About QK Running

Founded in 2019, QK Running is a performance-driven running apparel brand built by runners, for runners.

We came together as a team of daily runners—whether in the city or trails—sharing a passion for the sport. QK Running is created to fill the gap between technical functionality and real-world comfort. From daily jogs to competitive marathons, we design running apparel that adapts to your movement, supports your pace, and breathes with your body. With a dedicated R&D team and real-runner testing, our products are built for performance and comfort.

Our Mission - Apparel That Truly Understands Runners

At QK Running, we believe great running gear should feel like a second skin. We recognize that each run—whether it’s a scorching summer morning or a cold winter marathon—brings unique challenges. That’s why we’ve built a full range of year-round, multi-scenario apparel, and use a runner’s-eye perspective to continuously refine our design logic: from fabric choices and fit to real-world feedback and updates.

Our product lines include:

Tops: ultra-light, breathable running tanks, quick-dry tees, wind- and water-resistant jackets—designed to adapt from summer training to winter endurance runs.
Bottoms: high-stretch, non-binding shorts; compression tights optimized for marathons; and versatile running pants made for all-day wear.

Our Vision - Beloved by Runners Worldwide

We aspire to be the go-to original running gear brand—not just in Asia, but globally. QK Running isn’t just about making shirts and shorts; it’s about co-creating a lifestyle. Moving forward, we will continue innovating in function, design, and sustainable materials—always delivering “running apparel that truly understands you” to support every runner’s journey.

QK R&D Philosophy - Runner-Centric, Detail-Driven Design

Every product we release undergoes rigorous road testing, with real feedback from marathoners, trail runners, and urban joggers driving our iterations. We collaborate with both elite athletes and everyday runners—using test data, surveys, and fitting trials to ensure every design detail enhances comfort and performance.

Core aspects of our R&D process:

Selecting lightweight, fast-drying, durable, and antimicrobial high-performance fabrics
Prioritizing a seamless “second-skin” feel with ergonomic, high-elasticity cuts
Employing advanced production techniques such as laser cutting and ultrasonic welded seams
Continuously collecting feedback from diverse runners across regions and abilities to refine every release

Runner Stories - From Morning 5K to the Finish Line

“I ran my first marathon in a QK Running tank. In the final 10K, I almost collapsed—but every glance at that familiar logo reminded me that this was my journey.” — Andy, member of a running club in Shanghai“As a female runner, I struggled to find shorts that fit well without feeling restrictive. QK Running’s women's compression pants made me feel truly understood for the first time.” — Claire, Beijing marathon participant.
