Yes.
kinvara, pureflow, wave precision. try them and see.
i have the first version and i like them a lot. i've run over 800 miles in them and although they are horrendously beaten up i keep wearing them for some reason. they're pretty light and comfortable. at first they made me sore because of their lack of cushioning, but now i wish they had a little less. their only problem has been durability. the thin outer lining ripper after under 200 miles, but it didn't really serve any purpose anyway since water goes right through in the first place (their other flaw... better if it's pouring because they don't get as heavy as other shoes, but if it's just a little damp then your feet get wet easily). this issue could have been fixed in the second version, i don't know. given my shoes' current pitiful state i will probably buy the second version soon. on another note, for comparison, i run less mileage than you, generally around 45-50/week.
are they vizipro orange? try the faas three hundred if ur a winner
No. Too soft. Neuroma and runner's knee.
I love em.
I love both my pairs of Kinvara 2's they fixed the quick ripping in the uppers and I have over 1000 miles on both my pairs and I'm still using them for morning am runs BUT.
I got a pair of faas 300's to see what the hype was about and honestly they are a great pair of trainers for people looking for a miniamlist approach but still some protection. I certainly recommend checking them out.
i like em more than the minimus.
Too soft. Sucks for running fast
love the kinvara for quicker stuff and I supplement that with the suacony mirage for everything else.
Too Soft!!!!
Get the saucony grid flex! By far the best running shoe ive ever had!
I just got them 2 weeks ago and i love them. I do my speedwork in them for cause they're light. I wanted to get another pair of asics skyspeeds but kinvara 2s are like 60 dollars. Skyspeed is still the better shoe but i was cheap.
I average about the same. They work great for roads and other hard surfaces but for trails especially rocky trails they can be a pain because they are almost too soft. They also lack in traction. Roads they are good. I don't recommend doing more than 500-600 miles in these shoes they are done after that
