Those Brooks look like they're inspired by the adidas P.O.D 3.1s. Hes, the adizero adios pro 2 should be coming out in Q3 in two versions. They look sick.
I work at a run specialty shop. ASICS gel nimbus probably softer and more squishy plus it’s readily available. The kayano is a stability running shoe so it’ll be a bit more firm but it is their max cushion stability option. From other running brands I’d recommend the brooks glycerin 19 or even the glycerin GTS if you like a bit more stable without sacrificing cushion. Always a top pick at my store and for runners in general.
I don't know if these counts but I tried to get into the react hype and ended up getting some React Miler. Now every other sneaker I wear feels like concrete!
Bro your comfy sneaker videos are awesome. You should try this Chinese brand 361 degrees... They have this quikfoam tech ( similar to hypeerburst) theyes crazy cheap and feels something in between react and boost.

I've just got the 4dfwd's and I prefer my vapormax's for comfort but I'm assuming the 4D needs to do a lot of breaking in, the 3d printed part is not as soft as I was hoping
Hmmmm non of these really passes the eye-test; they all look very performance and not fashion-driven. I have my UltraBoost and ZoomX Invincible Run. I think I'm set for a while in terms of comfort.
@@benjaminzaoui9683 The UltraBoost DNA line were designed to be performance shoes, but they can hardly be considered that nowadays. Definitely a lifestyle model now. Have you tried on a pair of ZoomX Invincible Run? If you have you wouldn't care how it looks; they are the most comfortable thing you can put on your feet. Also they don't look bad on-feet at all.
@@star42 Yes, I pointed to the Invincible Run in particular because you didn't specify the UB model. It's true og Ultraboost is hardly a performance sneaker. I'll have to disagree on the Invincible Run though. I don't know what Nike designers have been smoking this past year. Whereas I am a believer in ZoomX tech, the new shoes are all a step down from their predecessors, including the React Infinity Run vs the Nike React Flyknit 1 and 2 (those were simple and sharp). I'm a fan of the Pegasus Turbo as well. If you haven't, try to get a pair of those, they feature both ZoomX and React. Great performance for running, good comfort, and really sharp looking, imo.
This content is actually very very helpful when it comes to figuring out the best quality shoe and the style cause I have a hard time of searching for the shoe I want on different websites that just don’t seem legit so I come to this channel to see good upcoming sneakers and such. Thanks Hes Kicks keep up the useful content 👍 Disclaimer: if you think I’m being sarcastic I’m not being sarcastic
Recommend - if it's the old school Asics max cushion, then you're better off with the Nimbus vs the Kayano...with the new NBs, I'll suggest the new Rebel v2.
I have Kayano27(don’t have 28 tho), and it’s not squishy at all cuz those are for over pronation feet and needs more stability for not collapsing ankles inside. I think 28 as well are not squishy as you love. I love those cuz I have over pronation feet and really stabilize my feet. These are the least cushion shoes in the ASICS running shoes.
1:27 - It'd be amazing if you can review some Under Armour stuff (Phantom 2's , Havoc 3's , Flows). Hope they can reach out to you and send you some free goodies for review as it's hard to find much info on their stuff tbh. For such a big brand even Reddit doesn't seem interested in their stuff , which is kind of weird.
Just got shoes this evening. Can't wait to try them out tomorrow. True to size. Wear same size 13 as all other Brooks I've purchased. Very Beautiful... Mind Blowingly Light... Extremely Stable for such a high stack height ( 38 heel, 32 forefoot, 6 drop ). No wobbling from side to side at all... No rolling ankles inward nor outward in this shoe... Fit like glove & plenty room in toe box... Material ( mono-mesh / mono-filament ) is see through in forefront of shoe so can see clearly whatever socks one is wearing or toes if not wearing socks... Mono-mesh will permit heat to escape & air to come in with very little resistance; this keeping forefoot & toes nice & cool... Love Segmented / Decoupling separation of heel... Lacing Good... Heel Nice, Bit Shallow, Snug & Secure, but not too tight... Rubber on out soles probably won't last long... However, if like feel after couple days will most likely get me another pair to wear once current ones wear out since these are being released aa limited edition. Heard only 7,000 were made... It's expensive shoe if tread wears quickly, which I think it will... It's prototype shoe to tests, develop & experiment with multiple new techniques in one shoe... This would probably be perfect replacement /addition to Beast, just add same type of rubber on the Beast to Aurora-BL so get long tread wear... Love Brooks Aurora-BL so far...
if you dont like the Kayano 28’s, try Gel Quantums, they have Gel as the midsole and has a nice looking upper, ive also seen barely any Gel Quantum reviews so it’ll be something fresh!
