OMP KS-2X Kids' Racing Shoes White-Blue (FIA)

OMP KS-2X Kids' Racing Shoes White-Blue (FIA)

The KS-2X is a karting shoe for young drivers from OMP - the Italian motorsport equipment manufacturer. The KS-2X range combines the safety requirements set by the governing body with design solutions that improve comfort and pedal control on track.

The shoes are available in six colour options, making it easy to match them to your child's karting suit or racing livery. This variant pairs white with blue - the two colours are clearly separated across the different panels of the upper and sole.

Detailed design

The white upper is made from smooth material and decorated with blue graphic accents - lines and geometric patterns run along the lateral side of the shoe. The KS-2X model designation and the OMP logo appear on the outer mid-foot area, with the logo repeated on the ankle as a blue badge. Vibrant blue laces contrast with the white upper, while the tongue is finished in dark grey mesh fabric. The toe cap and rear section of the sole are covered in black material, creating a two-tone arrangement with a blue sole edge. The tongue also displays the FIA 8877-2022 compliance marking.

Construction and materials

• Homologation: FIA 8877-2022 - the current certification approving the shoes for karting competitions held under FIA regulations.
• Upper: high-resistance smooth material with mesh inserts for airflow.
• Ventilation: laser-cut holes in the upper assist air circulation around the foot.
• Closure: slim tongue and collar for a secure fit on a child's foot; an inward-facing Velcro ankle strap reduces the risk of snagging on kart components.
• Flexibility: a rear bellows and two-tone sole improve the range of foot movement while driving.
• Colour options: available in six colourways, including white-blue.

For the young karting driver

The OMP KS-2X is designed for children competing in karting events where FIA Karting homologation is required. The unisex cut and wide size availability make this model a great choice for both boys and girls who are just starting out in competitive racing. The inward-facing Velcro strap is a key safety detail - it eliminates the risk of the fastening catching on pedals or other cockpit components.

Why choose the OMP KS-2X?

• Current FIA homologation: the FIA 8877-2022 standard approves the shoes for official FIA-sanctioned karting competitions.
