Shoe Review: Saucony Kinvara 2

One of the shoe brands making a big comeback in the local scene is Saucony, and I was very lucky to have won a pair during its intimate launch.  The first pair that caught my eye was the Kinvara 2, and the rest was history.  Here are my personal accounts about this lightweight minimalist trainer.
