As K Swiss is no longer making the blade light that I like to wear… I love the shoe and wondering if anyone else who also likes it has found another similar shoe with the same run characteristics?
Thanks

which one are they discontinuing? I love the Kwicky Blade light N
they are only making the kwicky blades from now on. i was not a huge fan though. THey did not seem to work as well as the blade lights for me.
Saucony Kinvara, Brooks Pureflow, or the new Mizuno Hitogami. The Kinvara and Hitogami are a touch lighter than the Blade Light, but all are great options.
What size are you looking for? I will see if we still have any in our store.
I was in the same boat as you, but I am increasing my mileage anyway and was considering something with more cushion to prevent some nagging injuries I get year after year. Went to the local running store and they recommended the Addidas Energy Boost, they blew my mind. I have never been that impressed with first impression of a running shoe. I am not really in tune to all the technical aspects of running shoes (don’t know much about drop and weight and all that stuff) so I can’t say if they are in any way similar to the Blade Lights, but they were more comfortable for me and I grabbed a pair. That said I haven’t had my first run in them yet, I just got them this week and trying to squeeze the last few miles out of the K-Swiss before retiring them.
Moral of the story: go to the local running store and try stuff on, you might find something you like better and support local business in the process.
