About SKORA Store

Like many revolutionary ideas, SKORA was born of necessity. After a blown IT band, 18 months of rehab and thousands of dollars in orthotics and new shoes, SKORA founder David Sypniewski came to the realization that if he wanted a running shoe that allowed him to run and love his run again he did have to make it himself. It was during this search for a pain free run that David discovered the virtues of barefoot running. When his foot was allowed to strike the ground with the whole foot instead of the heel, he could run longer with less pain with a greater sense of stabilizing ground feel. SKORA is the result of a 12 year journey to craft a better running shoe one that incorporates the best of what nature intended with the best of what technology can enhance. Rather than look for features to add, we look for features to remove. We believe that the best shoe is one that complements the human body and allows it to perform naturally.
