Reviving a running heritage classic, the GEL-KAYANO 12.1 merges 2006 aesthetics with contemporary cushioning innovation. Its upper draws inspiration from European gothic armor—delivering structural integrity through synthetic leather overlays paired with breathable mesh. The midsole borrows proven technology from the GEL-NIMBUS 17, pairing dual GEL™ inserts with FLUIDRIDE™ cushioning for sustained comfort across distance. A refined approach to performance footwear that honors legacy while delivering modern support.
