Ultra Kilowatt Running Shoe - Men's

Star light, star bright, the first star tonight is The North Face Men's Ultra Kilowatt Running Shoe. This sleek shoe doesn't mess with overlays or awkward construction. Instead, the Kilowatt stays out of your way to give your feet free rein regardless of the activity. Whether you're firmly fixed on training for that next big line or running to the gym for functional fitness fun, the Kilowatt shines bright light.

The Ultra Airmesh and FlashDry Fibers turn the top of the Kilowatt into a quick-drying, breathable piece of shoe splendor that's particularly friendly to sockless feet. The EVA insole kicks off the cushioning without adding weight to the shoe, but it's the midsole that really helps the Kilowatt shine a little brighter. A full-length layer of Pebax serves to stabilize your heel and footstrike while standing guard against roots and rocks and crumbling concrete underneath your toes. EVA cushions and disperses the impact of your landings while bouncing back to keep you bopping along. Vibram rubber on the bottom has a few lugs for good luck and lots of little lines to stay pliable over the long haul.
