Known as the benchmark for performance running shoes, the 13th version of the Asics Gel-Kayano does not disappoint.  Featuring thicker gel cushioning units in the heel and interior biomorphic material molds to the forefoot, all this added technology translates into a light and springy shoe that’s well behaved during slow jogs or all-out sprints.  Like previous versions to bear its name, standard support and cushioning for neutral runners and overpronators reduces unnecessary wear and fatigue with every run.  Plus, at 12.6 oz; the Asics Gel-Kayano 13 remains a lightweight package that feels great during those long jogs.

Asic Gel-Kayano 13 - Gets Better All The Time

I’ve owned various pairs of Gel-Kayano’s in the past.  And the shoe itself did not disappoint.  Unfortunately, due to my various jogging paths, especially on different types of terrain, I wore them out pretty fast (too fast for my liking).  Nevertheless, every pair felt super comfortable and worth every penny. 

Despite its high price point, the Asics Gel-Kayano 13 is a great choice for serious joggers or experienced athletes looking for a lightweight shoe that really performs.  And don’t let the number 13 scare you.  Just by wearing these shoes, you’ll feel really lucky at the end of a run and your feet will thank you for wearing them.
