As thorough as ever with your review Chris. You go into such great detail in every shoe. I appreciate you 😊
👍😃
Great first impression Chris, thanks for uploading 👍🏻
Thanks mate, hope your's don't take too long to arrive 👍😃
@@HereWeAreRunning me too!!! 🙏🏻🤣
Nice review Chris. Got to love new shoe day, I only have that feeling every now and then 😉😂
Thanks Sam. Nothing better than a new shoe day 👍😄
The Kayano is now my go to running shoe for zone 2 training and recovery. For years i was high jacking my progress by following the shoe vloggers and the obsession with soft neutral - often times unstable shoes. I find the wide fit option for the shoe works best for me - although re colour its a Ford choice - you can have any colour you want as long as its black! The Kayano is a fantastic shoe - but my 27s wore at the same rate at the same spot on the sole as yours
Thanks for sharing your experiences of the Kayano, Craig. Fingers crossed the AHAR+ rubber on the Kayano 28 will be more hard wearing than on the Kayano 27.
Very detailed review Chris!
Thanks Suzie 👍😃
Great thank you! Will order one next month.
Thanks Nik, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
My favourite shoe. Stability shoe reviews are hard to come by, pleased you're here flying the stability flag.
Thank you 👍
You are right, there aren't many running TH-cam channels who have people who actually need stability shoes, reviewing stability shoes. Hopefully makes my channel a bit unique.
Very smart looking shoe Chris. Like that colour way. 👌🏻 top video buddy. 😎🤘🏻
Thanks Ben 👍😀
Awesome review man! Have a quick question for you, I pronater moderate to severely on my right foot when running at higher paces and am currently running NB 860 v12 and Mizuno horizon 5 I want to add another stability shoe to my staple would you recommend these for stability and comfort on treadmill runs at moderate to high pace over the Saucony Hurricane 23 or the Mizuno inspire 17? I can’t decide which would support and give the best comfort ?
It's lucky that you always happen to be filming when the postman arrives with new shoes 😁👍🏻
You, just have to be ready for that door bell, you never know when a delivery might turn up 😂
I just bought one and can’t wait to get them, I liked the review, also had just a question which is are they good on indoor and outdoor track?
Good review chris.Iam an ASICS running shoe fan.
🇫🇯🇫🇯🇫🇯🇫🇯🇫🇯🇫🇯From
Fiji.
Thank you 👍😀
And welcome to the channel, all the way from Fiji.
My PT reffered me to these shoes, esp due to great pronation. I Suffer from a massive issues in my femur, ankles & foot and these shoes alone allow me to be stable enough to walk, I have to wear them around my house in order to be able to walk, they are a absolute miracle. I wish I could run again, these would be fabulous I imagine!
Glad to hear that they are helping you and hope that maybe you'll be able to run in them one day.
Thanks for the review. Just ordered this last night and can't wait. Been racking up the kilometres this year faster than normal and need to retire my 27s soon. Just annoyed that it takes a few weeks for these to arrive.
Thanks Wendi. I know the feeling. I had to wait 3 weeks when I ordered directly from Asics early this year, so for these I ordered from Start Fitness and they arrived next day. Hopefully worth the wait when your's arrive.
Oh I didn't know about Start Finish. Will have to check them out next time! Before the pandemic, Asics used to be quick at delivery.
@@wendif634 Yeah, even last year during the pandemic they were fine but since the start of the year when the Brexit rules applied, they take ages because they ship from the EU.
I’ve been running on Kayano 26 for 18 months and enjoyed the stability of the shoe. I will need to pick up a pair of 28’s soon as the different gel appears to be an upgrade.
You'll certainly notice the different midsole foam in the Kayano 28, Jonathan. I certainly think it's an improvement.
I bought a pair of 26s online for $60. I'm not worried about the latest model, I just like deals.
I have the kayano 27 and 28. I love both of them. I personally don't feel a big difference between them but I am not the most experienced runner. Compared to my GT 2000 I really feel the better cushion but have the feeling I my feet get hotter. I didn't really need an extra pair but the neon orange-pink of the women's shoe sold it to me 😅.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts Alicia. I'd certainly agree about feet getting warm in these shoe. I think the difference in feel between the 27 and 28 is a subtle. For me the 28 has a bit more bounce and energy return due to the FF Blast midsole. Neon orange-pink, what a great colour, how could you not buy it 😂
Hey, I have serious over pronation and never really used Asics. I wanted to know if I can use Asics as a daily shoe as I am not into running. Also could you help me choose between the kayano 28 and kayano lite 2? ( The store keeper said the kayano lite 2 is better as it should provide better support for my arches). Also does shoes like the ultraboost 22 provide support for the arches?
