The Kismet 6 is designed to set new standards of gender tuned fit and performance for runners who prefer a bit more support. We crafted this shoe to make all the things you love about it better, while keeping it the perfect introduction to Newton

Mesh Upper

The mesh upper used on the Newton Kismet 6 Running Shoe is an open-weave mesh which has a no-sew overlay. This maximises conformity to the foot, meaning that it moulds to it, making it feel personalised and comfortable. The material is also lightweight and highly breathable. Allowing of a steady airflow in and out of the shoe, the feet are kept ventilated and cool. Up the foot laces and a padded tongue make finding the right fit easy and whilst it doesn't compromise comfort. The heel is guarded against damage by having a sturdy shield. This stops it from slipping out of place, which could cause an injury. A performance lace and tongue system will allow you to find a supremely comfortable and secure fit easily without any fuss. The new gender-specific fit ensures that the Kismet 6 conforms to the natural shape of your feet ensuring a perfect fit. Lastly, a smooth lining and plush tongue provide enhanced levels of comfort.

Action/Reaction Midsole

The Kismet 6 uses Newton's developed Action/Reaction Technology. As you take a stride, the responsive and trampoline-like cushioning system will absorb the energy before quickly return it as bounce-back. This will mean that the more energy that you put in, the more you will get back from it to give you an added boost. The system will also mean that you will benefit from full cushioning that will offer protection. The firm midsole which, and in particular the firmest part stretches to the forefoot, guarding against late-stage pronation. The new and innovative XPS plate system works with the outsole to maximise impact absorption and energy return whilst delivering a responsive ride. Directly underneath the foot, the shoe uses a soft sockliner. In time, this moulds and remembers the foot's shape, making it extremely comfortable.

Durable Outsole

For the outsole of the shoe, it uses Newton's P.O.P technology. This is an acronym for Power of Point, which is a patented design which increases the shoes' grip and traction through the shape of the lugs on the bottom. They make sudden accelerations, sharp braking and pushing around corners feel easy and controlled. In addition to this, the rubber is an extremely durable and tough one, able to withstand abuse from uneven and rough surfaces.

About Newton

The tale of Newton Running originates with Brian Russell, a full-time inventor from Colorado. Russell was naturally inquisitive in addition to being a keen thinker and innovator. As he was out jogging one day, he came to think about the function and movements of the feet. At that time, there were a lot of things that occupied his head. As he ran barefoot across a grassy ground, he examined the way his feet hit the cushioned ground and the way they react to a solid surface. After years of research, he made a product that used a trampoline-like midsole on the ball of the foot, which discouraged a hard landing on the heel. He showcased his product at running events across the USA for 15 years.

After an encounter with an orthotics provider Danny Abshire, they took the footwear to landlord Jerry Lee with the goal of getting an investment. After a little persuasion, Lee saw the potential in the specially designed shoes, and Newton Running was born

Two decades on, the now international brand continues to innovate new supportive designs, and educates running on the importance of protecting your feet during exercise across the globe
