A pretty good shoe and I will consider buying it again
Good shoe for a bigger runner who wants to get in shape and has access to flat surfaces. If you are running on a shoulder and it is slanted you will feel it. I would suggest running on a flat road in a park, or a flat track if available. If you continue to run on a slanted shoulder you will feel it in your ankles because of the gel in the heal. In an ideal running environment I would rate this shoe a 10 out of 10. In an un ideal running environment with slanted shoulders, uneven terrain, or cars coming at you I would rate it a 3 out of ten because of the potential for injury.

Incredibly Comfortable (2009-08-11)

One of the best shoes I have ever owned
I am very impressed with the Kayano 15s. The best thing I can say about them is that they are comfortable. It is hard to not like them because of that. The cushioning is just right. It isn't overly soft, which would defeat the purpose of a stability shoe, but is soft enough for my long runs.

One of the best shoes I have ever owned
I'm giving these shoes a 5 because they are the best running shoes I've ever owned, but then they are the only running shoes I've ever owned. They are very comfortable and I hardly notice I'm wearing them, even on my long run.

One of the best shoes I have ever owned
I've always run in Kayanos and if Asics keeps making them like this, I always will. These are great shoes, like all the past versions, and I have nothing but success with them.