Thank you so incredibly much for your review! Im trying to decide if i should get these. I tried them on and they felt absolutely amazing. I have been a runner , walker and fitness freak for MANY years, yet never invested in really good shoes before. However, now im suffering from osteoarthritis and various other foot problems at times (inc plantar fasciitis. I also have osteoporosis ). I know i need a lot of support. Of the shoes i tried the other day, these felt the best/ most comfortable, but i cant help feeling a little nervous spending so much on the shoes when i haven't gone on a long walk with them! So far your review is definitely the best and really is pushing me toward "yes get them now". Any more advice would be greatly appreciated! edit- may sound strange but wanted to mention i also have narrow feet (it may change your thoughts or recommendations 😊)
I know what you mean. It's always disappointing to spend good money on shoes that then turn out to be not right for you and feels like a waste. Worth checking the Asics website in your region and what benefits they offer if you sign up for free as a One Asics member. In the UK, you get 90 days to try the shoes out and return them if you aren't happy, even if you've worn them, which is very reassuring.
Hi, I also have plantar fasciitis and I just tried these shoes today and I felt so comfortable in it, feeling like my foot was held very well in a slipper and that's rarely the case. Did you finally buy them?
Second run in my new 28’s this morning. Love them…feels like I’m running in my Nan’s slippers 😂
The shape/fit reminds me of the Cumulus. Very plush.
I agree Tim, a very cushioned shoe, nice and plush and ideal for the easy days and long runs.
X2
thanks for the review. these are now on special but wondering how have you found the durability of the outsole rubber ? was not the greatest in the 27's thanks
Much better on the 28 than the 27. I gave a bit of an update on this video: th-cam.com/video/zITHK5Q1JWY/w-d-xo.html
Good review
Thanks Yiannis 👍😃
How is the shoe holding up to running. I'm curious to see if the wear is as good as the 26 or is it more like the 27. Great videos btw I've just subscribed.
Holding up fine, unlike the 27.
My only issue is a blister I get on my inside left heal, which I have to do a few things to prevent it happening, including limiting the length of my long runs in this shoe.
Hi, i'm very new to running myself and find that i have quite strong overpronation when i run, I have been looking at these now online, would these help with this?
Thanks for the video. Would this be the best asics cushioned shoe for the ball of foot? Thanks
ASICS make lots of cushioned shoes, some for those that need a neutral shoe and others for those that need some support due to over pronation. This is very much a support shoe and IMO its the most cushioned and stable support shoe that ASICS make.
This just excited me that 27s will be on sale
Yep 27 is already being discounted but watch out for the excessive wear issue on the mid foot area of the outsole that many owners of the 27 have experienced.
Did the Kayano 28's wear better than the 27's? Need to replace them now with either the 28 or 29. 28 is on offer at 128 EUR compared to 190 EUR for the 29.
I ordered myself a red pair last night! Hoping they arrive before my Mrs clocks that I have been buying more running gear 😂
Good luck on that one Tim. I need to get a new shoe rack and I'm wondering how to sneak that under the radar, so as not to draw attention to all the new shoes 🤣
@@HereWeAreRunning I'm glad I'm not the only one Chris. Every pair is necessary though 😂
I get it - my other half doesn't know I just bought them yet. 😉
Outstanding shoes
How do they fit in width? I'm between a standard and wide depending on model of running shoe.
I'm size 9 UK but they don't have my size just 8.5 or 9.5 what one should I choose?
Is this also suitable for high or low arch long distance runner?
Yo siempre he comprado Adidas hace dos días compré unas asics Gel son muy suaves fantásticas toca mirar si verdaderamente salen de buena calidad y sean duraderas
another great video i had brooks gts 20, are the kayano 28 better than brooks gts 21s
I love both shoes but currently the Kayano 28 is my favourite. Once I've done more distance in it, I'll do a proper comparison video.
@@HereWeAreRunning thanks im looking forward too it. thanks again
Can this be used by an high or low arc runner?
How would say these compare to the sacauny hurricane 23?
Just wondering if you had any updates on this shoe and how it's holding up? Trying to figure out if I want to get a pair of these kayano 28's or if I should go with the Hoka gaviota 3's 🤷♂️ I've been running with Asics for years but have heard good stuff about Hoka and their stability shoes. Thanks man!
