The GEL-KAYANO® LITE 3 running shoe embraces a sound earth. With a greater emphasis on sustainability, this shoe keeps your step stable and your mind light.

Its engineered mesh upper is made with a higher percentage of recycled polyester than the previous version. The collar and tongue’s recycled textiles are helping us take additional steps towards lightening our impact on the environment.

FLYTEFOAM™ cushioning is made from organically derived materials. We added more of this lightweight foam in the forefoot to create a more energetic rebound at toe-off.

The 3D SPACE CONSTRUCTION™ feature addresses the gait differences of male and female runners. It's designed to reduce overpronation, which keeps your foot supported.

SPECIFICATION

• Surface - Road
• Heel drop - 23-15mm
• Weight - 275g
• Support - Stability
• Cushion - Maximum

PRONATION
The GEL-KAYANO LITE 3 is made for Overpronation.

• Foot Type - Low arches or flat feet
• Push off - Big toe and second toe do majority of the work.
• How your foot contacts the ground - The foot lands on outside of heel, then rolls inward (pronates) excessively, transferring weight to inner edge instead of ball of the foot.

TECH & FEATURES

• Ahar Rubber Sponge Outsole
  Acronym for ASICS High Abrasion Rubber. Placed in critical areas of the outsole for exceptional durability.
• Flytefoam Technology
  Our lightest midsole ever. Its organic fibres bounce back into its original shape in the space of each stride to provide perfect cushioning from the start of your run to the finish.
• Full Ground Contact
  Provides a smooth and stable transition from foot strike to toe off.
• Gel - Rearfoot And Forefoot
  Attenuates shock during impact and toe-off phases, and allows movement in multiple planes as the foot transitions through the gait cycle.
• Guidance Line
  Longitudinal groove that decouples tooling along the line of progression for enhanced gait efficiency.
• 3D Space Construction
  This technology is implemented through a series of strategically planted pillars within the midsole, allowing runners to experience more compression in a specific area without reducing durability or stability. These pillar formations are tuned differently in the men's and women's models to address each gender's biomechanical data
