I love the kayano line. Only shoe for overpronators that isn’t ugly in my opinion. Companies seem to think flat footed people like our shoes to look bargain bin
I wore the Kayanos for years without problem. I was excited to try these, but they really hurt the outside bottom of my my feet. I had to return them. They seem like.a great show for some people, but I am not sure they work for all Kayano wearers.
Is there a Gel-Kayano Lite 2 coming out soon? I love my current Gel-Kayano Lite (I have flat feet and I pronate as a result), but I am putting on the Kms. I have to decide what to do next
Slightly unrelated, but you guys seem extremely knowledgeable. I slightly over pronate, and have worn moderate support (Mizuno Wave Inspire/Asics GT2000) running shoes for years. Would you recommend trying to strengthen my feet and ankles and moving to a neutral shoe? Ive always felt like this is an ideal. Is this possible? Ive ran barefooted/forefoot before and although my ankle muscles burnt out quickly, it felt amazing. If this is possible, what method would you recommend training and transitioning? Recommend a shoe? I'm 185, 34, training for a half marathon, and currently run about about 3, 5 mile sessions per week. Thanks guys!
I’d recommend going to a pt and working on strengthening your supporting muscles while you slowly work a more neutral shoe into your rotation. This shoe and the Nimbus Lite 2 would be good shoes to start with. Try running one of your runs each week in them and then see how your legs and hips feel. If there isn’t an issue work in more runs and finally start adding in other light neutral trainers.
Which least intrusive stability shoe do you guys think is best? Hoka Arahi 5, Asics Gel Kayano Lite, Mizuno Horizon 5? If you have any other suggestions please advise. Thanks!
@@melindareiner9908 I know! I thought Brooks Ghost was the highest at 12 mm. I think ASICS should reconsider putting a 13 mm drop on the shoes. The highest I like is 10. 6-8 mm is my sweet spot.
i've run in both. The kayano has more traditional heel counter, the cushion is dense, its not super soft but I'm a big dude and i'm not bottoming it out, the support is subtle. Over all i like it better than the vongo.
