Runner mid-stride on a city street at golden hour

Our story

Born on early mornings and empty streets.

Stridesole started with two runners, a garage workshop and a simple frustration: shoes that felt incredible for fifty miles and flat by a hundred.

So we built our own. Today, every pair is designed to keep its bounce for 500+ miles, built from materials that tread lighter on the planet, and backed by a 60-day trial — so you can run in them before you decide.

"Great shoes disappear on your feet. You just remember the run."
— Maya Okafor, Co-founder

Reviews

Loved by runners, mile after mile.

  • "Ran a 12-minute marathon PR in the Tempo 2. The ride is ridiculously smooth and they still feel new after 300 miles."

  • "I'm on my feet for 12-hour nursing shifts and the Drift is the first shoe that doesn't leave me aching at the end."
