I decided to upgrade to the Kayano from the 2130 for my next marathon but what a mistake. I got blisters on each of my heels in the first 4 miles, which I’ve never had before. The forefoot feels great but the heels are horrible. I’m going back to the 2130. Good thing I’m VIP so I can get my money ...

exellent shoe.After KAYANO 12's,the 14's are much better to me. I tried them in hard surfaces, and last week in a 26 km in trail . They were perfect.(1.90cm-85 kgrs) Thank you ASICS for this great shoe.

I have run in Asics since I started running 13 years ago. Never a problem until this shoe. Never had a shin splint or lower back pain until this pair. Anyone else have these problems?

Ran in my first marathon in the Kayano 14. No problems to report. I love these shoes and the 14 is a great update. i have been a Kayano guy since the VII. Great shoe.

208lbs and run about 30 miles a week. These shoes ROCK. Great cushioning. Very firm heal. LOVE it! Use to wear Saucony and Nike. NOW a convert to ASICS!!!!!!

43 yr old. Neutral runner. No injuries. Eight-minute pace three days per week for about 5 miles. 180lbs. I have never had any problems with Asics, but this shoe is killing me after about one month. Shins hurt. Shoe feels like I'm running with boards on my feet, no give at all. Impact is wors...

I love these shoes. I switched over from Asics Gel Nimbus 9, and could not be happier. The stability has corrected my over pronation issue, and the extra cushioning is great. I currently have two pairs in rotation.

I have run in Kayano's for the last four years and this is my favorite so far. I was throughly unimpressed with the fit of the 13's, and 12's were great in my opinion but this shoe is leaps and bounds better than the 13. I love the fit of the heal and stability of the sole. Just bought my second pai...

Finally ran out of 2080s, which were in my opinion the best EVER for ASICS. This shoe does not compare. Bring back the 2080, please.

I like the cushioning and transition a lot, however I do feel a pinching on the inside of my heel. I'm hoping this breaks in because I love everything else about the shoe.

What is it going to take to get asics to finally GET RID OF SOLYTE - IT IS NOT AN EFFECTIVE MIDSOLE MATERIAL! Until Asics goes back to Speva, I'm through with the Kayano model.

Sat, April 05,2008:
After being a dedicated Kayano user, I've finally found a pair I can't wear. The 14's are a great looking shoe, but the heel is WAY too high up, which caused blisters on both my heels (never had blisters before). I don't feel as much cushioning in the forefoot, which caused some plantar pain. Goo...

I liked the Kayano-13 better than the 14. This fits a bit worse than 13. I'm not sure if I want to return these yet or not...

I have over 100 miles on the 14's including a marathon, they feel as if they have less cushioning than the 12's or 13's. I like the fit and oomfort, but the cushioning seems to be inadequate for my liking.

17.    Troy rated this product 3 stars
Wed, March 26,2008:
The heel fits higher than the previous model, which for me has caused slight rubbing in the back of the ankle. The toe box also seems wider than usual. The cushioning and stiffness feel adequate. I'm sitting on the fence with these.

Sun, March 23,2008:
Good Kayano, but not my favorite (liked the 12 best). The heel rides too high and during my first 3 weeks of running in these, had to tape my ankle. I'm 6'1" 225lbs with wide feet, and I find they have plenty of cushion, support, and they're not "bricks." My biggest complaint is the high heel.

Fri, March 21,2008:
I've put almost 100 miles on a pair, and they still feel like bricks on my feet. No comparison to the 13.

Wed, March 19,2008:
After reading many of the other reviews, I was reluctant to try the "14." But I really liked the "12" and the "13," so I took a gamble and got the "14." I really like them! I have run about 100 miles in them already. They have that great snug fit in the heel (like the "12"), and I especially lik...

Wed, March 19,2008:
Not a 13. The heel rides high, toe box is wider, which may be good for some. It does not have the snug fit like the 13's do. I managed a couple of shorter runs in them and a 17 miler. Went and bought my 3rd pair of 13's.

22.    Derrick rated this product 2 stars
Sun, March 09,2008:
The forefoot feels great, and the ride is good, but the heel has a very funny fit. It feel like the uppers are sitting too far below my ankle.

first 2 pair i have returned under rr great guarante. the more i wore them the less compliant they were. unlike the 13 these are stiff and heavy
