Gel-Kayano 30 stands out because it does not show any visible gel like previous models, but rest assured; it's built into the shoe and offers the same (if not better) shock absorption that most people love. This running shoe is a great hybrid neutral stability shoe with a little extra support thanks to the external heel counter and Asics' 4D Guidance System foam that stays under the internal arch. Otherwise, it's a super lightweight and well-cushioned shoe for walking and running that any foot can easily get used to.

The harshest critics of running shoes are those who have used previous models, but most agree that the Gel-Kayano 30 is an upgrade. “I've been running in Asics Gel-Kayanos for over 20 years,” said one customer. “Each new pair is the same size, comfortable and perfect for running right out of the box. These have lived up to my expectations and I still consider them the best running shoes on the market.” Another customer agreed, saying, “Gel-Kayano 30 is the best Gel-Kayano of the last 5 years.”
