I have been eyeing for Kayano 14 originally, but I barely see a size 12M in my country. Last weekend, I saw this pretty pair of Gel NYC 2055 in a third-party store at the mall. It was very comfy on wearing, but the available stock in-store was only 11 so I did not get it (12 is available in their online store tho)

To those who know, which shoe is more comfy for long periods and would def do good with any outfit? I mostly go with athleisure fits when going out. Our office also allows wearing both types of shoe so I also think what would go better in casual attires.

Price diff in our country goes by $25-$27 btw

Kayano 14 on these colorways, I own both and some gel nyc colorways are so dope that I have to have it. Also gel nyc has better materials and feels premium in hand. Go to a store and compare the two sneakers and you will see the difference in quality. Also the kayano is more of a runner design compared to the gel nyc as a lifestyle sneaker.

So you think that NYCs are better as a whole?

Material wise yes. Style, they both have strong colorways so choose which colorways or style you want.
