DURABLE AND LIGHTNESS FOR PERFORMANCE

We focused on the durability of KD900X. They have been tested for 1000km mileage by runners, and even up to 1500km by one of them! Numerous studies have also shown that a lighter shoe improves racing performance through better energy conservation. Therefore when designing KD900X, we chose lighter components and worked on an optimized sole design.

CO-CREATION WITH EXPERTS

To achieve such a feat, we worked closely with both internal and external partners. We developed our own carbon plate, and the Pebax® VFOAM foam with external partner Arkema, a renowned company leading in the development of innovative materials.
