, providing anti-vibration protection and energy return with every step
  • I.G.S (Impact Guidance System). Asics' design philosophy uses elements to enhance the natural movement of the feet from the moment the heel touches the ground until the toes leave it
  • Flytefoam Lyte, the lightest midsole composition by Asics, providing continuous anti-vibration protection with nanotechnology organic fibers
  • Trusstic System in the middle of the shoe, connecting the front and back points of the foot, offering improved walking
  • Duomax Support System. If your feet tend to roll inward while running, don't worry. The Duomax midsole provides smooth control by combining two materials of different densities
  • AHAR (Asics High Abrasion Rubber). A durable material in critical areas of the outsole with a long lifespan
  • SpevaFoam 45 foam for a soft foot contact surface and enhanced comfort
  • OrthoLite X-40 insoles that ensure foot comfort, as the porous design allows the foot to breathe and removes moisture without losing its shape over time
  • Reflective elements for visibility in low-light conditions
  • Heel-to-toe drop: 10mm
