My verdicts

Asian

Hypercushion 06

Please do not buy the Hypercushion 06 for running. The midsole is a cheap, dead foam that does not protect you from impact, so use it only for walking or casual wear.

Avoid if: Avoid it if you want to start running seriously, or if you weigh over 85 kg.

Sega

Rewell

For ₹1,500, no one makes a more durable, walking-friendly and beginner-friendly shoe. It is a 10/10 for office goers, walkers and all-day standing, and an 8/10 for beginner runners, held back by a tight, hot upper.

Avoid if: Avoid it if you need a roomy, breathable toe box, unless you size up.
