361º Kairos 2: Stability Without Compromise

The 361º Kairos 2 is a dependable daily trainer engineered for runners who value support, protection, and durabilityover flashy responsiveness. Designed specifically for mild overpronators and those prioritizing long-term injury prevention, the Kairos 2 offers a smooth, structured ride that inspires confidence with every step — making it an excellent choice for runners looking to stay consistent and comfortable across their training blocks.

The foundation of the Kairos 2 is its wide platform and renewed geometry, which provide a naturally stable base without the need for aggressive medial posting. Whether you’re a heel striker or a midfoot lander, the gentle rocker geometry encourages fluid forward motion while easing transition through the gait cycle.

Underfoot, the shoe uses Engage foam — a protective, high-density midsole compound that prioritizes impact reduction and durability over bounce and energy return. While it may lack the lively feel of faster trainers, it excels in providing a cushioned, steady experience for runners logging consistent daily mileage or building back from injury.

The upper features a 70% recycled mesh, combining breathable comfort with a secure, anatomical fit. The pressure-free tongue reduces irritation on longer runs, while a removable Ortholite X-40 insole adds soft step-in comfort and moisture management. Below, a durable carbon rubber outsole with higher-density medial support ensures long-lasting traction and guidance over time.

If you’re looking for a protective, no-nonsense daily trainer that delivers where it matters — support, balance, and longevity — the Kairos 2 is a true workhorse that shows up every day, ready to go.