You should check out the RC Elite v2 instead of the v1 and as for New Balance they made a big update to the Fresh Foam More v3 for an even softer and bouncier feel.
Have you ever tried the Asics Gel-Quantum Infinity? It’s supposed to be a running shoe, but it’s pretty heavy and feels like a pillow rather than a spring, so I feel like it’s better for walking.
Puma liberate nitro are awesome. Closest thing to boost I've ever felt. Not too soft but definitely not firm. One of the lightest shoes on the market. Only $100
Lol, I’m glad you point out the IG DM and hopefully you can give few sneaker page some shoutout with your huge influence around the sneaker community. There’s a lot of us inspired by you and trying so much hard to get recognition after putting in enormous work effort to this passion of ours
They are simply fantastic... Cushion is great but not squishy... Very Stable, Comfortable, Light, Feet Stayed Cool, Especially Toes... I have narrow foot, medium arch... Normally I'd wear custom insoles with max cushion created in store that's molded to fit my feet... But the Aurora-BL doesn't seem to need the additional support nor cushion. However, I'm going to have some insoles made just to try & see what they'd feel like in Aurora-BLs... "Custom Insoles that are Perfectly Molded to My Feet " with Max Cushion Make Aurora-BLs feel even better & more magnificent & more fantastic... And additional height ( 2 mm ) didn't cause my feet to cramped or pushing against top of shoe... Shoe feels stable because last ( outsole design ) is mostly straight and outsole is very wide... The Extended Heel and Segmented / Decoupled Heel seems to enhance stabilty... They remind me how my Beast 16s felt & I loved those shoes. Went through 4 pairs, each shoe getting 700 to 750 miles ( I would alternate every other day between two pairs ) until reached 1400 to 1500 miles total... I used to wear Brooks exclusively & Beast 16s were shoes I started with when they first came out because I had sever over-pronation & bad case of Plantar Fasciitis at time: Aug 2016... After going through first two pairs of Beast 16s ( 1500 miles & 18 months later ) went to Runners Shoe Store and they did video of me walking on treadmil with shoes & barefoot & over-pronation was completely gone... Plantar Facilities was completely gone after three months of wearing Beast 16s... I fell in love with Beast 16s. I had never experienced the feeling of : Walking on Air, Walking on Clouds, Walking on Piillows before... Even after 5 to 7 hrs in shoes on all type of terrain ( hills: long descents & inclines, roads, sidewalks, hard dirt packed trails, rocky trails)... The best thing was I didn't even notice my feet... Not tired, Not Hot, Plenty of Wiggle room in toe box... Feet Just Felt Great... I would have stayed with Beast but they said if I did the motion control in the Beast would start me to under-pronate / supinate ( force foot to roll outward ) & there are no running shoes that could correct that... And it's not an easy anomaly to correct. Since there were no brook shoes I liked that I could transfer / transition into from the Beast, I went with Hokas for 2.5 yrs after & bought practically every trail shoe they had & many of their road running shoes too... For past 24 months have been in Hokas... Brooks Aurora-BL remind me of Hoka Bondi ( high stack height : 38 heel, 32 forefoot ), Clifton Edge ( extended heel ) & Rincon 2 ( super light )... I would highly recommend people just try Aurora-BL, that's only way to know how it'll work for them... No amount of reviews from others can ultimately determine if Aurora-BL is or is not for them or will or will not work for them... Took Aurora-BL to gym too and they were great there too... I'm very Proud of Brooks for Creating this Shoe... I've recently purchased Brooks Adrenaline GTS 21 & those should be delivered later today... Also got Glycerin 19, but it looks like the nitro injected foam will first be available in Glycerin 20s... I hope they'll continue to make Aurora-BLs or something very similar... I'd come back to Brooks because of this shoe... Like Aurora-BL looks too, color & style... I could see myself using the Aurora-BLs for next year or more if they continue to make it & outsole rubber last at least 350 miles & nitro injected cushion also last for that duration...
I work retail 40hrs+ a lot of walking and standing all day it’s seems my feet always hurt especially in my heel when standing for a while. I’ve tried nike air max and Pegasus but they wear down and asics will never buy again. Also had ultra boost worked for a while wore down. I recently bought Ecco sneakers hoping for relief returned them and and got ultra boost 21 so far so good but if you have some suggestions much appreciated or anyone thx
Do not get the Kayano for cushioning; it’s actually their mild stability shoe, and has never particularly been soft. The one you should try is the Nimbus which is the neutral max cushion counterpart of the Kayano.
The stack height of the Aurora-BL is 37mm in the heel and 31mm in the forefoot. Also saw: 26 heel & 20 forefoot... Just heard: 42 heel, 36 forefoot Hmm? I have two being delivered hopefully today 12.5 & 13
I love these kinda videos
I never thought I would be jealous of an intro :)

