Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Comfortable feel that holds up over long days.
  • Generous cushioning makes easy and long runs feel protected.
  • Well-rounded neutral daily trainer for most everyday mileage.

Cons

  • Likely wears out sooner than similarly cushioned daily trainers.
  • Already superseded by the newer Kayano 33.
  • Runner feedback is still thin, so impressions may shift.
