Features
The Saucony Kinvara Pro is primed to be your carbon-plated running shoe for 99% of your runs. Not just race day.
With cushioning for days and the comfort of your favorite daily trainer, the Kinvara Pro’s ride is as fun and addictive as bouncing on a trampoline.
Unlike its race-day cousin, the Endorphin Pro, the Kinvara Pro is made to hold up to your runs day after day—and thanks to its gentle rolling sensation and ¾-length carbon plate that propels you forward effortlessly, building your running base never felt so easy.

Who It’s Best For
The Kinvara Pro is a high-cushioned neutral running shoe with a ¾-length carbon plate.

Why You’ll Love It
If you crave more cushioned protection for running, but also enjoy the effortless propulsion of a carbon plate, then you’ll love the durability and comfort of this energetic daily trainer.
