Desperately want these to fit!
I love what Kane footwear can potentially offer and I desperately want to find a pair that properly fit. I wear a 10. 5 sneaker so (based on Kane's recommendation), I sized down to a 10 since they only come in whole sizes. I found my heel was slipping out the back quite a bit. So I returned the product and exchanged for a size 9. I knew that was going to be a gamble, and I lost. The 9's are too tight in the toe box. I'm expecting to exchange once more in hopes that the open heel model works for me. Otherwise, the purchasing, exchange, and shipping experience was excellent.
I wanted to like them, but. . .
I wanted to like these because they look cool but they do not work for me. Honestly, these shoes are far overpriced. They are made in a mold and unless your foot is the exact same dimensions as the mold, these will not be good for you. I've tried everything to break them in from wearing thick socks, to letting them sit in hot water, and even though they fit length and with wise, the top of the shoe is so uncomfortable. These shoes are very stiff and the fact they are marketed as a recovery shoe is a total joke. Most if not all running shoes have more cushion than these.
So far, so good.
I only dock a star because although they are light, they are kind of bulky. I’d also like to be able to wear them without socks - - but I cannot. I think they are too big and will rub my heel, but I am not sure a smaller size would fit with socks. I may try it next time.
That said - they feel good. I have achilles tendonitis and these provide comfort and my joints feel better. I also love that I can hose them down when dirty. Overall - I am happy with my purchase!
1/2 size
Wearing a 10. 5 I didn’t know if I should get an 11 or 10. Went to Dicks to try on both sizes. The 11 felt good but slip off my heel when walking. The 10 was tight but didn’t slip. I went online and bought a size 10. It is tight and feels ok for awhile but eventually my instep starts to feel sore. I have shoe stretchers in them now and that seems to help a little. Hope they become more comfortable in that I really like the shoes.
First day they very comfortable
First day they very comfortable to wear without socks. After that day, when we wore them without socks they caused my husband blisters. I am pretty disappointed with this purchase for my husband and I if I am being honest. We are on vacation and I specifically bought them to have them but we haven’t been able to wear them that much. I did throw the boxes away, not sure if I can return them.
Not as expected
These are replacing a worn pair of shoes similar to Crocs. I bought into the idea of the sugar cane. . .
I was expecting it to be softer, more malleable.
I swear a 10. 5 and these fit my foot sole perfect but the part of the shoe around the top of the foot is a close. . . i worry about rubbing. This material doesn't seem to give soooo. . .
I was hoping to use these as walking shoes .
No complaints. . . at all!
I left a similar review for my OB's, but I think it's just as important here. . .
I like to preface this by saying that Kanes, in general, came to me at a very important time. I’ve dealt with countless lower-body issues and injuries over the years, including ankle sprains, problems with the balls of my feet, plantar fasciitis, broken bones in my feet and legs, and, most recently, a toe sprain.
Being very active into my 40s, my body simply has more demands now and doesn’t bounce back as quickly as I’d like. Kanes offer something that’s extremely functional and supportive—and the fact that they actually look good is honestly a bonus.
I wear these everywhere. With socks. . . without socks, really anywhere I would wear a pair of sneakers/Berks. My feet and legs aren’t nearly as tired at the end of the day, and I’ve noticed fewer of those everyday aches and pains—something I think just about anyone my age would gladly take. Not to mention I get a lot of looks and compliments (even from the sales associates a my local running shop!).
If you haven’t tried these, or any of the other Kane styles (I’m up to four pairs now), you really should. They may not work for everyone, but if they work for you the way they’ve worked for me, you won’t regret it.
Great shoe for neuropathy and plantar fascitis!
Unfortunately, I suffer from neuropathy due to side effects from cancer treatment. I've lost a lot of feeling in my feet and have plantar fascitis, so walking barefoot on hard surfaces is uncomfortable. That's where Kanes comes in!
I typically wear a shoe size 10. 5 wide, so I went with size 11. I only wear them inside the house.
The Revives are a little loose when wearing them barefoot but are very comfortable when wearing them with socks. They tend to "squeak" when I wear them without socks since the bottoms of my feet get sweaty. The pull tab is aesthetically cool, but it doesn't really help when I try to put on the shoe.
The Kanes have really improved my quality of life and I can walk around the house comfortably. I'm more confident going up and down the stairs since they provide great cushion and grip on hard surfaces, and I don't have to worry about them falling off like slides. Since I have neuropathy, I don't really feel the raised bumps on the insole, but it's not a big deal. They look cool and perform well.
The BEST shoe!
My fiance bought a pair for himself after trying several different shoes, soles, styles, etc. . and he has not had any foot pain since!