Durability is good so far. Not had the outsole wear issues many runners had with the Kayano 27. I don't think the FF Blast foam is quite as bouncy as it was to begin with but still a really comfortable shoe. Except, for reasons I haven't worked out yet, the last couple of long runs I got a blister on the inside heel area of my left foot. Personally I don't get on with Hoka, after having issues with the Hoka Arahi 4.
@@HereWeAreRunning thanks appreciate the info mate!
Will these help with a big toe injury ?
Great video and channel. If you had to pick one between this, Adrenaline GTS 21, or Glycerine GTS 19? I can probably afford 2 but might only be able to get 1 to train for my first marathon. Not sure if I need this much support but running into naggling injuries already in my training block and want to make sure I’m doing everything I can to run protected
Thanks. If you over pronate and need to run in support shoes then I'd certainly recommend the Kayano 28 and the Adrenaline GTS 21. (I've not tried the Glycerine GTS 19 but suspect it's a bit more cushioned than the Adrenaline and a bit heavier.) Having a shoe rotation and alternating between two pairs, by two different brands will help to reduce the risk of injury. If I was only picking one though, it would probably be the Kayano. Good luck with your marathon training 👍😃
@@HereWeAreRunning thanks for your reply. That’s interesting that you say that as I watched one of your older videos and you went with the adrenaline there. Did ASICS step it up with the new kayano? Thanks again!
@@JB-hq9yj Both shoes have improved since the versions in that video but I'm really enjoying the feel of the new Kayano 28 at the moment. The FlyteFoam Blast midsole has made a dig difference in this version. I just hope that the outsole wear is better than the 27, or my opinion may change.
@@HereWeAreRunning Thanks so much! Cheers!
@@HereWeAreRunning just wanted to update that I got the kayano 28 and GTS 21 and glycerin gts 19 and MUCH prefer the ASICS in feel and overall quality. Such high build quality. Will see how they compare for running very soon
Hi! I was hoping to get some tips. I have tendonitis on my left heel but I'm a big fan of Asics. What particular model of Asics should i get? And any tips on running? Thanks in advance🙂
Do you know or have you sought any professional advice about what is causing the tendonitis? That's always worth doing. If they advise that you need a stability shoe, then this would be very good for that purpose. Good support around the heel area and lots of cushioning. But I'd seek some professional advice if I was you.
@@HereWeAreRunning thanks. I already did.Doc said it was caused by spending too much time on my feet. So i guess i"ll be looking for a shoes that has a lot of heel support.👍
Nice 1 bro
Thanks 👍😃
I started with the 24's and have had every new model since, I normally wait until I get about 400 Kms on them and then i'll get the new model and rotate them, I'll use the new models for my long easy runs. With this in mind, what models do you suggest for running in events (HM and M)?
If you were choosing between your different Kayano models, definitely run the event in the 28. It's lighter and the new FF Blast midsole is an improvement. It you wanted a different model of shoe to race in that still provides some stability (although only mild stability), consider the New Balance FuelCell Prism. I've run marathons and half marathons in it and got on well.
@@HereWeAreRunning Thanks for the reply and advice, I really appreciate it.
I'm in Melbourne, Australia, ASICS Australia will release the 28's here on the 15/7. Given what you said, I'll grab them and use them for the HM lead up event and also the Melbourne Marathon on 10th Oct.
Keep up the good work mate, your shoe analysis is excellent...!
Great review. I overpribate, so gave the gel kayano 27. I'm looking for a more tempo style shoe. What would you recommend please?
Thanks Chris. Check out my review of the Brooks Launch GTS 8, which I'm going to be using for tempo runs. Depending on how much you overpronate, also worth considering the New Balance FuelCell Prism (which is reduced at the moment, ahead of the V2 being released shortly). This is a great lightweight stability shoe, ideal for speed workouts, however only really suitable for mild overpronatation.
@@HereWeAreRunning thanks Chris. I've just watched your video on the launch 8. When you said it didn't have much energy return, that put me off a bit to be honest. On my level of pronation, Mymo says that I mid foot strike on both feet, have mild pronation (5°) in my left and severe pronation (9°) in my right. I used to run in 361° Strata 3, and have just got the Gel Kayano 27 as the Strata wore out, but want a "faster" shoe for speed training and race days to pair with the easier run days of the Gel Kayano. I have tried the Gel DS-Trainer 26, Adrenaline 21 and Ravenna 11, but I found each of those three to have poor grip at the front of the sole, so when I push off on my toes it felt like I was running on gravel when I was actually on the roads and pavements. Part of me is wondering should I not worry too much about the stability side of things, and see how an Endorphin Speed feels, as it gets some really great reviews.
