Karhu Joins The Running Griffin’s Running Related Business Listings

The Running Griffin would like to welcome Karhu to our Running Related Business listings.

KARHU, meaning “bear” in Finnish, is a leading running brand in Europe and has provided technical running and outdoor gear for nearly 100 years. With an authentic heritage in running and a deep connection to the outdoors, KARHU follows the Finnish principles of design simplicity and running purity. KARHU shoes have been worn on the feet of some of the greatest Finnish runners, including Boston Marathon champion Olavi Suomalainen, and Paavo Nurmi, giving rise to the Flying Finns.

I have been using the Karhu Flow Fulcrums for my short distance runs and they have been working splendidly. The sneakers are super lightweight but offer just the right amount of foot support to ensure running stability. The sneakers, bright red in color, provide both a good look out on the race course but more importantly have held up over a series of races.

Keep an eye out at races for the Karhu Airstream camper and meet-up with the friendly and helpful Karhu staffers/runners who are both informative and downright great people.
