Popular Running Shoe Comparisons
The ASICS GEL-KAYANO 32 and the ASICS GT-2000 13 are both stability shoes, but they differ significantly in how they deliver support and cushioning. The GT-2000 13 is the lighter and lower-stacked of the two, making it feel more nimble but also firmer and less protective, especially on longer runs. Its 3D Guidance system provides mild to moderate stability through a flatter platform and structured midsole without the bulk of a full guidance wall. The KAYANO, on the other hand, uses a 4D Guidance system with more built-up sidewalls and torsional rigidity, offering more pronounced support and control, especially for heavier runners or those who overpronate significantly. It also rides softer and absorbs more shock thanks to its thicker midsole and higher stack, but feels heavier and less agile as a result.
We've recently started buying and testing running shoes with a very data-oriented approach. While we're just getting started, our methodology already has dozens of tests to help you make the right purchasing decision for your needs. Not only do we use high-end equipment to gather objective data, but we also order multiple sizes of the same shoes for team members to be able to log in miles. This real-world testing is done at various paces and conditions, and with different types of workouts, to cover all the bases. This allows us to verify our results and ensure they align with what you might feel with a specific pair.
