My verdicts
Decathlon
Kiprun JogFlow 190.1
For a beginner running slowly at 7 to 10 min/km and building up to a half marathon, this is a soft, stable shoe worth considering. I rate it 6 at the ₹2,500 I paid, and 7 if you get it for ₹2,000.
Avoid if: Avoid it if you want to run at 4 to 5 min/km or you overpronate.
