Asics Gel Kayano
The Asics Gel Kayano, which proudly bears the name of its designer, was first worn by sneakerheads in 1993. That's when this legendary model - which would go on to define Asics' future success - entered the market as a running silhouette designed for covering long distances. And the Asics Gel Kayano sneakers fulfilled their intention perfectly. Over the past decades, many subsidiary models have been added, cushioning technology has been improved and the overall look has been tweaked to keep even the most demanding of runners entertained. You can see for yourself in our wide range, where you can find many types of Asics Gel Kayano in countless colorways!
Materials
Upper
Textile: The textile upper of the sneakers is lightweight, breathable and comfortable, ideal for everyday wear and sports. It ensures air circulation, keeps feet fresh and adapts to their shape. Often complemented with synthetic or rubber details for durability and support.
Syntetika: The synthetic upper is made of synthetic materials that are lightweight, durable and easy to clean. It provides good protection against moisture and at the same time allows for a comfortable wearing experience.
Footbed
ORTHOLITE™ X-30: This innovative insole features a unique open-cell foam technology that provides a combination of breathability, moisture wicking and antimicrobial functionality to provide a cooler, drier and healthier environment in your footwear. With a commitment to sustainability, ORTHOLITE™ X-30 contains 30% recycled material.
Midsole
GEL™: A cushioning gel that provides comfort, reduces the impact on the heel and protects against otherwise unnecessary injuries.
FF BLAST™ PLUS: Asics' FF BLAST™ PLUS foam technology represents a significant advance in midsole cushioning. This foam is lighter than standard FF BLAST™ and offers up to 15% better cushioning, meaning it absorbs more energy on impact and returns more energy with every step.
PureGEL™: This new material is 65% softer and offers a 4% higher energy return compared to the previous GEL™ technology. PureGEL™ provides smoother transitions and softer impacts, making it ideal for runners looking for better cushioning and rebound in their shoes.
4D GUIDANCE SYSTEM™: The technology is designed to dynamically stabilise the foot during running and adapt to individual running styles. This innovative structure improves the fluidity of movement and helps prevent injuries by optimizing the distribution of load with each step.
Sole
ASICSGRIP™: This technology features specially designed lugs with a distinctive pattern that improve traction, making it ideal for trail running and other outdoor activities. The unique outsole design provides stability and reduces the risk of slipping, even on wet or muddy surfaces.
AHARPLUS™: AHARPLUS technology stands for ASICS High Abrasion Rubber Plus and is designed to provide exceptional durability and grip. This material is three times more abrasion resistant compared to conventional rubber, thanks to the incorporation of rubber used in car tires. This makes shoes with AHARPLUS™ material ideal for long term use as it retains its functionality and grip over time.

"In a healthy body, a healthy spirit." This is the message hidden in the brand name Asics, which is an acronym of an old Latin proverb. The very original Asics sneakers are adorned with the Onitsuka Tiger branding , which refers to the brand's founder, Kihachiro Onitsuka, as opposed to the now-familiar "a" branding .
Asics sneakers have long been perceived by the public as only a quality running shoe. However, the hidden potential of Japanese design only came to full light at the end of the last decade, when the streetwear spotlight was occupied, for example, by the very hilarious Asics Gel-Kayano 5 shoes . Not only with this model, but also with the silhouette of the Asics Gel-Kinsei, the brand made a strong statement in the fashion world, where it plans to play in the top league in the twenties.
Asics Gel cushioning technology
With the popularization of lifestyle sneaker wear and the rise of streetwear , many Asics silhouettes have shifted to footwear for all manner of leisure activities. Thus, more than one sneaker enthusiast today sees Asics shoes as a fashion accessory. This is mainly due to the fusion of the unique Japanese aesthetic as well as the comfort often provided by the cushioning technology AsicsGel - a gel capsule whose effects are especially noticeable when you're pedaling and rebounding.
The relevance of Asics within streetwear culture was also proven by the Asics x Sean Wotherspooncollaboration on the Asics Gel-Lyte 3 silhouette . You can find this legendary model on Footshop, as well as other popular pieces like the Asics Gel-Nandi, Gel-Lyte and a bunch of others in both men's and women's options.
So, whether you're the kind of athlete who opens each day with a morning half hour down the river, or you just enjoy unconventional colourways and timeless silhouettes, Asicssneakers belong in your shoe closet. So take a good look around.
