Ekiden are designed for runners who are over-pronated, which means that the foot falls to the inside. And it is also called overpronation or flat feet.
In this case, repulsion during running occurs with the final take-off of the thumb. Provide optimal cushioning and maximum support for this type of pronation, reducing the likelihood of foot injury.
Let's start at the top of the shoe. The base of the upper is mesh. It is designed using a special technology that makes it very elastic and allows it to adapt to the shape of the foot. And of course, this mesh is breathable.
If you run at dusk along the highway, then reflective pads will help you feel more confident.
Lacing requires separate consideration. Here, a system of independent loops is implemented that distribute the pressure of the laces, ensuring a snug fit of the upper.
The back has a rigid design. This allows you to securely lock the heel. And soft memory foam padding on the inside provides extra comfort.
Inside there is a soft insole with antibacterial properties to protect against odors.
Now let's move on to the sole. The updated material provides excellent cushioning and a springy effect that translates shock into repulsive force.
On the lateral side of the sole, there are silicone-based gel inserts. It also provides effective cushioning, reducing stress on the heel and toe.
This model has a support system. She is responsible for stabilizing the foot. A vertical groove in the outsole divides it in two. By creating an optimal load distribution in all phases of contact with the surface.
Together with this groove, a cast element interacts, which is located in the middle of the sole. It prevents the foot from twisting on uneven surfaces.
Critical areas are reinforced with wear-resistant rubber to protect against abrasion.
Consider Ekiden prime.
- The back of the upper is made of nylon mesh.
- The lacing on this model is presented in a traditional symmetrical way.
- The heel counter is reinforced with a plastic insert for fixing the heel.
- The interior of the Ekiden prime is trimmed with mesh textiles with soft padding at the collar.
- The insole is made of foam and covered with textiles.
- The outsole is made of rubber and does not have an intermediate layer, which gives the athlete a better feel of the surface.
Kiprun is one of the softest and most comfortable models to date.
- A very soft, two-layer, breathable upper provides ample ventilation for the foot.
- A thin synthetic overlay is applied to the heel counter.
- Padding runs along the collar for comfort around the ankle.
- Kiprun is really very soft to walk and run. Consider how the manufacturer achieved this level of comfort. The anatomical insole and midsole are made of foam that absorbs a significant portion of the load.
- The tread on this model has an embossed pattern for good traction.
- Special grooves in the forefoot allow the shoe to flex well.
Womens
Kiprun sd is an interesting trainer model. The upper is based on the famous line of football boots. It uses synthetics with a branded texture, which is decorated with logos.
What is the main material? It is a very thin synthetic material consisting of a technological mesh and a polyurethane surface. The material is really very strong and flexible. It fits the foot comfortably and responds to all its movements, and also has a minimum weight, which can also be attributed to the advantages of this model.
- The laces on the sneakers have a standard position.
- In the heel area, the lining is made of a mesh fabric that promotes air circulation. And the collar is padded with soft material for comfort.
- The midsole is made of a hybrid material composed of foam and rubber. This combination allows you to achieve the necessary balance of flexibility, strength and weight.
- The key point that allows the foot to move as freely as possible are the so-called grooves. They are distributed over the entire sole area.
- The friction zones are reinforced with carbon rubber for added strength.
Now consider the Ekiden active trail model.
The front of the upper consists of several layers:
- base layer made of mesh, durable material;
- surface layer made of polyurethane with small ventilation holes.
- And also a rubberized texture is applied to the synthetic layer. This combination of materials makes the upper very soft, flexible and durable enough.
- The back of this model is made of breathable elastic textile so that the foot does not overheat.
- The textile tongue is split on the inside of the foot. This design solution ensures a snug fit of the foot in the shoe.
- To fix the heel, the heel counter is reinforced with a plastic insert.
- The collar is padded for comfort.
