Until recently, talking about carbon plates meant talking about sneakers reserved for a few pockets. Today Decathlon exceeds this ceiling with the Kiprun KD900X LD2, now reduced to € 109.99, a figure that attracts attention for what it offers and for the time of year in which it arrives. The Kiprun KD900X LD2 incorporates a carbon plate, designed to improve stride efficiency and energy return. In running, this translates to a more responsive feel and easier paces to maintain when training gets serious. The midsole is designed for long distances, combining stability and responsiveness without compromising comfort. It is not a neutral shoe for riding peacefully, but a model clearly oriented towards performance, with a light and competitive design that is noticeable from the first kilometers. These Kiprun KD900X LD2s are designed for those who already train with some regularity and move at medium and fast paces. They work particularly well between 4:30 and 4:00 min/km, where the carbon plate starts to be really noticeable in the pitch transition and energy savings. They are a good option for 10K, half marathon and even marathon running, provided the runner has poor technique. They are not best suited for very calm shoots or beginning to run, but they are aimed at those looking to improve their grades, compete or pick up the pace in a quality workout. In actual use, these Kipruns are particularly suitable for runners who already train regularly and want to go further without paying the price of other carbon plate shoes. They are ideal for competition, for quality sessions or to prepare for important goals. The fact that they now cost €109.99 makes them a real early gift from Santa. At this price, few options offer such a balanced combination of technology, reliability and performance. Decathlon proves once again that running fast is not necessarily synonymous with excessive spending. Sometimes, improving your grades starts with finding the right fit…and at the right time. In the ABC Favorites section we continue to look for practical offers and products that make a difference in your daily routine, both in technology, fashion, home and much more.
