THE KIGO SHEL & STAR HAVE BEEN
REPLACED BY THE EDGE & CURV.

(A few models of shel & star are still available.
Get them before they're gone!)

The edge and curv offer improved fit &
performance for active & daily wear:

–   Added stretch & room throughout
–   Antimicrobial treatment
–   A fixed heel loop for pulling on & off
–   Hookless the toe box

The kigo shel is a slip on style shoe designed for active men and women. Full foot coverage keeps dirt, sand and other debris out. That coverage, combined with a thin, high-grip rubber outsole and toe bumper make the kigo shel an ideal minimalist footwear option for trail running, hiking or walking in wet conditions.

A low cut foothole creates a full range of motion for the ankle, reducing the chance of blisters and improving the barefoot feel.

Weighing in at only 5oz per shoe, the kigo shel provides superior barefoot feel and portability.

Removable, contoured EVA insoles provide support when you want it, or take them out for superior ground feel.

A traditional shape keeps the toes together, offering a familiar shoe feel and keeping feet warm in cold conditions.

A slim look makes the kigo shel as stylishly appropriate for everyday wear as for athletic endeavors.

Six color combinations provide versatility - all begin with grey and are accented with contrast stitching in orange, green, white or black, or with panels of orange or green.

The kigo shel is the perfect combination of athleticism and style.

Please see the kigo footwear fit guide for assistance with selecting the best size.

Considering that it wasn’t originally intended as an athletic shoe, the shel has come
remarkably close to the perfect combination of design, comfort, and durability for minimalist
runners. I think it has tremendous potential to become the “one finger” alternative that many
barefooters are looking for, at a price point that is extremely attractive. (Running and Rambling)
