Featuring Osaga’s innovative bio-kinetic sole with cantilevered “kinetic levers,” the KT-26 dissipates impact forces and stores energy to spring the runner forward, an advanced concept known as kinetic response. With a rigid heel counter, breathable nylon mesh upper, and gender-specific construction including slim widths for women, the KT-26 delivers lasting comfort and durability. A Runner’s World 5-star rated shoe, the KT-26 remains a standout example of 1970s running innovation and a true step ahead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPDATE: \u003c\/strong\u003eFrom Track to Street - They’re Back!
