* {{H:WhyBuy}}. The Kinvara will appeal to runners looking for something that's quite close to a traditional running shoe rather than a true minimalist shoe. I'd recommend considering the [[Hoka Clifton]], [[Altra One2| Altra One<sup>2</sup>]], or [[Saucony Virrata]] as better shoes, but they are also further from the traditional design.
* {{H:cushioning}}. The Kinvara is softly cushioned and comfortable, though it's not as soft as a [[Minimax]] shoe like the [[Hoka Clifton]].
* {{H:drop}}. The Kinvara has 6mm of drop, which is a little more than I'd like (I find 4mm is generally okay). However, this can form a useful transition step to a zero drop shoe.
