Arahi 9

StabilityReleased 2026JP

Arahi 9 is a stability road shoe for everyday running and walking, using enhanced H-Frame support to limit excessive inward roll without overcorrecting gait. Softer dual-density compression-molded EVA works with an engineered mesh upper reinforced medially. Haptic print, 3D silicone touchpoints, and reflective details refine the upper, while a super-abrasion rubber outsole adds durability for repeated daily use.
