  • Adjustable

    Are you looking for a pair of adjustable shoes or adjustable sandals that are just right for your feet? At KURU Footwear, we have a wide range of adjustable shoes, so it doesn’t matter how your foot increases or decreases in size. We’re confident that you’ll find a pair or two of the most comfortable and highly adjustable shoes for all your needs.
  • Ankle Support

    Have ankle pain, or encountered an ankle injury before? You can still enjoy plenty of activities—from walking and running to dancing and hiking—with the best shoes for ankle support.
  • Anti-Fatigue

    Each time our foot strikes the ground—whether we’re walking or running—a significant amount of pressure and impact radiates through our feet and legs. Talk about tiring!
  • Arch Support

    The significance of arch support for our feet cannot be overstated, as these structures play a pivotal role in maintaining overall foot health. The arches serve as natural shock absorbers, distributing the body’s weight evenly and reducing the impact on joints with every step. Beyond mere weight distribution, arch support is essential for ensuring proper foot alignment, which in turn contributes to overall body posture and stability.
  • Back Support

    Back pain can cause a decline in a person’s quality of life. They may miss work or be unable to spend time with loved ones due to the excruciating pain caused by a lack of back support. Luckily, KURU offers the best back support shoes you’ll ever own. You do not have to endure the pain with these shoes!
  • Breathable

    It can be tough to find shoes that are both stylish and comfortable. You might find a pair that you love, but they’re not very comfortable to wear for long periods.
  • Comfortable

    Footwear should fuel your movement, not work against it. We believe foot pain should never have to be the reason you slow down. But it sure can be difficult to find a shoe that feels just as good as it looks!
  • Corrective

    Foot pain can hamper your daily productivity. Whether you’re cleaning the house, running or playing with your children, going hiking, commuting to work, or simply exercising, you’ll need corrective shoes to reduce the pain and take care of your feet. This is especially the case if you have deformities or foot injuries and you experience numbness or neuropathy.
  • Cushioned

    Ever tried walking in a shoe with plenty of cushion but no support? You might feel like you’re walking on clouds at first—yet end the day with tired, achy feet. To give our feet both comfort and pain relief, the shoes we wear need superior support just as much cushion. At KURU, we believe you can have both!
  • Durable

    If you’re looking for durable shoes that will provide you pain relief, you’ve come to the right place. Foot pain is caused by a wide variety of conditions, with plantar fasciitis being one of the most common causes. Finding a pair of durable and comfortable shoes will help you enjoy your day-to-day activities in comfort.
  • Heel Support

    The heel of your foot will always carry the weight of your body and will carry even more weight whenever you stand still, walk, and run. Fortunately, our heels are the most resilient part of our foot and can absorb impact and shock through every movement. However, this doesn’t mean that your heels won’t need additional support during various activities.
  • High Top

    High tops are one of the most iconic and popular shoes around. It’s tough to find anyone who doesn’t own at least one pair of high-top shoes!
  • Indoor

    What do you do when the weather turns bad and you can’t play your favorite sport or go running outdoors? If you’re really dedicated to improving your skills and getting your gains, then you’ll simply move to an indoor court and play there.
  • Knee Support

    Whether you’re physically active or not, you’ll need the right shoes that will support your knees regardless of the ground’s texture. Knee pains can be excruciating, so you need the best shoes for knee support.
  • Lightweight

    Ever felt dragged down by a pair of heavy footwear? Maybe your back starts to ache mid-hike or you feel like your feet are dragging on a long walk.
  • Low Top

    Want something lowkey yet stylish and flexible? Get yourself a great pair of low-top shoes from KURU! Whether you need low-top hiking shoes, low-top work shoes, or low-top casual shoes, we have a wide selection designed for your varying needs and preferences.
  • Mid Top

A new take on the classic silhouette, our mid-top shoes are available in a wide range of colors, designs, and high-quality materials so that you can discover the perfect pair for your needs and preferences.
  • Non-Slip

    The last thing you want to worry about on slippery floors is slipping. Whether you’re a medical professional moving quickly between rooms or a food service industry worker carrying trays of dishes, you deserve reliable non-slip shoes.
  • Orthopedic

    Orthopedic shoes are footwear designed to offer quality support and place your feet in the proper anatomical position to promote optimal foot health.Custom orthopedic shoes are often designed specifically to treat foot pain conditions such as plantar fasciitis, Morton’s neuroma, hammertoes, bunions, and neuropathy. They are typically built with wide toe boxes, arch support, and shock absorbency to support your feet and reduce impact on your joints and ligaments.
  • Orthotic

    With KURU on your side, you can enjoy top-quality orthotic shoes that offer superior shock absorption and powerful support for your feet.

Three Layers of Support

At KURU, we pride ourselves on our unique approach to shoe design. We believe that shoes should be shaped to fit the natural contours of your feet, which is why we create every pair in three distinct support layers, not just an insole.

Our revolutionary ergonomic design starts with a curved footbed and adds unparalleled triple-layer support that includes shock-absorbing KURUCLOUD, heel-cupping KURUSOLE, and arch-supporting ULTIMATE INSOLES. The result? Shoes that are so comfortable you’ll stop thinking about your feet.

Most Supportive Shoe I’ve Ever Worn. The first moment I put the Quantums on, I knew it was a unique and amazing shoe. The support and cushioning is without a doubt the best of any brand I’ve tried, and that is a lot because I have chronic plantar fasciitis which has led me to try shoe after shoe after shoe to help relieve it. In addition to the foot health features, the shoes are so attractive. My mom wants a pair, and she doesn’t even suffer from foot pain! Well done, KURU! I am a customer for life, and the proof is that I’ve bought three pairs in the last month!”

Great feature. Shoe is incredibly comfortable and slip resistant!

Jay Read

Great shoes! My tennis coach recommended these shoes and they are awesome. They cradle and support your feet all around. The toe design is one of the best features. Most shoes feel too long because they have more of a pointed toe and extra space. These have a flatter toe (on the end) which makes footwork easier.”
