r/AskRunningShoeGeeksSpeed shoes for overpronators: recommendations?
11 months ago

I also came from Kayanos - 27, 28 and 30. I asked this same question when looking to build my first shoe rotation. Saucony tempus has been great, will definitely get the 2 at some point. I appreciate the stability when really working hard. But also consider relatively stable neutral shoes. I also have the Asics Novablast 4 and Saucony Endorphin Speed 4 and they've been fine. I also tried on the New Balance rebel v4 but found the softer foam felt unstable. So yeah - Tempus, but also consider some neutral shoes. Remember, pronation is natural and is only a problem if you feel discomfort after running.

I loved the old Kayanos when I got the 28s? Now they kill my feet and shins

Sometimes I prefer my trusty worn in ones (nimbus and kayanos) over using new pairs (still sitting fresh)

New shoes feel different than older gels (oven been on them since 90s) but kayanos are more stability especially laterally. I like them for gym based activities though also for outdoors with uneven pavement . Nimbus was similar but more cushion while Novablast very cushion oriented

I have the same condition, and the Hurricane was less intrusive on the arch for my overpronation compared to other stability shoes. In contrast, The Kayanos absolutely dig into my arch

Been wearing Kayanos since the 28th series up to 31. Switched up to Novablast 5, after 100k or so outside of my left knee started flaring up everytime I ran more than 2k.

Also an Asics fan. I alternate between the GT-2000 and the Gel-Keyano. I wear narrows, so I am limited to certain models.

r/Marathon_TrainingDo I really need two pairs of shoes for marathon training?

Most of my runs are boring. So I use thick shoes for safety.  I do have a Boston 12 for my faster running. It is more fun to use! But I only use them like once a week. The rest of the runs are on boring shoes (kayano, 1080)

If you want stability the gel kayano or hurricane are probably safe bets.

I wear Asic Gel Kayanos or Nike Pegasus to the gym but they’re more for running. It’s hard for me because I do cardio + strength. I would ideally prefer a thinner flatter shoe for lifting but I prefer to keep my feet comfortable for the running segment
