Li-Ning Kirin LIGHT 2.0 — Professional Table Tennis Shoe

The Kirin series is already legendary in table tennis circles — the LIGHT 2.0 strips it down to its fastest form. The Li-Ning Kirin LIGHT 2.0 (APPW013-1) in White/Purple is engineered for elite athletes who play close to the table and demand instant response from every step. At ~250g per shoe, it’s one of the lightest professional table tennis shoes on the market, with a thinner sole profile that puts you in direct contact with the court — so you feel every shift before you make it.

Performance & Technical Features

• Li-Ning BOOM Midsole: Supercritical fluid foaming delivers high energy return and impact protection at minimal weight — powering explosive lateral bursts without adding bulk.
• High-Elastic EVA Insole: Absorbs shock and reduces foot fatigue during extended training sessions, keeping you fresh deep into long matches.
• One-Piece Seamless Vamp: A seamless upper construction improves ventilation and creates a snug, "one-to-one" fit that moves with your foot rather than against it.
• Breathable Mesh + TPU + Synthetic Leather: A composite upper balances maximum airflow with the durability needed for high-frequency court use.
• Dragon-Scale Non-Marking Outsole: A dragon-scale inspired traction pattern on the non-marking rubber outsole delivers maximum grip on indoor court surfaces for confident, slide-free footwork.
• Carbon Fiber Midfoot Plate: Prevents torsion and provides structural support during explosive lunges and sudden direction changes.
• LIGHT Profile: A thinner sole than the standard Kirin 2.0 offers superior ground feel — ideal for close-to-table players who rely on precise footwork and court feedback.

Sizing Advice

Li-Ning follows Asian sizing, which runs slightly narrower than US/EU standards. The flexible materials conform well to most foot shapes, but players with very wide feet should consider sizing up by half a size to avoid forefoot pinching. Measure your foot length in millimeters and consult the Li-Ning official size chart for the best fit.
