The Puma Calibrate Runner may have been made in a lab, but it was inspired by the needs of humans all over the globe. The cushioning was meticulously designed in collaboration with the MIT Design Lab, fine-tuned, and styled for streetwear collectors who are also avid runners. The compression is there to give each step a little extra spring, making for a rebound effect you won’t soon forget. This shoe debuts XETIC technology, a Puma initiative that combines structure and foam and tests the ratio and patterns before settling on the perfect fit for the Calibrate Runner.

Puma minimizes impact, adds serious traction, and tacks on proven durability in this next-gen runner. The shoe is soft enough to feel like a sock at the upper knit, but reinforced at the sides for extra support.
