Excellent choice for budget-conscious beginner runners. The Kipcore Premium's SOFTECH cushioning foam provides well-balanced shock absorption. The 27mm/35mm stack height is generous for an entry-level shoe, and the 8mm drop suits most natural gaits. At 272g, it won't feel heavy for new runners. The comfortable wrap-around upper ensures a secure, worry-free fit. Ideal for 2-3 weekly sessions of 3-8km. At £74.99 RRP, it offers outstanding value as a first serious running shoe. While not for racing, it provides everything a beginner needs to build a running habit comfortably.
