What Makes Newton Unique?

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.

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.

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.


What Our Runners Think
Every year I buy a new Kismet. I'm always happy with the fit and comfort.
Cool color
40 days in and I have only tried them on. They are a bit snug so I have stretchers in them until winter finally decides to bid us adieu. I didn't know my 77-year-old feet could grow but apparently, they have. Next time I'll bump up 1/2 size. My previous Kismets hang on like the champs they are ... which makes Kismets my go to shoe. The styling and color choice is perfect, and the foot bed is great for tired, old combat worn feet. Really like Kismets.
I've been running in Newton Kismet's for 11 years. They continue to perform and raise the bar every year.
The Shoe is great. Very responsive, and I run faster with them vs my previous Nike's.
However, the shoe runs a 1/2 size smaller than what is stated. Also would like to see additional color choices.
