ASICS Gel Kayano 27 ($139) , Gel Nimbus 22 ($129) Running Shoes ~36% off

FYI- those are almost 2 models old now and the gel is starting to expire on them.

Also the 27's have a weird cut for your foot try it before you buy it.

The gel expires?!

Also does anyone know why it’s so hard to find 2E widths? I can only find black 2Es and I was hoping to get a different colour. Asics’ US site has various colours for 2E but not Canada.

ASICS should hire Buckleys marketing team.

ASICS look awful BUT work the best

I have severe flat feet and used several series before deciding on one.
My notes:
Kayano series = very stiff and stable, not exactly the most cushiony, on the heavy side
hoka arahi series = more cushiony, lighter side, looks better (my current choice), good enough stability
brooks adrenaline gts = middle cushion between arahi and kayano, great stability.

all comes to the same price point in runningfree.com(20% off) vs this deal.

Personally I pick the hoka/brooks over kayano, but as with all of these, it's YMMV and hope this helps.

they don't look awful, it's just the colours they use, some are really crazy

I tried both of these on a couple of days ago. The Kayano is much narrower in the midfoot and somewhat narrower in the forefoot. I always wear medium 'D' shoes but with these I would need 2E.

The $30 bonus card offer ends today. There's no minimum purchase with it, so you can get $30 off $30+.

Brooks Adrenaline Gts 21 is also on sale here - $103.

if you order online, do they email you the code?

I don't know. Presumably it would be included with the receipt that is sent to the registered email address of the person who makes a purchase.

From what I recall though the bonus card from online purchases can only be used on their website.

Can't take a shoe store that doesn't offer different widths seriously.

How is this one?

fyi for me the nimbus 22 was the worst shoe i’ve had. wasn’t as soft and the arch was weird. the 21 and 23 were far superior

Damn, I never knew the gel expires. wtf

If you are going with ASICS , then only get the gt2000 series for stability shoes. I walk about 15km/day . Gt2000’s were the best from ASICS . I’ve since moved onto new balance 880’s. since ASICS warranty claim process was a big let down .
