WHY KURU?

WE BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF DREAMS TO CHANGE LIVES.

Based in beautiful Salt Lake City, Utah - we are independently owned and web-driven. Our founder wanted to start a shoe company in 5th grade. What started as a child’s dream became reality when he launched KURU during the Great Recession of 2008. But we got lucky. His dream was so powerful it led to the invention of KURUSOLE. Since then, thousands have experienced the superior support, style and pain-free comfort of KURU.

Our relentless focus on innovation reflects our commitment to endless comfort. Which is why we design and develop footwear that outperforms at the highest levels. With nature on our side, some science and a bit of magic; we are obsessed with raising the bar. Something good enough to chase your dreams is more than a shoe—it's a KURU.

Whether you need walking shoes or comfortable shoes for work, look no further than the patented KURUSOLE for maximum comfort and superior support.
