Never go back to regular shoes after wearing these!

“My boyfriend had hurt his Achilles tendon and needed a good pair of shoes. He will never go back to regular shoes after wearing these!”

Michelle A.
Most comfortable shoe I have ever worn.

“The most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. In my position as a high school principal I am constantly on my feet! Following a three month bout with Achilles tendonitis, this shoe has allowed me to return to full capacity.”

William P.
The support in these runners relieves the tension on my achilles

“Ran 50 miles per week until late last year when Achilles tendonitis and bone spurs in my heels put me on the sidelines. I'm finding that the support in these runners relieves the tension on my Achilles, and the heel design keeps the bottoms of my feet comfortable. I look forward to getting back on the road with these to put them through their paces.”

Amy S.
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!
