Karhu's history

Karhu is born in Finland. This may be the most famous brand in the country. Karhu is founded in 1916. So Karhu has a humongous amount of experience, but also: success. Karhu's glow up started in the '20s and '30s when Finnish athletes won multiple medals at the Olympics while wearing Karhu shoes. The perfect promotion for the Finnish brand! 
How Karhu got famous in the previous century, was with help of the three stripes on their shoes. Karhu sold this trademark in 1952 to another big company in the current sports industry, named Adidas. Karhu sold the rights for €1600 and 2 good bottles of whiskey!
In the last decades, Karhu became an important pioneer in the sneaker world. With different classic and dope sneakers, like the Karhu Synchron Classic, and the Karhu Fusion 2.0, Karhu is here to stay in the sneaker scene.

High-quality and aesthetically pleasing Karhu sneakers

Aesthetically pleasing colorways, durability, and a comfortable fit - that's what describes Karhu sneakers the best. The Finnish shoe brand has built a very strong reputation over the years when we're talking about high-quality sneakers. Karhu owes this to the fact that it was founded in 1916. Karhu has a humongous amount of experience. What else is special about Karhu's shoes, is that they are multifunctional. You can use Karhu shoes casually for school or work situations, but the Karhu shoes are also perfectly suitable for outdoor activities. This is because Karhu combined the classic runner shape with the comfort that you would expect from a good sneaker. A Karhu sneaker also excels because of the combined colors in the shoe. Multiple Karhu shoes have different color patterns. Check out the Karhu Fusion 2.0, or the Karhu Legacy 96 and you'll see why Karhu sneakers are special.

Highlighted Karhu shoes at FRESHCOTTON

At FRESHCOTTON we think all sneakers from Karhu are special. The combination of interesting color use and the sporty touch make the Karhu shoes unique in its kind. However, there are some models that really deserve to be highlighted:

The Karhu Synchron Classic sneakers are exceptional because of their story. They dropped for the first time in 1980 and became an instant success. The main reason for this was Karhu's use of 'unorthodox laces'. This success got an extension in the '90s with a new release of the shoes that were loved again. And today we can also get joy from the Karhu Synchron Classic shoes, which have today's soul backed by the style of the past. Last but definitely not least we're highlighting the Karhu Fusion 2.0 shoes. These shoes also dropped for the first time in the '90s and pleased the public immediately. What's so special about these Karhu sneakers is the fact they are often used as running shoes. Even at the Olympics, the Karhu Fusion 2.0 was spotted. This is probably due to the comfort that the Finnish designers love to implement in Karhu shoes.

Of course, we at FRESHCOTTON have other Karhu shoes that are special. Those sneakers are definitely also worth checking out!
