Gel-Kayano 20 Running Shoe - Women's

You eschew tradition except when it comes to your running shoes. The Asics Women's Gel-Kayano 20 Running Shoe is born from two decades of Asics engineering and experience in creating industry-leading running shoes. Updated for a female foot with gender-specific cushioning and an additional 3mm of heel-forefoot drop (as compared to the Men's Kayano 20), this durable road runner will keep you smiling, mile after mile after mile.
FluidFit uppers combine multi-directional stretch mesh with stretch reinforcements to give your foot a custom fit straight out of the box. ComforDry sockliner snugs your foot in softness if you're going commando. Antimicrobial treatment on the lining abates the dramatic shoe-stink you've been known to generate, though won't do anything to disable the power of your shirt. The FluidRide midsole balances minimal weight with maximum cushioning, all the while keeping in mind you're a lady. The gender-specific cushioning reduces the top layer on the midsole, keeping the line of communication between your foot and the ground wide open. Gel up front and in the heel cushions your footstrike for a smooth ride.
Exoskeletons on bugs are creepy and crunchy, but the exoskeleton on the Kayano isn't frightening. The heel-clutching system optimizes fit, reduces slippage, and boosts support for the over-pronators amongst us. Neutral runners need not fear the Dynamic DuoMax or the Guidance Trusstic System: regardless of your gait pattern; these systems enhance support and gait efficiency. The DuraSponge and AHAR outsole softens the blow of your footstrike while standing up the rough and tumble world of asphalt and concrete streets.
