I walk every AM at 5AM for 2 miles before work and somtimes after work also. I do this 5-6 days every week, even in inclement weather. The shoes "ajust" to all types of weather. Never had a blister. Never had to go through a "breakthrough " period. The shoes were good right from the first time I put them on.

Nice, with the right insoles

I walk 30 minutes a day every morning on a paved trail. These shoes performed mostly well. Good heel, and good toe support; nice and lightweight, but the middle not so supportive at all. I put a pair of berry superfeet insoles in them, and they feel perfect now. I could walk in them all day long.

Normally, when I'm not working out, I immediately put on my sandals in the summertime it's so hot. These shoes I have worn all day on occasion and was not uncomfortable.

As far as the size, I normally wear a 8W but needed to go to 8 1/2 W and it still felt a little snug but I just make sure to wear thin socks and it's fine.

In summary, an overall very good shoe; just be prepared to find some more supportive insoles.

I walk four miles a day and just came back from my first walk with these shoes. They are lightweight and extremely comfortable. My weight felt more evenly distributed, which resulted in absolutely no foot, ankle, or leg discomfort. Based on other recommendations, I ordered 1/2 size larger than my normal size. I suggest doing that.

I always bought Asics in the past, but got away from them when the stores in my area only carried running shoes. I am very glad I found them here. I will only purchase Asics in the future. They are the best to fit.
I use the elliptical, treadmill & bike at my local gym 3 times a week, other days I walk & bike outside. I have orthotics for both feet and the Asics accommodated them beautifully.

I wear these shoes for walking on the treadmill, and for general use throughout the day. They are very comfortable. I got neuropathy in my feet from chemotherapy, these shoes help. Plenty of room in forefoot.

The Gel-Kayano 7 is the most comfortable walking shoe I've ever purchased. It is lightweight, stylish, has good support and traction.
It is true to size and width. The only con is that the material is hard to keep clean.

These are the second pair of Gel Kayanos for me. Since I moved to Hawaii and go without shoes a lot, I think my feet spread out, so I ordered 1/2 size larger than the last pair. They fit my feet very well. Immediately comfortable, though a little hot in this climate.

I am a pet sitter and walk dogs all day long. I have had knee and back pain in the past but all my pain is gone with these shoes. I also like that my feet don't feel hot through out the day. Great shoe! Very comfortable!

I've had these for a couple weeks now and use them at least three times a week on my treadmill workouts and a couple of times a week on an outdoor trail. They are awesome! After wearing high heels all day at work, when I put these on my feet are instantly comfortable and they fit perfectly from the time I took them out of the box. The toe has plenty of flex, the heel is incredibly comfortable and they breathe very well--after an hour long treadmill workout me feet are great! I wish they were a little "prettier" looking, but overall I love these shoes and would highly recommend for walkers.
