Since Asics doesn't make the Kayano walking shoes anymore I had to try this Gel-tech Neo.  Some of the reviewers thought this was a great shoe, I did not. I had pain in my left foot the first time I wore them.  I wouldn't recommend these for anyone who has flat feet or is used to a better quality of Asics walking shoes. I walk 4+ miles every other day so I need a shoe that is supportive and takes the shock off the road.  This isn't the one. Not sure where I going to find a shoe like the Kayano walkers.
