  2A Narrow
Narrow B Standard
Standard D Wide
Wide 2E Extra Wide
Extra Wide 4E  

The standard (medium) width for women is B, while the standard width for men is D. Shoe boxes and labels will only identify widths other than standard. Within the shoes, wide and narrow widths are identified on the label, underneath the tongue — ie. T005N(2E).

When is additional width needed?

Visible stretching or bulging on the outsides of forefoot materials is a good indicator that additional width may be needed. These sizes are available in many of our Running and Training shoes. In some cases, men can wear women’s styles to achieve a narrow fit and women can wear men’s to get a wide. If this is needed, please use the references above to determine comparable size lengths.

Please note that the differences of width between narrow, standard, wide, and extra wide are usually only a couple millimeters and are proportional to the size of the shoe. Most additional width will be found in the forefoot.

Product Details

Move your mind with the GEL-KAYANO™ 31 shoe.

The GEL-KAYANO™ 31 focuses on delivering holistic, adaptive stability with premium comfort underfoot. It is ideal for runners looking for a combination of moderate support and high-cushioning during their run.

4D GUIDANCE SYSTEM™ is found in the midsole. This new technology helps to steady your stride on your run.

PureGEL™ technology improves softness and shock absorption to reduce the impact on your joints and keep you running comfortably.

FF BLAST™ (FLYTE FOAM BLAST) PLUS ECO foam delivers softer landing and energised cushioning to keep you feeling comfortable on harder surfaces.

The new technical engineered upper material provides comfort and a stable fit.

What is the 4D GUIDANCE SYSTEM™ ?

Developed at the ASICS Institute of Sport Science (ISS) in Japan, there are four key elements that work together to support your run.

- Midsole geometry and design features including a lateral decoupling groove

- Medial convex geometry

- A newly designed lateral guidance line

- The midfoot foam of FF BLAST™ (FLYTE FOAM BLAST) PLUS ECO that provides comfort for the fatiguing foot.



Width: D standard - STANDARD

For men the standard shoe width is D, going up to a wide fitting 2E and the widest a 4E. In New Zealand the most common shoe width size* for men is a 2E.Find out more about widths.

pronation

Pronation is part of the natural movement of the human body and refers to the way your foot rolls inward for impact distribution upon landing. Understanding your pronation type can help you find a comfortable running shoe. The GEL-KAYANO 31 is made for Overpronation.

HOW YOUR FOOT CONTACTS THE GROUND

The foot lands on outside of heel, then rolls inward (pronates) excessively, transferring weight to inner edge instead of ball of the foot.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Squirrel running from Feels like clouds I’ve been running most of my life on trails but moved to a spot in the world where trails don’t really exist! Plenty of road running here, so I knew I needed a comfy pair of shoes to try and enjoy the road with!! The Gel-Kayano 31’s are incredible. Feels like you’re running on clouds. These are my second pair of Gel-Kayano’s. I definitely recommend these shoes to anyone who wants to enjoy there feet after running on pavement!

Rated 1 out of 5 by Scott1 from Questionable quality Bought these shoes as a replacement for my New Balance Shoes. I have been running with new balance shoes for the past 30 years. My search for an equivalent shoe led me to aisics. I purchased the gel kayano 31 and after one month the soles are already falling apart. I run 5 days a week and alternate between two pairs of gel kayano 31 running shoes. The pair with the soles coming apart were purchased about two weeks or so ahead of the second pair. I wanted to make sure that they were a good fit me and my running style. Needless to say the soles should not be coming apart after only pavement running outside under normal conditions. Very disappointed with the warranty process and the response received.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Mikeyh from Brilliant Shoes I have been running in ASICS Kayano shoes for over 25 years. I find them for me personally the best fitting and most comfortable shoes. I have occasionally tried other brands but always come back to ASICS. I would recommend these shoes to any serious runner concerned about comfort and performance.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Murrumbeena Runner from Couldn't be happier I recently purchased the Men's Gel Kayano 31 in grey and orange, and I couldn't be happier with my choice! These shoes offer an incredible blend of comfort, support, and style. The cushioning is top-notch, making long runs and daily wear a breeze. The sleek design is both versatile and stylish, easily pairing with any workout or casual outfit. What truly stands out is the stability and support these shoes provide. As someone who needs extra arch support, the Gel Kayano 31 has been a game-changer. My feet feel well-supported, and I've noticed a significant reduction in fatigue and discomfort. Overall, I highly recommend the Gel Kayano 31 to anyone looking for a reliable, stylish, and comfortable running shoe. They have exceeded my expectations in every way!
