In an exciting new release, KIPRUN introduces the Cushion 500, a running shoe meticulously designed to support runners of all levels. Whether you’re lacing up for a casual morning jog or building mileage for your next race, this shoe promises to deliver an unmatched combination of comfort, responsiveness, and value.
Built for Every Runner
Positioned within KIPRUN’s “Every Day Run” range, the Cushion 500 caters to freerunners who seek balance, well-being, and pure enjoyment in their runs. The shoe offers ample support for both heel strikers and midfoot runners, making it a versatile choice for various running styles. With a stack height of 37mm, an 8mm drop, and weighing just 264g for men (size 42) and 214g for women (size 38), it’s a lightweight companion that minimizes fatigue on longer efforts.
Next-Level Cushioning and Energy Return
At the heart of the KIPRUN Cushion 500 lies the innovative MFOAM midsole, which is 7% softer and delivers 9% more energy return compared to its predecessor, the KS500.2. This thoughtful enhancement ensures plush landings and bouncy toe-offs, keeping your legs fresher for longer — whether you’re cruising through recovery miles or pushing the pace in a tempo session.
All-Day Comfort, Mile After Mile
Comfort is non-negotiable, and KIPRUN understands that well. The shoe features a circular knit upper paired with padded foam, creating a snug and breathable fit that adapts to your foot. This design prioritizes long-lasting comfort, so you can focus on the run ahead without distractions.
Accessibility Without Compromise
In line with KIPRUN’s mission to make high-quality running gear accessible to all, the Cushion 500 comes with an attractive price tag of €69.99 / £49.99. It’s available both online and in DECATHLON stores worldwide, with four permanent colorways for men and women, plus seasonal updates throughout the year.
Early feedback from runners has been overwhelmingly positive, with users praising the shoe’s balance of comfort and performance. As Sébastien Laurent, Product Manager at KIPRUN, shared, “Very comfortable for running, whether for easy jogs or tempo runs. Great value for money.”
Whether you’re a seasoned marathoner or just starting your running journey, the KIPRUN Cushion 500 stands out as a reliable, well-rounded shoe that delivers far more than its price suggests. It’s a testament to KIPRUN’s dedication to empowering runners everywhere — because every stride deserves the best support.
