Enjoy excellent comfort and advanced support with the GEL-KAYANO® 27 LITE-SHOW™ running shoe. The redesigned mesh upper helps keep feet cool, while the sole is more flexible to help promote a more natural roll through the gait cycle. This limited model offering also incorporates reflective accents throughout the design, which allow you to stay more visible in low-light conditions. At midstance, the foot should stop pronating and re-supinate for an efficient toe-off. To help this natural motion, we incorporate DYNAMIC DUOMAX® technology to help support the foot and increase stability for runners whose feet roll inward too much (overpronate). The midsole also integrates SPACE TRUSSTIC™ technology, which provides stability and reduces the overall weight to help promote a smoother transition from foot strike to toe-off. This added stability is complemented by deeper forefoot flex grooves for a smoother roll through toe-off, allowing the shoe to move more naturally with the foot. The GEL-KAYANO® 27 LITE-SHOW™ model is an excellent choice for both competitive and noncompetitive runners looking for an everyday trainer that combines comfort with support.
