Ran 5 pairs of Kayano 22 before switching to the 25 series. I also have pairs of Brooks I rotate in. I have about 200 miles on the shoe. These met my expectations for the Kayano. Much more stability without being truck like. Definitely feel like I have a solid platform under my foot - very stable. A bit heavy but I use them for longer slow runs, not speed work so it’s fine. Only complaint is they seem to get wetter / more sweaty in the humid Carolina summer than the 22 so they smell more and the logos inside the shoes have worn away. With 200 miles the bottoms are wearing well but the plastic guidance bar is really chewed up which I’ve never encountered before. Just an observation. The indigo are a bit more flashy and have more light blue than the picture so it was a bit shocking but I’m fine with it now. My Kayano 22s would get me 300-350 miles before replacement and I think these will go at least that long based on their condition now. Durable, stable shoe, a bit heavy but no issues other than that.

Asics has done a great job bringing back the original fit of the Kayano. I am a fit heavier runner at 215 lbs and run between 6 to 10 miles a week for cardio. I have had a previous bouts with knee issues and PF, so good running shoes are a must for me. So far, the Kayano 25s have been everything Asics said they would be. They run true to size without the toe box being cramped, provide plenty of cushioning from toe to heel with good responsiveness from the new dual layered sole and are very comfortable! You cant go wrong with these!

What a great fit. I have flatter feet and am right on the border of D and EE (for width). Most times D is just a touch too narrow but a EE is too wide even for thicker socks. This is the first time trying the Kayano and I didnt expect them to be any different. I was wrong. A perfect fit. The little bit extra in the toe box is an added bonus. The cushioning caught me by surprise. I knew it felt good, but until I put on my older shoes I didn’t realize just how much. As for the looks.....I didnt want to go dark and am not usually a fan of white color. However, the mix of colors with the white looks very sharp. Now with all this said, I have only walked in them. I have yet to run, but I am now sure they will work well. I may order a second pair just for running indoor while the other can be an all around show. Sure they are not cheap, but many times you need to pay more for what is best for you.

Pro: These have a roomier toe box like the Kayano 22s - I skipped the 23s because of this. Con: Compared to previous versions, for some bizarre reason there is much less cushion throughout the shoe and particularly in the forefoot. Its almost as if I received a defective pair. Ive been using Kayanos for years to run ~25-30 miles per week with a foot issue that requires a cushioned stability shoe to manage. Not this model. Guess theyre just gym shoes now? Not money well spent.
