Gel-kayano 5 og

The 1999 GEL-KAYANO ™ 5 OG running shoe is making a comeback and retaining its original design. After a first sketch on paper, designer Toshikazu Kayano was quick to emphasize the resemblance of the upper to the bone structure, organs and muscles of the human anatomy.

Originally, this shoe made two improvements to the lineage of the existing model: the teardrop-shaped tongue and the QUADRA lacing system.

Working in concert, these technologies create an improved fit with better support in the midfoot.

The GEL-KAYANO ™ 5 OG shoe features GEL ™ cushioning technology in the heel for added comfort, while the layered application of components has become the foundation that still influences shoe design today.
