This is the 4th version of the Kayano I have purchased and unfortunately the 31 gave me forefoot issues on my longer runs (metatarsalgia type symptoms).

I have since purchased the Kayano 32 wide and extra wide and all the symptoms have dissipated. Not sure if it’s the added forefoot cushioning or the lower heel drop but this is my favorite running shoe I have ever owned! Thank you asics for making the changes, Kayano 32 (wide for me) is awesome.