@@Chris_Baily I've never tried the Endorphin Speed but what I would say is that the New Balance Prism is a really great shoe. I personally love the FuelCell midsole and as I'm not running in it all the time, I worry less about it only providing mild stability. I've run fast short distances all the way up to marathons in it. When I mentioned about the energy return of the Launch GTS 8, that is partly because the Prism has really good energy return in comparison.
Would this be recommended for people with underpronation/supination too?
Hello, new overpronation subscriber here!
Currently I’m running on Nike air zoom structure 22 and even though I have read reviews that mentioned it’s lack of support before I bought them, I didn’t believe them. And here I am, suffering from back pains while I run. In addition to this, they have an extreme wear on soles. I’m tracking their distance and it’s only 400 kilometers.
Wear and support. They are what I’m looking for right now. Do you recommend kayano 28?
Thanks for the video 🙏
Never liked Nike for stability shoes, they really don't care about overpronators, in my opinion. I think you'd find the Kayano 28 a much better shoe for stability and also far more comfortable. The Kayano 27 had some early outsole wear issues. I'm hopeful that the 28 isn't the same but I still need to build up some more distance in them to be sure. Earlier versions of the Kayano were very durable. I got at least 800km / 500 miles in the Kayano 26.
@@HereWeAreRunning thanks for the quick reply! I am going to buy a 28 then. I had one and only Asics shoe before but it was a neutral running shoe and I wasn’t aware of my overpronation at that time. It was a great shoe nonetheless. Let’s hope that 28 is going to be that good 👍🏻 can’t wait to write a comment in your upcoming long term review video!
@@xw3582 How have the 28's been? Im looking for a work shoe that I can stand and walk around on concrete for 10hrs in a machine shop environment. I won't be running in these but have flat feet and have recently learned I overpronate which is causing some knee aches and lower back aches even foot aches.
Just bought the 28s today. Had the 27s before hand and I will say the interior foam footbed is much thicker and plushy on the 28 than on the 27. Almost like wearing a Tempurpedic mattress on your feet.
28s definitely feel nice and soft, with plenty of bounce when they are knew. I found that some of the bounce disappeared a bit after the first 50 miles or so.
ASICS ambassador at 4K subs?!
Haha 😄🤣
i have extremely weak ankles, I roll them outwards VERY often (even when i'm just walking). I am trying to decide between these and the asics Kayano 27 or 28. Would love to hear your input!
These shoes are great for over pronators where the feet roll inwards. If I was you I look at the Brooks range of stability shoes that use guide rails. The Adrenaline GTS 21 is a favourite of mine.
I have the ASICS GT 2000 9, which I’m very happy with. Is there much of a difference between these and the Kayano 28?
I've not run in the Asics GT 2000 9 so can't give a direct comparison based on that but the key differences are that the GT2000 9 is a bit lighter, has a different midsole foam and based on the materials used, the Kayano should have a slightly more cushioned and comfortable ride. But for that, you pay £35 more for the Kayano.
I have older versions of the GT2000 and the Kayano, the Kayano is definitely more cushioned. I personally don't notice the weight difference when running.
Asics sizing seems to vary. I have a pair of Novablast 2 in US9 and it serves me well. But I need to size up to US9.5 when trying on Nimbus 24. Is the fit of Kayano 28 more like Novablast 2 or Nimbus 24?
If US9.5 worked well for you in the Nimbus 24, then I'd expect that size to fit with the Kayano 28.
@@HereWeAreRunning Thanks for writing back! Happy holidays!
Are these shoes good for custom foot orthodics
Is this comparable to the brooks adrenaline gts20
I noticed they used the same fabric material for the whole body as the 27s. Is that so?
For me personally that material got damaged and ripped quickly.
I had never experience that and I've been wearing Kayano since 2013
The upper material is very similar between the 27 and 28. That's interesting to hear, I've never had a problem with the material on the Kayano ripping, but I have had this beofre on older Asics shoes I owned about 4 or 5 years ago.
even my ripped, but they send me replacement shoe on warranty
I am a sprinter and I want some new shoes for training when I'm not wearing the spikes, are the kayanos OK for sprinting? Are they also OK for shin bone pains?
I just got into running and My shin splints keep coming back very often would these shoes help my problem ?
