From “Ouch” to “Ahh”

Real Talk - What Even Is a KURU?

1. It’s a shoe — but with house-made patented tech that flexes with your heel, not against it.

2. It’s designed to fix chronic foot pain. No inserts. No gimmicks.

3. It looks like something you want to wear. And your podiatrist would be proud.

4. It works. And we can prove it.

"I used to think these reviews were fake, but my plantar fasciitis is truly gone." - Andre C.

These shoes saved my life. Period.

I’ve been a server for over 15 years. I have plantar fasciitis and I'm 5 months pregnant. I have tried every shoe on earth to fix my chronic excruciating foot pain and nothing has worked. THESE SHOES HAVE SAVED MY FEET! I no longer have any foot pain. AT ALL. I used to come home after a shift and immediately have to soak my feet in hot water and spend the next day in bed. Now I come home from work and can still stand up straight and walk around comfortably! I never want to take them off! The first day I wore them to work I cried at the end of my shift because I couldn’t believe I found the solution to my foot pain. If you have foot issues. Get these shoes.

Mindy J.

Great Pair of Shoes!

I was very hesitant at first.
But after reading reviews online and checking reviews in forums and on YouTube, I decided to get a pair.

So far, they are some of the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn.

They definitely help with heel pain and will even look into getting an extra pair down the road.

James S.

Very Comfy Shoe!

I recently purchased my first pair of KURU shoes.

I had never heard of the brand and was unsure about trying them, even if I could return them.

They turned out to be very comfortable and offered the support I needed.

Jean J.

Fixed my aching arches

LOVE these shoes.

The first pair solved my plantar fasciitis pain. They felt so good on my feet, I ordered another pair.

Highly recommend. Great arch and heel support.

Tracie C.

So happy! No pain!

My foot pain was unbearable.

When I put on my first pair of KURUs, the pain was gone, like a miracle.

I now have 6 different pairs of KURU shoes and don't buy any other footwear.
Nothing compares.

NJ BTC

Best sandals ever!

After reading the reviews, I decided to take a chance and am very happy I did!

My heel, which normally hurts after a while, has zero pain. The footbed is cushiony but sturdy. I bought the lighter color that goes with everything.

I get lots of compliments. Very happy and highly recommend!

Donna O.

I Was Skeptical

After reading the reviews, I was still skeptical…but…I can truly say that these are the best footwear I have ever purchased…worth the cost.

Usually, by the end of the day, my feet are killing me. After wearing them all day, I didn’t want to take them off.

You have a new customer, and I will recommend them to individuals with foot issues.

Michael S.

Life Changing!

It felt like one morning I woke up and suddenly I had a heel spur. I did some quick googling and came upon KURU shoes, and thank God I did because they have saved me!! I really can't recommend these shoes enough.

Best shoes ever!

This is my second pair. 10 out of 10 recommend. I struggle with plantar fasciitis and these are a life saver. I don't wear any other shoes now.

Great shoes, helped with plantar fasciitis, took about a week to get broke in and comfortable, but they are great.

Jim R.

You have a convert.

My many pair of new balance have been put to the back of my closet and my single pair of KURU is all I wear. Thanks for a great product.

John G.

So Happy

I am so happy a friend recommended this company. These shoes feel as if I'm walking on air they are so light, comfortable, and supportive on my feet. I'm in the process of ordering another pair.

I love these shoes. The best feeling is being supported and keeping my feet, knees and ankles all in line. I know this won’t be the last pair I buy. Lucky me, there’s so many styles to choose from, too.
