What did they said about ASICS Men’s GEL-Kayano 17 Running Shoe
#1
The Kayano 17 from ASICS is the best running shoe I currently own.
You guessed it. The Kayano 17 from ASICS is the best running shoe I currently own. And I currently own too many pairs of running shoes. The New Balance 1906 , 1226 and the 993. I also own the ASICS GT 1260 and the Nike Vomero 5 and the Equalon 4. I have the Brooks Beast and the Trance 10. Afraid to buy Saucony because of the lack of a wide width (2E) option. I have not been an ASICSs fan before. In fact I sent back a pair of ASICS Kinetics because the hell strike was stiff. I had declared the Brooks Trance 10 my favorite of all time but I gave ASICS one more try and I feel fortunate the Kayano 17 was my reward. There is no question in my mind that every time I put on these shoes I want to work out and run. I have been finding many excuses to wear them.

Kayano 17 edges out Nimbus 12 – stability and heel cushioning decide
I purchased and compared Kayano 17 to the Nimbus 12 for use primarily as walking/hiking shoes. Both feel great on my feet, but the Kayano 17′s have a slight edge in stability as well as having a bit more heel cushioning – I did a simple heel walk and heel bounce test. Toe padding seems about equal. For this I did toe bounces for 30 seconds with each pair. Overall I’d say I notice the Kayano’s on my feet more, whereas the Nimbus feel, well, more nimble, more like a ‘pillow’ as another review said of the Nimbus. Make no mistake; the Kayano’s are super comfortable. Different shoes for different people, essentially. I don’t know the actual weight difference between these, but holding them I’d say very little; it’s more the perception while wearing them that the Nimbus’s are lighter, even though they probably aren’t, or aren’t by much.
