Women’s Running Shoes Kiprun KS 500

Our design teams developed these stable and comfortable women’s running shoes with good cushioning for your training runs and races up to marathon distance.Looking for cushioning and stability? Thanks to the Kalensole foam, these women’s running shoes offer optimal cushioning and stability for your running outings.

DROP 8 MM

The height difference between the back and front of the sole is 8 mm.

THE IMPORTANCE OF THE CUSHIONING

To give you optimal comfort and performance when running, we concentrated our attention on the sole which features 2 concepts:

– K-Ring: a ring located in the heel to improve cushioning at the rear and spread the shockwave in order to provide effective protection for the body: joints, back, knees, etc.
– Kalensole: improves cushioning by 34% and propulsion by 25% compared with standard foam and lasts up to 1,000 km.

DID YOU SAY STABLE?

A stable shoe that facilitates the roll-through of the foot and reduces the effort needed to control the foot and the heel for a more relaxed foot motion. As a result, we have increased the contact area of the foot and added the ARKSTAB technology, i.e. a piece of TPU resin at the midfoot area.

THE COMFORT OF THE KS500

In order to run regularly over long distances, foot comfort is of the utmost importance.
We have sought to improve this comfort with:
– a new collar at the back of the shoe ensuring excellent heel support and ideal softness.
– a preformed sole made of open-cell PU (polyurethane) foam.
– a revised forefoot area
– a seamless, single piece of fabric to reduce friction.

EXCELLENT ROAD-HOLDING ABILITY ON WET ROADS AND BENDS

Our sole is designed like a car tyre for running performance without losing control in wet conditions.
The sole geometry combined with a new rubber component give the KIPRUN KS500 excellent grip on wet terrain, even at top speed.

WHAT’S NEW ABOUT THE KIPRUN KS500?

Thanks to your reviews over the last 2 years, we have completely revised the sole of the KS500 in order to make the shoe more comfortable and create a smoother foot motion.
We’ve also worked on the breathability of the KS500 upper thanks to a more breathable tongue. The half-sock construction also offers comfort and holds the foot in place in the shoe.
