361° in the streets 👟📸 We took the 361° USA KAIROS 4 + Eleos 2 out for a few miles around Charlotte. From the responsive, energetic feel of the KAIROS 4 to the smooth, cushioned ride of the Eleos 2, there’s a little something for every kind of run. Two different rides, plenty of reasons to add 361° to your rotation. 🔄
