Asics GEL-Kayano 33 vs Topo Athletic Phantom 4
The GEL-Kayano 33 is the pick for overpronators who want maximum cushioning and a wide, roomy fit, especially in the 4E width. The Phantom 4 is the better choice for neutral runners who want a lighter, more flexible daily trainer with a roomy toe box. Reviewers praise the Kayano's stability and durability, but some report heel sinking, numb toes and a clunky heel-strike feel. The Phantom 4 is lighter and more natural underfoot, but it offers no pronation support.
- Choose the GEL-Kayano 33 if you overpronate, want maximum stability cushioning, or need an extra-wide 4E fit.
- Choose the Phantom 4 if you have a neutral gait and want a lighter, more flexible daily trainer with a wide toe box.
