Li-Ning Red Hare 9 Pro

A 2026 high-performance trainer that redefines stability for runners — seamlessly adapting to medium-intensity training, fitness assessments, marathon prep and everyday runs.

Core Technology

• Dual-Density Boom Midsole: full-length dual-layer Li-Ning Boom delivers 7% improved rebound and 8% enhanced cushioning. Widened 10.9mm at the heel and 0.8mm at the forefoot with a wing-shaped TPU support sheet — +6% stability, –5% knee abduction moment.
• Upgraded Boom Fiber upper: fine jacquard upper is 59% more breathable, with 3D woven construction and a refined heel lock for a sock-like fit.
• GCR lightweight slip-resistant outsole: next-gen GCR rubber, lighter than standard rubber, with 14% better grip and 15.7% improved wear resistance across 300+km of use.
• PROBAR LOC stability system: an integrated arch stabiliser connecting forefoot and heel, reducing fatigue and injury risk during sprints, turns and long runs.

How Each Layer Helps

• Upper (Boom Silk mesh) — light, breathable and locks the foot in securely.
• Top midsole layer (Super Boom) — soft, responsive cushioning on landing.
• Wing-shaped TPU support plate — locks in anti-torsion stability through turns and quick stops.
• Bottom midsole layer (Boom) — reinforces rebound and keeps the ride durable over high-mileage training.

Who It's For