I trusted him and bought a pair for myself. I wore them ALL day to an amusement park and not once did my back ache 😳 I couldn’t believe it! It was also nice to simply remove my socks and go on a water ride without having to worry my feet will be wet until I take them off.
My 5 year old has 3 pair (he loves the colors) and is a runner. The soles are holding up very well.
Very easy to clean. I used soap and water and the dirt comes off like “easy peasy” is what my son says.
We are forever a Kane family and we found our ‘perfect’ shoe!
Comfy, Quirky, Awesome
These shoes are basically comfort with a personality! 😎 The cushioning feels ridiculously good, making them perfect for walking, running errands, or just kicking back. They’re lightweight, easy to slip on, and the roomy design keeps your feet feeling happy all day.
And let’s talk about the look—the white upper with that navy, red-speckled sole definitely stands out. They’re fun without trying too hard, and I’ve already gotten a few compliments.
Bottom line: Super comfortable, surprisingly stylish, and way more fun than your average pair of slip-ons. If your feet could give reviews, these would get 5 stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Outstanding shoe!
I am in love with these shoes! They are the first thing I put on after my workouts ( after a shower of course). I have also found them to be multi-functioning - they are great to wear when I take the four dogs out first thing in the morning and the grass is still wet with dew - I used to hate getting my sneakers wet and these shoes are a fantastic solution because they are water repellant and quick drying. I walk the dogs in them and know first hand that they are super easy to clean if you step in dog poop by mistake :-) I love them so much I just ordered another pair and told my co-workers about them.
Unbelievable!
I knew about Kane for several months before I decided to try them out. I thought it was just another ad from an “influencer” if I’m being honest! But after an intense month of a walking challenge at work, I felt like my feet weren’t feeling my best and none of my shoes brought me relief! I decided to bite the bullet and I wish I had bought them sooner!! They are so comfortable, I don’t take them off! I wear them to work and don’t have any discomfort in my 8 hour nursing shift. I wear them home and wear them to the gym! Such a good purchase!!
Comically crave worthy & impressive
I beat the hell out of my feet, so I figured "recovery shoes" were just influencer bait. You know, the same tier of nonsense as a kid with a rented supercar explaining wealth creation between TikToks.
An elite athlete friend tossed me a pair after a beach day. I laughed. . . then wore them. Bought a pair. Then two more.
Fair warning: don't buy them unless you're okay with every other shoe in your closet suddenly feeling like medieval punishment. Human feet are surprisingly petty once they've experienced comfort.
Highly Recommend!
Some of the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever had at such an affordable price for
Today’s market. Would recommend to anyone who spends time on their feet. I am a much larger former athlete trying to get back in shape and my weight can cause discomfort after training sessions or even spending a lot of time coaching on the sidelines. These have already been a game changer and will be a daily shoe for years to come. Already picking out the next few pairs to get in different color ways and models for year round use.
Recovery at its best!!
I was skeptical at first with the claims of a recovery shoe. I am a U. S. Army Veteran with lower leg injuries and these shoes have been a god send the last 6 months. They help with everyday walking and actually helps manage the pain to a more manageable level. If I would have had these after PT, might be in a different situation. They also give a military discount. I have bought 4 pair and plan to buy more. If you have a wide foot like me go up one size and you should have no problems.
“Kane Has My Back!” literally
I just want to say a huge thank you to the Kane team! Your shoes have helped me through recovery from back surgery—not just once, but twice. They are incredibly comfortable, supportive, and waterproof, and I honestly love everything about them.
I really appreciate the quality and thought that goes into your products. Thank you for making something that has genuinely made a difference in my recovery. Keep producing great products—I’ll continue to be a huge fan of Kane!
Awesome Product
ABSOLITELY LOVE THESE SHOES!!! I am a medical professional and can finally feel like my feet can breathe! These shoes are fantastic!! The advertising is off the charts!! They know how to target the audience and focus on what truly matters.
Most sneaker companies can advertise their “running shoes, arches etc. ”
Kane advertises all day comfort and they are 100% correct! If I am wearing a shoe 8+ hours a day, I do want my feet to be able to breathe.
A++++ Kane!!
These Half-Croc Beasts Are Straight-Up Kick-Ass
I’ve been a fan of Kane Footwear for a while, but these new Revive - Stars & Stripes pairs just raised the bar. Totally kick-ass. Super comfortable right out of the box, the colors pop, and that half-croc look mixed with the cushion is an absolute winner.
Whoever at the company decided this design was a good idea deserves a serious bonus. I’ll definitely be ordering more pairs.
And if you guys ever want to talk real supply-chain moves, hit me up — I’m your man.
