Roshe Runs have become very popular Nike shoes, whether one wears them for the gym or as a simple fashion statement. And like most people, I fell in love with them. I have wanted them for about a year now, if not a bit longer, and for whatever reason I just never got around to buying them myself (I think I secretly always wished someone would buy them for me lol). On Black Friday, I went with my boyfriend's family to the mall and we were in Macy's when, for the second time ever, I saw these Roshe Run updated look alikes and I decided to try them on, since Macy's Finishline no longer carries Roshes for whatever reason. So I try on some red size 6 boy's Kaishi Runs. And I loved the fit, they looked super cute and now I am trying to decide if I want these or wish to pursue my dream of owning Roshe Runs. I ask the guy helping me and he alerts me that there are no more big sizes in the Black color in the Kaishis so I walk empty handed and come up with a brilliant plan. I had previously found a coupon for Finishline at a great percentage, so I decide I was simply going to order both because while they looked similar, they were still different and would each hold their own purpose. I ordered the Kaishis from Macy's, because they only sell them at Macy's Finishline and then ordered the Roshes at a discount from Finishline. Now fast forward about a week and I get my Kaishis first and I wore them as soon as possible, I LOVED them, I was so happy with my purchase, They were so cute and comfortable and added that simple sporty vibe without overdoing it. A few days later I receive my Roshes and I am so ECSTATIC. After wanting them for so long at last I had them. I put them on and... I didn't like them. Now after wearing the Kaishis, the Roshes were now being compared. The Roshe Runs were bigger, they were looser around the foot and the sole was just big and there. They were a completely different feel than the Kaishi Runs and personally I loved the much more snug and petite look they had, they had more shape and hold. Luckily my mom wanted a pair of Roshe Runs, or something similar, so I simply passed them on to her.
So for those of you wondering whether you should buy a pair of Roshe Runs, hopefully my description and comparison will help you decide. Because while they are cute and comfortable, they have a much looser feeling and not any real definition. I personally truly stand by the Kaishi Runs now and their much more snug, defined and petite shape. I will be wearing these as more of an everyday shoe but I believe I will be buying a different color and using that pair as a workout shoe, but we will see.
Here are just a few pictures of the shoes both on my feet as well as a 360 comparison side by side.



I hope you guys enjoyed.
Love,
