New in Footwear: ASICS GEL-Kayano® 18
Asics Gel-Kayano 18: Our best-seller just got better.
November 22, 2011 at 4:09 pm | Uncategorized
The Asics Kayano has proven itself over 18 years as the premier running shoe for runners of all types. The Asics Gel-Kayano 18 has just hit our shelves, and it’s lighter and faster than ever, with improved fit and comfort.
If you’re in the market for a new pair of trainers, we think you owe it to yourself to at least give the “18″ a test drive around the store. For nearly two decades Asics has steadily refined the Gel-Kayano, shaving a bit of weight here, adding a bit of support there. That’s the kind of long-term commitment that long distance runners can understand!
The technical low-down from our friends at Asics America:
Year in and year out, we find ways to make this perennial favorite better and lighter. In its 18th year, the GEL-Kayano® features a new external Heel Clutching System™ and stretch mesh Biomorphic Fit® Upper for improved comfort, while the new Dynamic DuoMax® Support System and lightweight AHAR® outsole ensure a lightweight, stable ride.
