Karhu Fusion 2.0 Cork/tangerine Cork
In the mid -1960s, racing footwear were limited and the "training" shoes did not exist. There were tips for training and competitions, but there were no shoes to warm up, cool off or do easy kilometers. Athletics athletics asked for a shoe with which they could make their daily training races, so Karhu developed the trampas. Materials: - Upperly sudden leather upper - Logo M in synthetic leather - Led leather lining - Plantar with leather upholstery with arc support - rope laces with reflective detail - Karhu logo engraved on the heel - Design of the Trampas box inspired at 'original
Karhu means “bear” in Finnish. The label used to be one of the best kept secrets among in athletic circles, but we think you’ll be happy we let the fashion cat out of the bag. The first pair of shoes were made for athletes Hannes Kolehmainen and Vielle Ritola aka The Flying Finns, in 1916. It’s widely held that Kolehmaine and Ritola’s superior footwear arguably had an influence in helping them scoop gold medals all over the globe. Today, Karhu continues to push tech boundaries – science meets style, whether you’re a serious athlete or just want to look good in some fine shoes. Team Karhu spends as much time exploring science as it does style, and the brand's much-lauded, patented Fulcrum technology uses a runner's natural energy to create a smoother ride and keep all forces moving forward.
