If you are looking for a running shoe with stability and support, you will love the latest edition of the shoes with the ASICS Gel Kayano 29.
The running shoe supports the foot, attenuates shocks, and provides increased stability and support. More resistant than ever, these shoes will not disappoint. They are an excellent choice for runners looking for a pair that combines comfort and support.
The Kayano 29 is actually 10 grams lighter than its predecessor, the GEL-Kayano 28, and boasts FF BLAST PLUS tech which cushions the upper midsole, allowing for a more energized feel.
Upper
An engineered knit upper with a strategically tighter weave on the medial side and a supportive internal heel counter create a structured fit. The refreshed upper design works harmoniously with the increased stack height, keeping you stable on the platform to conquer long mileage and daily training.
Midsole
There is a new tech called Litetruss in the midsole to keep the foot from rolling inward each stride. The intention is to protect the foot over long distances. A heel counter helps your foot stay rooted to the midsole in the shoe so you aren’t distracted by your foot slipping around in the shoe. The rear area of the shoe also has Gel cushioning, again reducing shock during the impact phase of your stride.
Cushioning
Rearfoot and forefoot GEL technology cushioning and FF Blast Plus foam cushioning provide impact absorption and a responsive rebound, while the 3D Space Construction offers a softer feel underfoot. The Gel Kayano 29 is topped off with an Ortholite X sock liner.
Outsole
It’s AHAR rubber at the back which is a harder compound rubber that is going to wear a little better at the entry point for heel strikers. The rubber outsole is made of a tough compound designed to both last a long time as well as prevent slips and help you stay in control.
