I’m looking for a nice shoe to replace my current Asics Gel -Keyano 27s. I basically wear these shoes for everything from long walks to yard work. They served me well, but it’s time for a new pair as these are worn out.

Any recommendations? I was looking at allbirds, but not sure I can make the jump.

Thanks!

    If you like the Asics Gel-Keyanos 27, you could always get newer versions of the shoe - so that would be the 28 or 29; they should be cheaper/discounted since the Asics Gel-Keyanos 30 are just around the corner. From what I’ve seen (and experienced with the Gel-Nimbus), Asics is modernizing their shoe designs this year so you could make a judgement call as to whether the new 30 are for you or if you want to stock up on the older pairs.

    If you’re partial towards the Asics fit (I am), I also liked the Asics GT-2000. The Brooks Adrenaline GTS are also a popular stability shoe, but I found it too heavy for myself insofar as a daily running shoe.

      Yeah, the 29 is on sale. I’ll check the other options you suggested here. Thanks.
