Runner's Tribe

The ASICS Gel-Kayano series is a staple in the running community, especially among those who require stability and support. The Gel-Kayano 31 continues this legacy, offering a blend of comfort and support for long-distance runners. ASICS has made some significant updates in this model, making it one of the best options for overpronators seeking a smooth, stable ride.

Plantar fasciitis is a prevalent overuse injury, particularly among runners, characterized by the irritation, inflammation, or tearing of the plantar fascia due to repetitive stress.
