The complete Saucony Kinvara lineage

The Kinvara is Saucony's light, low, flexible 4 mm drop trainer, a holdout from before super foams and carbon plates, and one of the most mourned-over lines in running. In 2023 it looked finished: the Kinvara 14 added stack, an unrelated $180 Kinvara Pro borrowed the name, and 18 months passed with nothing new. Then the Kinvara 15 walked the stack back and the line snapped back to life. The Pro died after one version; the numbered Kinvara lives on. This page tracks every version since 2020.
