Main Material

When you run, each impact with the ground generates a shockwave equivalent to three times your weight. The impact runs from the heel to the top of your spine. These shock waves are extremely hard on your joints. A good pair of running shoes is key for absorbing shocks and dispersing vibrations.

What makes the Run Cushion shoe ideal for jogging?

To continue running, your joints, back, and knees must be properly protected from shocks and vibrations. Run Cushion shoes limit the impact of these repeated shock waves from your very first runs.

Why do running shoes need cushioning?

For optimum comfort, choose one size larger than what you usually wear. Be sure there is 1 cm between your toe and the tip of the shoe to account for normal swelling during your runs.

How to choose the right size running shoe

What sizes are available?

How much does the Run Cushion running shoe weigh?

Drop is the difference between the height of the shoe’s heel and forefoot. 

What is the drop of a shoe?

There is a 6-mm height difference between the front and back of the sole. 

What is the drop on a Run Cushion running shoe?

Avoid machine washing your shoes to prevent damage to their technological and material properties; they may become unstuck or shrink, and the upper fabric may tear. 
To clean dirt or mud, wash with soapy water and a synthetic brush. Do not use bleach! Rinse with fresh water.
Avoid putting shoes near a heat source to dry.

How do I care for my Run Cushion running shoes?

Running helps you: 
1. enjoy the outdoors 
2. look after your body 
3. build muscle gradually 
4. maintain or lose weight 
5. improve bone health

What are the benefits of running?

Shoes

The shoe has top-level comfort for running beginners.

Comfortable and lightweight, these shoes are designed for running up to 10 km per week.

Weight

Sizes

The height difference between the back and front of the sole is 10 mm.

Flexible, lightweight EVA foam absorbs shock waves.

Heel to toe drop

Plenty of flex grooves for easier foot motion. 

Flexibility

Perfect grip on wet ground (sole geometry and texture).

Designed to give you a more natural stride and a new feel when running.

Practice Conditions

To help you achieve a natural stride, the KN 500 Running Shoes offer:
– a reduced 4 mm drop – 
increased flexibility thanks to their flex grooves
 – a very light weight (197 g in size 5.5)
 – a thin heel
A natural stride is the stride we adopt when we run barefoot, striking the floor with the forefoot or middle of the foot (midfoot).

Natural stride

The drop is the height difference between the front and back of the shoe. It is very important for a runner’s stride, but exactly how drop influences a runner’s performance or risk of injury is uncertain. Drop does have a direct impact on muscles and tendons: a low drop causes calves and Achilles tendons to be more stretched. That’s why any changes to drop must be made gradually.

What is the influence of the drop?

The transition to a natural stride has to be progressive to avoid any risk of injury. It is essential to get your muscles used to running with a low drop (and low cushioning) gradually. You can reduce the drop gradually, or divide your workouts into two parts by doing a warm-up with your low-drop shoes and a regular session with your normal shoes.

How to safely transition from a high drop to a low drop

The KN 500 Running Shoes slip on to provide maximum flexibility. The elastic component of the upper allows the shoe to mould to your foot.

Slip on construction

Durable cushioning up to 1000 km (Kalensole foam) and shock absorption (CS).

mesh upper, slipper-type construction, thick tongue.

User comfort

TPU reinforcements at the heel and forefoot.

Suitable for all stride types thanks to denser foam under the first metatarsal.

Anatomic design

These shoes are designed to give your feet absolute comfort when running (3 times/week, up to an hour).

When you run, each impact with the ground generates a shockwave equivalent to three times your weight. This wave runs from the heel to the top of the spine. Shockwaves from running can be hard on your joints. The Run Comfort running shoe was designed to protect you from shocks and impacts.

What makes Run Comfort shoes ideal for running?

The cushioning in Run Comfort running shoes is provided by a sole made of exclusive flexible and soft EVA foam that we have dubbed Kalensole, along with the “Circular System” technology: an air hole in the foam at the heel enables more effective and uniform dispersion of the shockwave.

What guarantees the cushioning in Run Comfort running shoes?

When you run, your foot must be supported for a number of reasons: preventing friction, irritation, and blisters.

