Refined ASICS Women's Gel-Kayano 29

The engineered knit upper of this product improves breathability. At least 50% of the shoe's main upper material is made with recycled content to reduce waste and carbon emissions. The sockliner is produced with the solution dyeing process that reduces water usage by approximately 33% and carbon emissions by approximately 45% compared to the conventional dyeing technology. The shoe has a wide fit, and a redesigned external heel counter helps keep the foot stable and provide a more comfortable stride.

The OrthoLite X-55 Sockliner improves comfort. The LITETRUSS Technology in the material helps increase stability and guides the foot through the gait for a more efficient toe-off. The AHARPLUS Heel Plug improves the outsole durability.

The shoe is designed for road use, with a 10 mm heel drop and a weight of 270 g/9.5 oz. It provides support for neutral and stability foot types, and maximum cushioning.

Underpronation, also known as supination, is a condition where the outside of the heel hits the ground at an increased angle with minimal pronation, causing shock to the lower leg. This can lead to issues like plantar fasciitis, shin splints, and ankle strain. People with high arches often experience this.

Neutral foot type is when the foot lands on the outside of the heel and then rolls inward, effectively absorbing impact on the body. The push-off experience is an even distribution from the front of the foot. Getting injured is less likely due to effective shock absorption, but not impossible. People with normal-size arches typically have this foot type.

Overpronation is when the foot lands on the outside of the heel and then rolls inward, transferring excess weight. This can result in issues like shin splints, plantar fasciitis, bunions, and heel spurs. Individuals with low arches or flat feet often have this foot type.
