The Asics Gel Kayano 24 shoes ensure responsiveness, stability and maximum comfort.
There are three features that differentiate the Kayano 24 shoes from its predecessor:
. a larger toecap
. New composition of the upper
. New metaclutch structure in the heel area
Perfect for long distances, this shoe is suitable for those who have a tendency to overpronation.
Details:
The upper is made of jaquard mesh, a combination of open and closed meshes that minimizes friction between the foot and the upper, provides a perfect fit and optimizes flexibility and breathability.
The heel is equipped with a metaclutch structure: a semirigid plastic insert that perfectly adapts both sides of the ankle to provide greater stability without inhibiting movement.
The midsole is made up of a winning trio in terms of cushioning: Speva, FlyteFoam and made up of Gel, heel and forefoot, ensure shock absorption, great rebound properties, responsiveness and fluidity during racing.
Ahar rubber sole reduces wear and tear.

Drop: 10 mm
I.G.S technology: supports the natural foot movement and gives stability
Guidance Line: A vertical flexible groove along the sole progression line that optimizes the running performance
DuoMax Support Technology: a dual-density intersolar system positioned to optimize support ComforDry X-40 Sockliner: internal lining for superior rebound performance, moisture management and breathability
The longer tip gives greater comfort
Comfort Dry sockliner
The ComforDry Sockliner provides the optimum cushioning performance that creates a cooler, drier and healthier shoe environment.
Forefoot GEL
ASICS GEL is a shock absorption system that uses silicone to satisfy the needs of both amateurs and professional athletes. Forefoot GEL reduces the force of the load during push, increasing performance and drastically reducing the risk of injury.
Guidance Line
Guidance Line places a visible groove in the mid and outsole that follows the foot's center of pressure from heel to toe. The result is a more adaptive running platform, creating a smoother transition from heel strike to toe-off with each stride. The Guidance Line thus helps runners to maintain a natural, efficient gait, especially over long distances.
I.G.S.
The Impact Guidance System (I.G.S.) is an Asics design philosophy. It aims to make shoe components from rear to midfoot and forefoot to work together effectively to allow the body to perform in a natural manner. Asics designers strive to compliment, not correct, how the legs and feet move.
Rearfoot GEL
ASICS GEL is a shock absorption system that uses silicone to satisfy the needs of amateurs and professional athletes alike. Rearfoot GEL offers omni-directional shock absorption, it not only absorbs harmful shock, but helps to stabilize impact forces on the heel.
SpEVA
SpEVA is an exclusive Asics midsole material that optimizes the "compression and rebound" phenomenon, reducing the flattening of the midsole.
Trusstic System
The Trusstic System offers a bit more torsional rigidity for added support.
AHAR+
Highly abrasion-resistant rubber, strategically placed in areas of greatest impact, such as the heel, to increase the durability and protection of the sole.
Dynamic Duomax
Dynamic DuoMax Support System is a dual density midsole with a softer top layer for more sensory feedback and added comfort.
