What's Our Secret?

Our secret sauce? Our patented solution to heel pain relief, KURUSOLE—a foot health game changer built into every pair of KURU shoes we sell.

Unlike anything else, KURUSOLE’s responsive technology dynamically flexes with each step to hug and protect your heels.

The curved, heel-cupping design protects the body’s natural cushioning system—the heel pad—so your feet stay happy and healthy in the most comfortable shoes.

5 stars for pain relief! This is my go-to shoe.

Why Heels Hurt

Every step you take starts with your heels—and it can get painful, fast. Repeated stress on the band of tissue underneath our feet—our plantar fascia—can lead to tightness, inflammation, and micro-tears. This overuse results in the characteristic symptom of plantar fasciitis: heel pain.

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.

Best work shoes

I work as a massage therapist and I'm on my feet most of the day, not only do these shoes help with my foot fatigue, they've helped my chronic low back and hip pain significantly. I recommend them to anyone who spends a lot of time on their feet.

Love them!

I've been doing security work for eight years and these are by FAR the most comfortable work shoes I have ever worn. I've worn them for three weeks now and I feel as though I could wear them and work another five to seven years and I'm 67 years old. Thanks KURU!
