WHY OTHERS LOVE KURU

Kuru Carreras are amazing! I have to tell you these Carreras are the absolute best. As soon as they go on, they hug my foot with the deep heel and comfortable arches. I have never worn athletic shoes which did not have to be 'broken in.' I am a believer!

~Lonie

Great support. I have purchased 4 pairs. My plantar fasciitis is completely gone. I play pickleball 4 to 5 times a week and I will not get on the court without them, although not expressly a court shoe they are very supportive and are non-marking... They look good and feel good. I have recommended them to four of my fellow pickelball players and they are all hooked on them.

~Pickelball Bob

Running never felt this good! I bought this pair of Kuru shoes hoping to get back into walking. I have since surpassed walking but now back to running. My knees don't hurt, my hips and back feel great and these amazing shoes hold up to be beating them against the pavement. Thanks again Kuru!
