Karhu

A History of Finnovation.
Moving forward since 1916. Karhu's first product innovations were javelins and discuses. They taught us firsthand the principles of forward momentum where we then applied those principles to footwear. The same way javelins and discuses fly farther and easier with less resistance, the more efficient a runner can be when the foot follows a natural path. The natural ride bio-mechanics make running what it should be: forward, fluid and fast!
Running is natural and it should feel that way.
Karhu® believes and trusts in the foot's natural abilities. The shoe collaborates with the foot for a more natural, efficient ride. While others remove the simplicity of running and complicates mechanics; Karhu® products transform energy and pressure into fluid, forward momentum.
The Fulcrum.
Strong running economics translates to efficient use of energy throughout the three phases of the gait cycle. The award-winning fulcrum technology collaborates with the foot to convert the body's natural energy into forward momentum. From landing to propulsion, the fulcrum transitions the foot from heel to toe quickly and efficiently while the body stays balanced throughout the stride.
More Efficient. More Balanced. Move Forward.
