Is nagging heel pain holding you back? If you’ve felt that sharp, stabbing sensation of plantar fasciitis, you’re not alone—it’s one of the most common causes of heel pain, affecting millions every year. But the right support can help you get back on your feet and moving comfortably again.

Everyday activities like standing, walking, or running errands can feel like a chore when plantar fasciitis strikes. Most shoes are flat inside and don’t provide the support your feet need, leaving your heels and arches unprotected and making discomfort worse over time.

That’s where KURU comes in. Our plantar fasciitis shoes for men feature our innovative KURUSOLE technology, which hugs your heels and dynamically flexes to support every step. This unique design not only targets heel pain but also reduces strain across your entire foot, helping you stay comfortable from morning to night.

Whether you’re powering through a long day at work, tackling a to-do list, or just out for a stroll, KURU’s plantar fasciitis shoes are built to keep you moving in comfort. Say hello to the freedom of healthier, happier feet.

FAQs

The best men’s shoes for plantar fasciitis offer heel cushioning with a deep heel cup, arch support, and cushioning throughout the footbed to absorb shock. These features reduce heel pressure and provide comfort with each step, making daily activities more manageable.
Doctors often recommend shoes with features like arch support, heel cushioning, and a deep heel cup for those with plantar fasciitis. These elements relieve pressure on the plantar fascia and help keep you on your feet comfortably. Look for plantar fasciitis shoes that combine these qualities for lasting support.
Avoid shoes like dress shoes or flimsy flip-flops without arch support if you have plantar fasciitis, as they can strain your heels and the plantar fascia, increasing discomfort. Hard, flat soles and thin cushioning can also aggravate plantar fasciitis symptoms. The best option is supportive shoes with arch and heel support, adequate cushioning, and stability to reduce foot pressure and improve comfort.

Best for plantar fasciitis

I have had plantar fasciitis for about 4 months now, I have used rollers, sleeves, stretching, other shoes, inserts, etc. They all have helped but I could never really walk without pain. KURU shoes are wonderful I can walk with almost no pain and without limping. They have really improve my way of life. I can wholeheartedly recommend KURU shoes."

Plantar Fasciitis Reliever

The ATOM is a great shoe. I had plantar fasciitis and was battling for almost a year. My friend told me about KURU and ordered QUANTUM. Within the first week the pain in my heel was gone! The first time I wore a different pair of shoes the pain came back. Since then I have thrown away my old shoes and started buying different style shoes from KURU. ROAM and KINETIC are also really good. Game changer for me. By far one of the best and well made shoes out there."
