What are HIIT shoes?
HIIT shoes give you the right amount of support when performing high-intensity interval training, which includes jumping, running, squatting, lifting, climbing, and more. Thus, as a jack-of-all-trades in the footwear department, HIIT workout shoes offer sufficient stability for strength work and cushion your feet on landings.
They also provide unique features to satisfy the demands of other HIIT activities, such as wall exercises and climbing ropes. Given how intense and high-impact HIIT exercises are, you’ll need the best shoes for HIIT and weight training, like what we provide at KURU.
With excellent cushioning, stability, support, breathability, and responsiveness, KURU HIIT shoes are just as intense as HIIT exercises.

HIIT Shoe Care Tips
Even if you got the best shoes for HIIT, these will soon degrade if you don’t take good care of them Thus, follow these steps to help preserve your HIIT shoes’ quality:
- Practice footwear rotation. Do not rely on just one pair of HIIT shoes and wear them every day. Giving them time to rest will not only keep their durability and longevity but also help prevent the growth of bacteria and fungus.
- To remove microbes and germs and avoid cross-contamination, use disinfectant spray between uses.
- Do not wash your HIIT shoes in the washing machine to avoid any serious damage. Hand wash them instead, and use an old toothbrush or dry brush to eliminate any dirt from the uppers, midsole, and outsole. Let them air dry while the insoles are removed.
- Never put them in the dryer as they’re not built to withstand such type of heat. Store your HIIT workout shoes in a cool, dry environment. Regardless if you’re storing them on your closet shelf or their original box, there should be enough ventilation while keeping them away from heat and moisture.
FAQs
-
Should I wear running shoes for HIIT?
While beginners often wear running shoes when going to the gym, these shoes are not designed for HIT. You need HIIT shoes as you’ll be moving forward, backward, up and down, side-to-side, and more.
-
What shoes are best for HIIT training?
Shoes that are perfect for HIIT training are the ones with extraordinary support, stability, cushioning, comfort, breathability, and shock absorption.
-
Do I need HIIT shoes?
If you’re only doing sprinting for your HIIT exercise, running shoes will do. However, if you’re performing cross-training, which is usually the case, you need HIIT shoes to have a solid base for multi-directional movements, reduced toe drop, and enough cushioning.
-
Are crossfit shoes good for lifting?
Yes, they’re good for lifting. They offer enough stability required for effective and safe lifting. The soles also have sufficient grip and traction. However, some shoes belonging to the category of cross-training may compromise lifting benefits a little to accommodate rope climbing, running, and other improvements.
-
Do you sell replacement insoles or sock liners?
We are happy to offer free replacements on ULTIMATE INSOLES for the lifetime of the shoe. While we don’t offer inserts as a separate purchase, you can always contact a KURU GURU for a free replacement if your ULTIMATE INSOLES wear out or suffer damage.

Three Layers of Support
At KURU, we pride ourselves on our unique approach to shoe design. We believe that shoes should be shaped to fit the natural contours of your feet, which is why we create every pair in three distinct support layers, not just an insole.
Our revolutionary ergonomic design starts with a curved footbed and adds unparalleled triple-layer support that includes shock-absorbing KURUCLOUD, heel-cupping KURUSOLE, and arch-supporting ULTIMATE INSOLES. The result? Shoes that are so comfortable you’ll stop thinking about your feet.
