08.07.26 // Mark your calendars. The new ASICS GEL-Kayano 33 drops soon. 🗓️
We’ve broken down exactly what makes this upcoming version the smoothest, most adaptive luxury cruiser yet:
The Upper: Engineered to wrap the foot like a second skin, the premium, stretchy knit adapts effortlessly to your foot’s shape while amping up breathability. Finished with an extra-plush collar and a new heel pull tab, it delivers a locked-in, distraction-free fit from step-one to double-digit mileage.
The Midsole: Say goodbye to stiff, mechanical medial posts. A premium dual-layer setup packs responsive FF BLAST™ MAX on top for a trampoline-like pop, and dependable FF BLAST™ PLUS below—all anchored by the all-new FLUIDSUPPORT™ technology and a plush PureGEL™ heel to smoothly check overpronation without ever feeling blocky. 
The Outsole: Relentless durability meets natural flex. By pairing high-coverage HYBRID ASICSGRIP™ with a strategic longitudinal rubber strip down the instep, it fluidly guides your foot forward while giving you maximum traction on wet or dry roads. 
Maximum support. Zero stiffness. It’s time to experience the difference.
🔥 Launching in-store and online on July 8th. Stay tuned to lock in your pair.

Spun by robots. Built for the long haul. 🕸️⚡️
The On Cloudmonster 3 Hyper LightSpray just dropped in the stealthy Black & Apollo colorway.
By replacing traditional uppers with a single, continuous laceless filament, On has stripped away the weight and completely maxed out the responsiveness. Paired with a dual-layer Helion™ HF hyper foam setup and zero Speedboard®, it delivers an ultra-smooth, high-energy transition that thrives on tempo efforts and long training blocks.
The look is pure stealth. The performance is pure energy return.

Due 1.7.26 ASICS New Zealand Gel-Kayano 33

Tom’s first thoughts are live on the website -

Ultimately, the ASICS GEL-Kayano 33 successfully pushes the line away from the stiff, clunky stability shoes of yesteryear. If you want a highly durable, protective daily trainer for logging miles with some added support, it is a stellar premium option. However, severe overpronators who deeply rely on aggressive arch support may find the passive guidance system too floaty, and it may not work as well as the previous model; time will tell.

Puma Fast-R Nitro Elite 3

We’ve just unboxed the two newest looks, and they are absolute 🔥

Light Lavender / Ultra Red: Premium, clean, and modern. A soft lavender mesh up front contrasted sharply by an explosive red heel pod.

The “Showtime” World Cup Edition: Loud, fearless, and impossible to ignore. Leaning into Puma’s iconic tournament heritage with a bold, mismatched Poison Pink, Sun Stream orange, and Bright Aqua colorway built for the biggest stage in the world.

The name Cadí comes from the Serra del Cadí, an iconic rocky mountain range in the Pyrenees where Kilian Jornet was born, grew up, and discovered his passion for the mountains. It’s a place that symbolises accessible nature and the coexistence of people of all levels in the outdoors. 🏔️✨
That exact spirit defines NNormal’s latest shoe. Conceived as the ultimate gateway to trail running, the Cadí is designed for those who want to explore the trails and mountains without compromising on comfort and security. It delivers that signature NNormal durability and high-performance grip, but with a plush, confidence-inspiring ride that makes off-road running accessible to everyone.
Whether you’re stepping onto the dirt for the first time or looking for a reliable, cushioned daily trainer for the local hills, this is your invitation to get out there.

Happy Global Running Day from the FRC team!

We love the running community almost as much as we love shoes! Get out there and log some miles (if you haven’t already) to celebrate the sport that keeps us asking ‘Why do I do this to myself?’

Evolution, not revolution. 🛠️
Brooks didn’t try to reinvent the wheel with the Ghost 18, but the midfoot geometry and material updates make a massive difference.
The shift to DNA LOFT v3 injected foam gives it a more dynamic, responsive toe-off while keeping the traditional 10mm drop intact. Pair that with a redesigned triple jacquard engineered mesh upper and a plush flat-knit tongue, and it’s arguably the most secure, breathable lockdown in the daily trainer category right now. 🏃‍♂️📈
Check out the full reel for our breakdown on how the midfoot transitions feel and who this shoe is actually for.
All this and more on this week’s episode. Link in bio to listen now! 🎙️👇

Brooks’ long-standing daily staple returns for the 18th edition.

It’s a subtle and deliberate update, maintaining the soft yet stable midsole and adding a softer upper and more durabe outsole.
