Multi layer midsole systems separate impact absorption from energy return functions.
Advice for Road Runners: The ASICS Men's Gel-Kayano 32 Running Shoes offer the highest level of cushioning and support within ASICS' road running shoe line-up.
Underfoot Feel
The ASICS Gel-Kayano 32 Running Shoes should feel very supportive underfoot. This is because the midsole has the following features:
- A wide platform;
- full-length lateral midsole groove;
- raised midsole sidewalls; and
- a soft and bouncy medial section.
This system - named 4D Guidance System - works with your body to provide support where and when it's needed most. Each element works together to reduce the amount of time your feet spend in a pronated position.
The midsole also offers exceptional cushioning. A thick layer of FF Blast ECO foam and an ultra-absorbent PureGEL heel insert should feel very comfortable. Particularly for heel strikers.
Wearers of the previous edition may be interested to know the midsole has a lighter formula and 2 mm more forefoot cushioning.
Upper Fit
The premium engineered mesh in the upper of the ASICS Gel-Kayano 32 Running Shoes is designed to feel breathable and supportive.
Ideal Run Type
We recommend choosing the ASICS Men's Gel-Kayano 32 Running Shoes when you're looking for maximum-protection, comfort, and support.
It's likely the plush cushioning will feel best at slower speeds.

Sizing Advice
Shoe size is a personal preference and everyone's feet are different, but we want to ensure you avoid any pain or discomfort from bruised toenails, rubbing, blistering or pins and needles.
Your running shoes should have enough width to allow you to spread your toes and should have some space at the front (we recommend having a half to one thumb's width of space from the end of your longest toe to the front of your running shoes).
