Asccs Gel-Kayano 29
Great shoe with max cushioning. Very comfortable
Really nice shoes
The overall show is great! Takes a little bit to break them in and the sizes do run small so need to size up
Good not great
I switched to the 29s from the 28s. Broke them in well but I feel like I'm having issues that I just didn't have in the 28s. Ran with the same brand/style of inserts in each. I get more foot pain and I've even ended up with a few blisters from the 29s. If I run a Spring marathon I'll probably try to find something different. I think I just prefer the feel of the 28s midsole as compared to the 29s.
Women's Asics Gel-Kayano 29
These shoes actually helped relieve my plantars fasciitis pain and now I can be on my feet for a long time. I'm also able to go on long walks again.