They may help but I would seek some advice from a physio or doctor, with any injury problems. The cause of shin splints, especially in new runners, is often that you are running too much, too soon and/or running too fast. Might be worth scaling things back a bit to see if that helps.
It's been 3 months since I bought it. I have flat feet. I walk a lot at work and don't feel tired. But when I stand constantly, I feel very tired (the problem is in my feet and not in the shoes). What is the solution?
Make custom orthotics
I am using Kayano 25 for last 2 years, absolutely no complaints! Kayano is undoubtedly the best running shoe.
I think you'll notice some good improvements in the Kayano 28. It's changed quite a bit since the 25.
Would you know how this compares to asics gel kayano lite 2? What will I miss out of kayano 28 if I go for lite 2?
I've never run in the Kayano Lite but it is a completely different shoe to the Kayano. They just share the name but personally I think that's a bit of a marketing thing. Having said that, the Kayano Lite is a bit lighter than the Kayano, uses Flyte Foam midsole rather than Flyte Foam Blast, has AHAR rubber outsole instead of AHAR+ and both shoes have different approaches to providing stability. I would expect the Kayano 28 to probably be the more stable of the two shoes. Both shoes offer good amount of cushioning.
@@HereWeAreRunning thank you!
Would these be good for occasional 15 min hiit style treadmill running?
Kayano 28 is my go to shoe on the treadmill. Enjoy it so much that I now spend most of my runs indoors.
Are you recommending this shoes for a beginner like me. Thank in Advance
I wouldn't recommend this shoe to anyone. My Best Stability Running Shoes 2021 video will explain why. I (and many other runners) got heal blisters running in the Kayano 28. Same issue with the Kayano 29.
thanks!
You're welcome 👍
Anyone with pronation issues or foot pain HAS to try these, worth every cent. I only use them for work not running though, started with the 27, 28 in the post
Thanks for sharing your thoughts 👍
Please which one you found better ? the 27 or 28? thank you
I'm looking for a work shoe myself and have been eyeing these for a couple months as my current work shoes are causing knee aches and lower back pair on concrete for 10hrs walking and standing. The only thing holding me back is that I hear that aren't that breathable which makes me wanna see how the Kayano 29 is but I wont be running in them but I also work in a non air conditioned environment so it gets 95+ degrees in the machine shop. Have you worn them in the warmer months?
any advice or comments about the kayano 28 sizing and if its roomy enough for the toes??i got the brooks gts21 they are very soft without enough bounce back.....also if you step on small tiny rocks they feel like nails
Certainly I find the Kayano 28 roomy in the toe box. I always find that both the Kayano and the Adrenaline GTS fit me true to size (UK size 11 for both). I'd say that the Kayano 28 has more bounce than the previous versions, thanks to the FF Blast midsole and probably a bit more than the Adrenaline 21. I've had no issues with feeling rocks through the Kayano 28, although I've mainly run on pavements so far.
I need help, Used Kayano 27 for 750km. But in last few runs I started experiencing pain on lateral side of my metarsel.
I think the gel has degraded bit overall shoe is fine.
I have a question for you, when do you change your Kayank?
I normally get around 800km from my Kayano's although less in the Kayano 27 due to excessive outsole wear. In terms of what to look out for and knowing when to replace your running shoes, I made a video that may help: th-cam.com/video/-9acXHXdF4Q/w-d-xo.html
Also, I have my Best Stability Running Shoes of 2021 coming out this week which should help if you are going to replace your shoes.
@@HereWeAreRunning Yah, now I think we are on same page. However, the range I got from authorized Asics seller is 1500km.
I think he is wrong about it.
Previously, I Used GT which had similar issues but it worn out more than Kayano.
I wear size 11 US. I feel that the size is bigger by half number. What do you think ?
For me it fits true to size. There are several shoe brands that I tend to go up half a size but not Asics. But if you find a half size up or down fits better for you, then go with that.
@@HereWeAreRunning thank you 🙏🏻
Do you ever wear orthotics? Just wondered what racing shoe you wear.
I don't. For racing, I've previously used the New Balance Fuelcell Prism (mild stability shoe) but I also have a pair of Next% 2 which I'll use for key races, even though they don't provide any stability.
@@HereWeAreRunning cheers
For those in the US, military vets get 40% off online purchase. These retail for $160, I got them for $109 delivered.
