Requested by pro athletes for the locker room, we designed an open-back recovery shoe built on the proven Revive platform. This minimal style delivers recovery and protection to everyday moments, in the locker room and beyond.
Step-in simplicity. High-performance recovery.
The Revive OB is the product of research-backed design, directly informed by the locker room needs of professional athletes across the NFL, NHL, MLB, and NBA.
Born in the locker room, where greatness begins.
The OB (Open-Back) provides enhanced recovery for shorter length transitions and relaxed activity. The Revive has complete recovery benefits for all day wear and full active use.

"I bought a pair of the OG KANEs about two years and they finally wore out from daily use. Ended up seeing these when I went back online, and seemed like a no brainer. Love them! Great for walking the dogs or running errands. Going to still buy another pair of the original version for longer distances."
"Well I had about 23 pairs of the regular kanes , and I unfortunately have a bunion and hammer toe problem. Currently trying To sell all my original kanes, very sad, so I tried a size up in the open back and love them!! I already have 2 pairs, hoping to get more!!"
"I absolutely love my new Kane slides! I run 3-6 miles a day on top of workouts and this recovery shoe has changed the game for me! I love them!"
"Wow. Saw lots of ads on Instagram and I've always been a Crocs guy. It's hard for me to even say this, but they're more comfortable than Crocs. Where Crocs are very loose fitting, these fit very much like a quality shoe. I typically wear 9 1/2 (sometimes a 10) but followed the recommendation and ordered the lower size. The 9 fits like a glove. Fits perfect with or without socks. They feel great. Definitely won't be my last pair of Kanes"
"I wish I would’ve known about these shoes sooner. I don’t know how I live without them. I bought another pair that has a Back as well and enjoy them, especially after my workouts but all the time."
"I bought two pair of these for my husband and son. They absolutely love them and say that they are the most comfortable shoes ever. My husband has a very bad leg after ankle fusions, and my son sprained an ankle years ago hiking. Both of them say that these shoes really take the edge off of their pain. The shoes are a really, really great color too. I also bought them in black for both of them. Wonderful shoes. Buy them!"
"I like mine so much that I had to buy a pair for my husband… then my brother… And my sister. We all love them and they are more comfortable than my tennis shoes. I usually hurt after cooking all day in the kitchen or working, and now I don’t have joint pain like I did before. Worth the money."
"Most reliable, durable shoe while providing the needed support through a 8-10hour shift in construction. They may not be conventional for construction but, on the hot summer days they provide the coolness and ability to soak them with water and cool off, while providing everything you need in a shoe."
"My athletic days are over, but not my honey do lists, or working 12hr shifts running on hospital floors, being 100lbs overweight doesn't help either however I've been wearing the kanes since I got them and so far I'd have to say they are impressive. I've been wearing crocs and hokas for many years and so far I think the kanes are really comfortable not as spongy as the crocs and hokas but cushioned enough for a fat old part to spend 14hrs in without limping home at the end of the day"
"I waited for months to buy a pair of Kane shoes. I kept pushing it off and pushing it off and now I'm mad I did. This is the best pair of recovery shoes I've ever owned and I continue to go back to them for every day wear as well. I can't quit putting them on my feet whenever I can and I highly recommend any pair of Kane shoes but I have truly fallen in love with the OB pair. Highly highly highly recommend."