Great vid - that Brooks shoe looks bananas - I can’t believe I’m saying this but that’s the one I’m most excited for
Did you ever review the UA Velociti?
The brook's DNA look dope! Great video God bless
10:14 what model brooks are these?
Def try those Brooks
I really want you to review the 4dfwd. I'm a huge 4d fan and am curious of the new 4d design
Trying to get a pair!

Also I’m pretty sure they both come in a 2E and a 4E^
Huge fan bro
You should try the new balance fresh foam roav
I don't know if these counts but I tried to get into the react hype and ended up getting some React Miler. Now every other sneaker I wear feels like concrete!
I’ll have to give that one a try!
I second this notion!!
@@heskicks The Nike Miler is way softer than infinity run. Close to ZX 2k boost level of soft squish lol
@@heskicks I got them from watching your stuff man, keep up the great content!
You gotta try the Kane footwear shoes!!
I see a lotta people up here
On the upper west side of
Manhattan wearing those Hokas!
Mostly older people though!
But they do look comfy
I see the same but in the PNW. Comfy looking but just too much rocker motion for me.
BrandBlack has some super cushy shoes and they look insanely cool
Try the Saucony Endorphin series.
Bro your comfy sneaker videos are awesome.
You should try this Chinese brand 361 degrees... They have this quikfoam tech ( similar to hypeerburst) theyes crazy cheap and feels something in between react and boost. And n they have this new Aaron Gordon signature runnner ( yeah i know hes a bball guy, but Chinese brands r weird af) n they have this soft foam, quikfoam and a rocker TPU really looks nice.
I wish i can give you the model or name but these Chinese brands have weird way of naming their shoes so its hard to Google them.
If ur curious i can share the pictures or something
I've just got the 4dfwd's and I prefer my vapormax's for comfort but I'm assuming the 4D needs to do a lot of breaking in, the 3d printed part is not as soft as I was hoping
Asics kayano is their stability shoe for flat foot
Nimbus is their cushioning line
asics quantum infinity 2 or the quantum 360 super comfortable
Thank you.
For you also a great day!
I love your channel, youre the best!
I have four different color variations of Adidas 4D tech sneaks-Love them‼️
Can you review New Balance Fresh Foam More V3 ?? It's very soft cushioning shoes that I've tried this year !
Isnt there an Adidas/Reebok mash up shoe coming out?
the asics nimbus is the neutral version of the kyano which has support in the internal side for flat footed ...
Hmmmm non of these really passes the eye-test; they all look very performance and not fashion-driven.
I have my UltraBoost and ZoomX Invincible Run. I think I'm set for a while in terms of comfort.

Huge adidas fan love that last shoe reminds me of the old Oregon running shoe

170 honestly isn’t that bad

I spit out my coffee when i saw 12:05 because this picture is taken 5 meters from where i live never expected this its taken in Arnhem 😂😂😂
I’m been dying for this vid
Btw size 13 lmao
For a high-cushion ASICS shoe you should try the gel-nimbus 23!
I guess asics Nimbus 23 is also referred as max cushion shoes
Have you ever tried the Asics Gel-Quantum Infinity? It’s supposed to be a running shoe, but it’s pretty heavy and feels like a pillow rather than a spring, so I feel like it’s better for walking.
Hope you can also check out the UA Hovr Phantom 2 or the Machina 2 (this one has carbon plate so might be not that squishy).
Maybe they are old news... but Brooks Ghost 13 and Levitate 4 are some legit soft runners. Definitely check those out.
NB Fresh Foam More V3
A great top 10 video would be great looking shoes for people with flat feet.
Can you try tarther blast from ASICS - lifestyle version of novablast- need to know if it’s good cause it looks better for casual wear
Puma liberate nitro are awesome. Closest thing to boost I've ever felt. Not too soft but definitely not firm. One of the lightest shoes on the market. Only $100

Fuel cell elite is carbon plated though - probably not a smart wear for casual like vaporfly, alpha fly, endorphin pro
Flow is actually a very firm cushioning system. At least it is on the a Curry 8. They’re comfortable, but far from soft and squishy..
