CEP Omnispeed

CEP Omnispeed

The CEP Omnispeed is no ordinary running shoe – it’s specifically designed to make running more efficient and enjoyable. An intelligent system within the shoe makes use of the foot’s natural movement: it stores energy with each step and releases it during toe-off – much like a trampoline. This windlass mechanism provides greater propulsion, reduced energy loss, and improved running efficiency. 

The New CEP Omnispeed

With the Omnispeed, CEP – known for its high-quality compression products – is launching its very first running shoe, and it’s a game-changer. The goal: running should become not only faster but also healthier. This is made possible by the innovative BOWTECH™ technology, which optimally supports the foot’s natural movement while delivering noticeably more energy.

The use of the patented kinetic BowTech technology in combination with Elite N+Foam enhances the natural mechanics of the foot, providing high energy return as well as improved stability for the foot and ankle during running.

Better cushioning on impact. More propulsion during toe-off. Increased energy efficiency and performance. The CEP Omnispeed respects and supports natural movement while delivering a noticeable energy boost that enables higher speeds and reduced fatigue over long distances.

CEP – From Medical Compression to Sports Innovation

CEP has its roots in medical compression—and that’s where its strength lies. Behind the brand is the German company Medi, which has been manufacturing medical compression stockings for over 70 years. In 2007 the team asked: Why not bring the best of medical expertise into sport? Since then, CEP has been developing products that are not only brilliantly engineered but truly effective—for greater performance, faster recovery, and fewer injuries. Whether you’re a recreational runner or a pro, CEP is here for everyone who wants to get more out of their run. In addition to sports socks, CEP also offers compression socks for everyday wear, travel, and business.

“As a runner, I know how important it is to get in enough training miles. The CEP Omnispeed shoes help me run more efficiently – which means less strain on the body and more lightness with every step,” says our physiotherapist and passionate runner Tamara Kamm.

In addition to her work as a physiotherapist, Tamara also brings her personal running experience into our running coaching – a valuable combination that benefits not only her own training but also the runners she supports individually. Interested in coaching? We look forward to your call.

What’s inside the Omnispeed? 

The CEP Omnispeed is more than just a running shoe – it was developed from the ground up to make running more efficient and more enjoyable. At its core is a smart internal system that works with the foot’s natural movement rather than against it.

Imagine this: with every step, energy is absorbed upon landing – and released again during push-off. Much like a trampoline that supports you while jumping. Inside the shoe, a specially engineered system harnesses the so-called windlass mechanism of the foot. This biomechanical function stores energy when the foot strikes the ground and releases it during toe-off – like a springboard under your foot. The result: more propulsion, less energy loss, and improved running efficiency.
