Saucony Ladies ProGrid Kinvara 2 Shoes

The Kinvara hit the UK by storm last year with its amazing lightweight blend of cushioning and flexibility. In the update, we've not changed the outsole and midsole combination at all, so the Kinvara 2 is a small step into the future, with the same minimally constructed, lightweight responsive frame. The change comes in the upper so that the new version fits like a glove and allows the foot to move through the gait cycle totally uninhibited.

The Kinvara 2 still provides as much cushioning as their famous ProGrid Triumph, but this shoe is 100g lighter! By using Heel ProGrid Lite for cushioning, the EVA Plus midsole provides as much shock absorption as standard ProGrid but is 20% thinner! Whilst the Kinvara 2 has the looks and weight of a racing shoe, it's very much a training shoe for the neutral runner to use on a daily basis. Energy is returned using a "piston" effect through the triangular lugs of the outsole giving an amazingly cushioned ride for such a lightweight shoe. The monomesh upper is as minimalist as possible and in combination with the reduced mass of the midsole, brings barefoot running to the masses.
