Check your store has your size before you go. Some have more than others. Wide and extra wide also available in some sizes.

Does anyone know how these compare with the GT-2000? Up until a few months ago I had been using softer running shoes (New Balance Vonga) due to a knee injury but recently I managed a PB in the Hawkes Bay marathon using New Balance 1080s and I could feel the benefit of having less vertical oscillation with the firmer shoes. My impression is that the Asics GT-2000 are very similar to the New Balance 1080s but I'm not clear about the target audience for the Kayanos. 

 

The Kayanos are more heavily discounted than the GT-2000s so are better value, but the priority is to go with what meets my needs.

The Kayanos are ASICS's heavy pronation correction shoe. Much stronger correction than the GT-2000's. They are a great everyday training shoe, if you need the correction. If you don't over pronate then there are much beeter everyday shoes.

Thanks, I think I'll go with the GT-2000 then.
