Manufacturer's Description
KangaROOS were invented back in the day when phone booths were on every corner and a call cost a single coin. That was 1979--a great year for those who remember it. Architect and designer Robert Gamm was a runner, and he wanted a place to stash his house key and his change when he went for a run. Ahhh, necessity: the mother of invention. He created sneakers with a pocket, called them KangaROOS and patented an energy return technology that was researched and tested by NASA. Sports stars Walter Payton, Ozzie Smith, and Clyde Drexler sported ROOS and helped spread the word. Fast-forward to today: KangaROOS are better than ever. Classic kicks or sleek new racers--every shoe still has a pocket. Ever inspired by their roots in authentic performance, ROOS is dedicated to the fusion of fashion, colour, and athletic style. Your shoes tell the world a lot about you, your individuality, your style, your mood, your colour...So go on, change your shoes, and change your mood. Take on the world when you rock your ROOS.

Customer Reviews

Comfort & Joy
I bought these primarily to wear to work; I needed a lower heel/style as I walk to work and wear same shoes in work so they needed to be stylish as well as comfortable ... sometimes you cannot get both. I love shoes and definately would never wear anything frumpy or dowdy and sometimes have to compromise comfort for style (sad, I know!) These tick all the right boxes for me though as they look good, especially under trousers, but are SO comfortable, even from first wear (I am prone to blisters, chaffing, rubbing with every pair of shoes or boots I buy .... not these though!) I feel like I am bouncing down the street in them, I cannot impress how comfy they are. And the velcro strap means they can be as loose or tight as required.

I would buy another pair without hesitation.

super shoes
These shoes are fantastic. Comfy and very stylish. A lovely feature with the slanting strap. True sizing. They look just as great under trousers as with a skirt. Can be worn anytime, both as casual or smart. Admired by other people.

Would make great School Shoes
I bought these shoes as Kangaroo's are so comfortable and they didn't disappoint.
What I did not preempt though, was that they look a bit like school shoes and I feel a bit self conscious wearing them with a skirt. They remind me of my daughters shoes when she was just 7 years old.
