GEL-KAYANO 27
GEL-KAYANO 27 is a stability shoe for long-distance running and marathon completion. Softer-tuned FLYTEFOAM Propel works with lightweight FLYTEFOAM and heel GEL to balance impact protection and rebound. A resin midfoot truss and DYNAMIC DUOMAX control excessive twisting and movement, while deep forefoot flex grooves in the rubber outsole help the shoe follow the foot and transition smoothly through toe-off.