It's a great price 👍
Just ordered the winterized version £82.50 🤪
That sounds like good value 👍
Hi, I have the exact shoe you have in this video - same colour and everything. I’m really struggling with mine, I’ve been nursing a blister on the inner side of my left foot from using the shoe. It’s where the foot meets the inside of the guard rail and it’s just above the sole area. It’s now become a blood blister. It’s appeared towards the side of my heel. Shoe is narrower towards the back. I’ve got enough room in the toe box area. I’m tempted to sack them off and go with something else. Right foot is fine by the way.
Blisters with the Kayano 28 and 29 are an issue for many runners. In my 28, I've changed the insole and it's helped. Might be worth a try before you bin them.
@@HereWeAreRunning thanks for the response - any recommendations as to an insole or where I could pick one up? The only reason I’m sticking with them still is that I want to give them the benefit of the doubt because I know they are such a good shoe on paper. Thanks again.
@@TavsIsAbout I use Enertor insoles which have shock absorption. But you could just try a cheap pair of insoles and see if it makes any difference.
@@HereWeAreRunning thank you again. Would the insole help if the blister is actually on the side of my foot? Like I say I think it’s rubbing against the inner wall just above the base of the sole
@@TavsIsAbout My blister is on on inner left heel area and changing the insole helped. Still not the most comfortable shoe and I don't wear it for long runs but also don't get blisters on shorter distances now that the insole has changed. But really it's just a case of giving it a try and see if it works for you or not.
I think "stablity shoes" can benefit ANYONE. Even for people with zero pronation issues. Stablity is a good thing. I mean, would you prefer an "unstable shoe"?? :)) Just helps anyone keep more rubber on the ground. Running in a striaght line or cornering.
They sould put some "stablity" into "race shoes" . Odd they aren't thinking along those lines e.g. Metaspeed shoes. (not that they're UNstablee...but I'd say "less" because of the high stack height at 30mm).
is this the MK version? what is the difference between normal and MK version?
No this is the normal version. The MK stands for MONO-SOCK. It appears to more of a bootie style of upper that hugs the foot into the shoe more. I suspect that the other features of the shoe are the same as the normal version.
@@HereWeAreRunning dont suppose you know if this affects stability or ventilation?
@@gsian187 I wouldn't expect it to make a difference to the ventilation. Regarding stability, the mono sock is designed to offer some additional suppport by wrapping around the foot.
laces are short or long ?
Can I buy this shoe for walking not running ?
Laces are perfect length for me. You could just walk in it but it's designed as a running shoe.
Could you please, Tell me the name of asics shoe designed for walking for overpronator feet
@@MohamedGamal-gm1in I don't think Asics make shoes specifically designed for walking.
thank you so much for replying . Final question please,what is the difference between running and walking shoes ?
Is it good for long walk?
If you are walking to pavements and are looking for comfort and support then this would be a good choice.
Asics nimbus the best for me
Has it the same durability Problems as the 27s?
Mine are OK so far but due to injury, I've been slow to build up the distance in them. I'll definitely make another video once I've run more miles in them and can be sure on the durability.
@@HereWeAreRunning thanks a lot 😀
I put 500 miles on my 27's had no durability issues
@@derakbell8143 really?
I have used them for only 200 k and the outsole looks bad.Maybe its only cosmetic in my case
The 27; is too light.. just bought it a few days ago for rear cushioning essentially .. failed, skimpy .. will return them .. Hoka??? Or Brooks .. but everything Is too light.. weight saving a grave error .l we hate that .. n0 1 priority is we don’t want pounding.. so get that message ASICS and all makers
That's interesting. Personally on an every day tyoe of shoe that I'm not intending to use for speed work, I care less about how heavy/light the shoe is and more about how well balanced it is. But as the brands evolve their shoes, they often do try to make newer versions lighter than the previous one. For me though the Kayano (especially the 28) is a very cushioned and comfortable shoe.
@@HereWeAreRunning look the kayano are good so yeh I overrated because to me they are making a lot of these too light. My theory is that kids now in their 20s and say 30s are in general much more physically stronger than say baby bloomers.. so a heavier shoe should be fine them .. nit talking a lot heavier but certainly not what where they are going .. getting lighter
I'm very mobile and walk my dog 8 klms every day but I'm 71 abd just think they are too light nor now

Thanks for providing your feedback.
What is your favourite running shoe brand?
As thorough as ever with your review Chris. You go into such great detail in every shoe. I appreciate you 😊
Thanks Lisa, I do like to try and get as much detail out there as possible without making the video too long. Glad that you appreciate it.
