Jim,

That is great news, I love to hear feedback like that, and I am glad that I found your post in the first place so we could connect.

I think the Kuru name has some Japanese background to it as well, it means something like Cool in Japanese.

If I had to pack only one pair of shoes, I’d wear my most comfortable walking shoes and pack my Sperry Topsiders. My walking shoes are relatively heavy and lace up so it’s OK if your feet swell sitting for hours on a plane. My Sperry Topsiders are conventional dark brown moccasins with white soles. The Sperrys have an amazingly comfortable arch support for a boat shoe, you don’t need socks, they look smashing, and they last forever!

Follow up…

I bought a pair of Kuru Major Browns not long after this topic ran. I think they are some of the best shoes I’ve worn, for the short time I’ve had them, they are wearing well. Light, comfortable, quality construction, easy to pack and kinda cool looking too. I will be buying more from the Kuru brand

Weird name, sounds more Swahili then Finnish ha

I either wear a pair of my running shoes or a pair of skater shoes. Comfy and practical.
