Women’s Asics Gel-Kayano 31 Running Shoes

Built for runners who value support, comfort, and long-distance reliability, the ASICS GEL-Kayano 31 Women’s delivers advanced stability and plush cushioning for smooth, confident miles. Designed for road running, daily training, walking, gym sessions, and active lifestyles, these premium stability trainers help create a balanced and comfortable running experience from start to finish.

The GEL-Kayano 31 features FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO cushioning, providing lightweight softness and responsive comfort with every stride. This advanced foam technology helps absorb repetitive impact while maintaining a smooth and energized ride, making it ideal for both daily mileage and longer training sessions.

Engineered with the innovative 4D GUIDANCE SYSTEM™, the shoe adapts to your natural movement pattern to provide dynamic stability and support. Designed for runners who benefit from additional guidance, this technology helps encourage a more balanced stride without feeling overly restrictive, making it a great choice for overpronators and support-focused runners.

PureGEL™ technology in the heel enhances shock absorption and creates softer landings, helping reduce impact stress during runs, walks, and everyday activity. Combined with the high-cushion platform, it delivers premium comfort throughout every mile.

Size chart

Running and sports shoes

• Brush off loose dirt with a soft brush after each run.
• Remove the laces and insoles before cleaning.
• Clean with lukewarm water, a mild soap and a soft cloth.
• Never put running shoes in a washing machine or dryer.
• Let them air dry at room temperature, away from radiators and direct sun.
• If you run often, rotate between two pairs so the cushioning can recover.

Casual and everyday shoes

• Wipe them down after wear to stop dirt settling in.
• Use a cleaner made for the material: leather, suede or mesh.
• Condition leather now and then to keep it soft.
• Keep them away from damp and store them in a cool, dry place.

Helpful tips

• Stuff damp shoes with paper to hold their shape while they dry.
• Do not leave shoes in a hot car or near a heater.
• Replace the insoles once they feel flat.
• A protective spray helps mesh and suede resist water and stains.

Every pair at Shoe North is chosen for comfort, support and everyday performance. The materials are selected for how the shoe is meant to be used, so a road running shoe and a street sneaker are built differently.

• Uppers: engineered mesh, knit or leather, chosen for breathability, flexibility and durability.
• Midsoles: cushioning foams that absorb impact and return energy, from soft max-cushion platforms to firmer responsive setups.
• Outsoles: rubber compounds placed where the shoe wears most, for grip on roads, pavements and trails.
• Fit: padded collars and tongues, secure lacing and, on many models, wide-fit options.

Materials and construction differ by model. The exact details for the pair you are looking at are listed under Specifications in the description above.
