What Makes Newton Unique?


OutsideView

Advanced Innovation

Made from recycled materials, engineered for the nuances of each gender's biomechanics, and powered with the only truly active technology in athletic footwear our shoes have never felt better on the foot, or on the run. You are unique and powerful, now you have the shoes to match.

TopView

Elevated Durable Fit

The new generation features substantial fit upgrades to keep you comfortable and at your best. Our gender tuning customizes the fit specifically to you, while new lining and lace configurations enhance security and eliminate potential friction and pressure points. And, our new HyLyte insoles take the spring in your step to the next level.

BottomView

Action/Reaction TechnologyTM

The magic powering Newton Running shoes is the revolutionary full foot Action/Reaction TechnologyTM system. The lugs on the sole compress and rebound as you move through each stride, creating a responsive, trampoline-like cushioning system that provides greater impact absorption, quicker bounce-back, and less energy loss than traditional foam-core running shoes.

Kismet for Life!

Hopefully they will keep this model going because they keep me going! Been a fan from Gen2 and because of consistency and comfort.

The heel of the shoe sections to the ground.

Missing my Distance shoe

I never thought I could tell the difference in weight but the Kismet is definitely "heavier" than the Distance and took me a while to get used to them. Still a good shoe but ill probably go back to the Distance.

Ran in Asics for 15 years and was ready for a change when I was introduced to Newtons last year. This is my second pair of Kismets and I am obsessed. They are light but provide a ton of support and cushion. Worth the price.

Great Shoe

I have been running in the Kismets since they came out. Love the shoe and small adjustments that have been made with each new model have not sacrificed the original design of the shoe.
