K-Swiss got it right; you might think K-Swiss is just a good tennis shoe and also just good enough to wear to the family cookout but let me tell you I am a heavier build male and I am training to run a Half marathon I have been training with New Balance's and I was happy with them until my flat foot started to act up which led me to do some research on a new running shoe that would give the me comfort, flexibility, and stability and thanks to K-Swiss I found it. I will let you know how I did but for the time being if you are looking for a great shoe stop and get yourself a pair because this is the real deal.
Brands I'd also recommend: Nike stability socks and Skully caps.

Great shoe. One of the lightest shoes I've ever worn. Very comfortable, plenty of cush and seamless works for me very well.

The Kwicky's were recommended to me by a friend that is a hard core runner. He said that they were the best shoes that he's felt in quite some time. He's right. They are light, well cushioned, water resistant, and the fit/comfort is remarkable. I couldn't go back to my Nike and Saucony shoes after wearing these!

I bought these for my husband after I purchased the same pair in women's style. The women's version of this shoe is the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn. My husband said the same thing about this pair. Right from the start...lightweight, and almost feels like you are going barefoot. Awesome look and comfort!

I am hooked! I am not the typical runner build (190lbs); however, have raced everything from marathons, ironmans, and 5Ks (competitively). I have used a large amount of different shoes, went through half dozen newtons and developed Achilles tendinitis, used Brooks and Saucony with stability systems and they feel like bricks on my feet. Used five fingers for shorter runs, not bad but get blisters. Used racing flats and they feel okay for short distance but then it starts to hurt. I am grateful I found these as they feel light as racing flats but have the cushion of and a little support. Only gripe is that they are perforated on the bottom so when you step in a puddle you are wet. On the other hand during races when I dump water on myself my shoes don't get heavy! A little pricey but give 'em a shot - you will be happy you did!
