The new ASICS GEL-Kayano 26 running shoes offer many benefits for runners who want a supportive and luxurious training shoe:

• FLYTEFOAM™ Propel technology in the forefoot and under the heel provides a springier feel.
• More aggressive sculpting of the rearfoot foam and GEL™ technology for better impact protection and smoother transitions.
• The GEL™ technology cushioning unit in the heel allows for a softer lay down at heel strike.

Runners who like the fit of the Kayano 25 with its taller toe box and more accommodating width will love the carry over into version 26.