Why is it important to have good support?

For optimum comfort, choose one size larger than what you usually wear. Be sure to have 1 cm between your toe and the tip to accommodate for normal swelling during your runs.

How to choose the right sized running shoe

‘Drop’ is the difference between the height of the shoe’s heel and forefoot.There is a 10 mm height difference between the front and back of the sole.

What is the trop on a Run Comfort running shoe?

Condition

We improved the Kiprun Long 2 based on your feedback: 
- Improved forefoot for more comfort in the arch
- New rubber on the outer sole to improve grip by more than 37%

New Features of the Kiprun Long 2

To give you optimal comfort and performance when running, we focused on the sole, which features 2 technologies:

- K-Ring: a ring located in the heel to improve cushioning and protect the joints, back, knees, etc. 
- Kalensole: improves cushioning by 34% and propulsion by 25% (compared with standard foam) and lasts up to 1,000 km.

The importance of cushioning

A stable shoe that facilitates the roll-through of the foot and reduces the effort needed to control the foot and heel for a more relaxed foot motion.
We increased the surface supporting the foot, added TPU resin (Arkstab technology) in the middle of the foot, and added reinforcement behind the heel.

What about stability?

Foot comfort is paramount for running regularly over long distances.
So, we’ve improved the level of 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 reworked forefoot area for more comfort.
- a seamless, single piece of fabric to reduce friction.

The Comfort of the KS500 Kiprun

With the exclusive K-Only technology and denser foam located under the first metatarsal, you no longer need to know your stride type: overpronator, underpronator or neutral!
A six-month study conducted with the Luxembourg Institute of Health* showed that the K-Only concept suits all strides.
The key figures of the study:
- 372 runners
- over 12,558 training sessions
- 12,094 hours of running
- 116,723 km covered

Adapted to all stride types

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

What are the cushioning features of the run active grip shoe?

Grip is an important feature for running on trails and paths. So it is important to choose a shoe with a lugged outsole that provides superior grip.

Why is grip so important on trails?

Choose one size bigger than your usual size to ensure optimum comfort in your run cushion grip shoes. There should be 1 cm (2/5") between your toe and the end of your shoe, as your feet swell during exercise.

How much does a run active grip shoe weigh?

Drop is the difference between the height of the shoe’s heel and forefoot. There is a 10 mm (2/5") height difference between the front and back of the sole.

What is the drop of a run active grip shoe?

Do not machine wash your shoes as this can damage their physical properties, leading to detachment, shrinkage or tearing of the mesh at the top of the foot. 
We therefore recommend that, when they are very dirty (muddy), you wash them with soapy water and a synthetic brush. Do not use bleach! Rinse with fresh water.
Avoid putting shoes near a heat source to dry.

For many years, researchers from around the world
have been studying shoe cushioning without knowing whether there was actually a link between shoes' mechanical cushioning properties, and injuries.
In 2018, Decathlon decided to conduct a study with
848 participants and 27,761 running sessions, in partnership
with the LIH (Luxembourg Institute of Health).

It was one of the largest studies in the world.

Confirming the link between cushioning and injuries.In this study, two cushioning 
conditions were tested: A flexible shoe (61 N/mm) against a 
stiff shoe (95 N/mm). The result of this study 
speaks for itself: 25% fewer runners injured with the flexible shoe.
Based on this study, the Flow series’ flexible cushioning was created, focusing on the preference index of soft cushioning.

What was the purpose of the study?

Drop is the difference between the height of the shoe’s heel and forefoot. Unlike the 10 mm (2/5") drop on many running shoes, Kalenji has decided to use a drop of 4 mm (1/5") on its Jogflow 500.1.The goal To encourage runners to strike the ground with the forefoot for a more natural stride and a reduced risk of injury.

What is the drop of these shoes?

Very lightweight shoes: 160 g (5 2/3 oz.) in size 5.5

Shoes that offer the comfort you need to start running

We designed this running shoe for men and women looking to run once or twice a week for up to 30 minutes.

There is a 10 mm (2/5") height difference between the front of the sole and the back.
