The GEL-KAYANO™ 29 shoe creates a stable running experience and a more responsive feel underfoot.
Featuring a low-profile external heel counter, this piece comfortably cradles your foot with advanced rearfoot support.
We also updated the midsole with FF BLAST™ PLUS cushioning. This helps keep the shoe lightweight while creating a more energized rebound in each step.
A LITETRUSS™ stability feature is placed on the midsole’s inside aspect. It’s designed to help keep your foot from rolling too far inward during your stride.
Ahar Heel Plug
ASICS High Abrasion Resistant rubber is used in heavy wear areas such as the heel to extend the life of the shoe.
Engineered Mesh
A technical mesh material that stretches in multiple directions, creating a glove, snug like fit that provides a unique balance of comfort and fit.
External Heel Clutch
Improves fit between the shoe and the heel by restricting displacement. This “clutching” action enhances stability and performance.
Gel - Rearfoot
Reduces impact during heel strike and allows for a smooth transititon. Shape of units designed for special function under the heel of the foot.
Ortholite Sockliner
This premium sockliner features higher rebound properties while providing excellent moisture management and a high-level of breathability
Reflectivity
Special reflective material which enhances visibility in poor light.
3D Space Construction
This technology is implemented through a series of strategically planted pillars within the midsole, allowing runners to experience more compression in a specific area without reducing durability or stability. These pillar formations are tuned differently in the men's and women's models to address each gender's biomechanical data
