ASICS has launched the GEL-KAYANO™ 31 shoe, a popular stability running shoe series. The shoe offers optimized comfort with a refurbished upper, ensuring a comfortable fit for all runners. The shoe follows ASICS’ new approach for adaptive stability and premium comfort, following the GEL-KAYANO™ 30 shoe. The asymmetrical medial design upper has been refurbished for a supportive fit, and a more comfortable feel. The mesh upper provides better ventilation and improved flexibility, ensuring feet stay cool over longer distances. The shoe is designed to help runners of all abilities progress as they move their minds.
By updating the shoe’s outsole with a HYBRID ASICSGRIP™ rubber material, the GEL-KAYANO™ 31 shoe also helps provide better traction throughout your run to strengthen the shoe’s stability. Combined with PureGEL™ technology, this delivers improved shock absorption and smoother transitions, adding further protection.
As with its landmark predecessor, the shoe benefits from unique 4D GUIDANCE SYSTEM™ honed through user testing and research. It works with the body’s movement to provide adaptive stability and comfort, cuddling up to all runners when needed.
Junichiro Tateishi, General Manager of the Product Function Research Department at ASICS, said: “We believe the GEL-KAYANO™ 31 shoe not only provides the stability the shoe is famous for but also delivers an awe-inspiring level of comfort to help runners go further. We are also proud that the GEL-KAYANO™ 31 shoe continues to display its CO2e emissions, printed on its insole as 10.6kg per pair, which shows ASICS’ ongoing commitment to transparency regarding the CO2e emissions so that runners can feel confident about their choices of GEL-KAYANO™ 31 shoe.
The GEL-KAYANO™ is a legendary running shoe for a reason, and we’re excited to see how fans of the series enjoy this added comfort when they try the shoe. We hope it helps everyone feel comfortable, confident and uplifted.”
The GEL-KAYANO™ 31 shoe will be available for men and women at ASICS retail and online stores from mid-July onwards, amounting to P11,090.00.
