HIGHLY REACTIVE AMORTIZATION
For the foam, we teamed up with Arkema, a leading French chemist in the running market. The result is VFOAM foam in Pebax® material, 20% more dynamic than conventional shoes. Arkema's Pebax® foam, combined with the geometry of the sole, offers highly responsive cushioning.
SOLE GEOMETRY FOR MAXIMUM ENERGY
The donut-inspired heel geometry optimizes the deformation of the material to give maximum energy to every stride. The sole exploits all the shoe's qualities: a forefoot geometry maximizing the expression of reactive Pebax® foam and a heel geometry with an intuitive shape placed in the only place where cushioning is required.
LIGHTNESS
Research and development studies have shown that a lighter product improves running performance through better energy conservation. To design the KD900, no compromises were made on comfort and durability, but lighter components and an optimized sole design were chosen. The result: a weight of 218 g in size 42.
EXCELLENT ROADHOLDING ON WET ROADS AND WHEN CORNERING
Our sole has been designed like a car tire for efficient running without loss of control, even when it's raining. The geometry of the sole combined with the choice of rubber gives the KIPRUN KD900 excellent grip on wet surfaces and in bends, even at top speed.
DROP
The drop of the KD900 is 8mm.
A TEAM OF ENTHUSIASTS TO OFFER YOU A UNIQUE RUNNING EXPERIENCE
The Kiprun KD900 is the fruit of more than 10 years of footwear expertise at Décathlon. Caroline (product manager), Stéphane (product engineer) and Nicolas (designer), all passionate about running, develop your Kiprun shoes thanks to a network of ambassadors: running enthusiasts at Decathlon, sports coaches and you! We choose the components, create the prototypes, test and validate the products in the laboratory and in practice.
