K-Swiss Keahou Quote | Reply
Hi Guys

I am looking for a new pair of shoes and I am interested in the K-Swiss Keahou. They look like a reasonably well built cushioned shoe (not overly cushioned) but I am guessing about an equivalent to Nike Pegasus or an Asics Cumulus? Does anyone have any feedback on these shoes, their comfort, durability/wear patterns etc or any issues / concerns.

Thanks

I trained for my last IM in a pair. Nice cushioned ride, very durable. Great shoe at a very reasonable price. I will probably pick up another pair very soon.

Order a half size down, I found the fit to be on the larger side.

Have a pair and love them.

I second the post that K-Swiss appears to run large. My company had an employee purchase program of 60% off and all three pairs (different models) ran about 1/2 size large.

That's interesting what you say about sizings as I bought a pair of K-Swiss Tubes and I thought that they were small (compared to Nikes that is).

Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated

I've used them and think they're a great shoe but would never pay $100 for them. I've only picked them up for 50%+ off.

If you're going to spend $100, go to Runnersworld.com and do the "Shoes Like Mine" feature. It'll give you better shoe options.
