Sun & Ski Sports - The Gear. The Advice. The Price.

Year in and year out, Asics finds ways to make this perennial favorite better and lighter. In its 18th year, the Asics Women's GEL-Kayano 18 Running Shoe 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. This is a perfect shoe for that runner looking for a little extra support and stability.

• Weight: 9.7 oz.
• AHAR®: Acronym for ASICS® High Abrasion Rubber. Placed in critical areas of the outsole for exceptional durability.
• APMA Seal of Acceptance: Designated shoes have the use of the American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA) Seal of Acceptance.
• ComforDry™ Sockliner: Provides cushioning performance and anti-odor properties for a cooler, drier, healthier environment.
• DuoMax® Support System: A sport-specific dual-density midsole system positioned to enhance support and stability.
• DuraSponge® Outsole: A blown AHAR® rubber compound for enhanced cushioning and durability in the forefoot.
• P.H.F.® (Personalized Heel Fit): 2 layers of memory foam line the collar and mold to the athlete's heel, creating a personalized fit.
• Rearfoot and Forefoot GEL® Cushioning System: Attenuates shock during impact and toe-off phases, and allows movement in multiple planes as the foot transitions through the gait cycle.
• Solyte® Midsole Material: A lighter weight midsole compound than ASICS' standard EVA and SpEVA®. Also features enhanced cushioning and durability.
• Space Trusstic System®: This midfoot stabilizer creates a pocket between the Trusstic System® device and the midsole, allowing for controlled midsole deformation and more efficient foot function.
