The Kipsummit Max turns KIPRUN's trail franchise toward long distances, with maximum cushioning meant to support you on the most extreme distances. Fastech+ foam provides responsive energy return and shock absorption, and a Vibram outsole grips the ground. The drop is 6 mm and it weighs about 268 g.

It suits long trails and ultras, for runners who put shock absorption over everything else and want a protected ride for the late hours of a long day, when comfort counts for more than pace.

It is not a nimble shoe. Deep cushion and about 268 g favour protection, so short, fast trail efforts will feel dull, and nothing here points to a plate or race foam to help with pace.
