This year we are celebrating a very special anniversary: 45 years of KangaROOS!
Since our founding in 1979, the sneaker world has been shaped by our innovative designs and our legendary pocket feature. We proudly look back on almost five decades of style, functionality and passion for footwear.
To mark our 45th anniversary, we not only want to say thank you, but also surprise you with an exclusive Anniversary Special. But before we get to the details, let's take a look at the brand's unique history and highlights.
KangaROOS - The story behind the cult labelThe story began with a simple but ingenious idea: founder Bob Gamm, a passionate runner, wanted to design a shoe that could do more than just look good. He was looking for a sneaker that was both functional and practical and had room for his house keys while jogging. The result was the first sneaker with the famous small side pocket - the "Pocket."
Kangaroos are known for their "pouches", make big jumps and always move forwards, never backwards:
The brand name "KangaROOS" was born: The Original Shoes with Pockets.
In the 80s and 90s, KangaROOS sneakers experienced a real boom, especially in the sports sector, where they became known for their innovative functionality and collaboration with professional athletes. Today, we offer a wide range of models that are suitable for both sporting activities and casual wear.

The iconic pocket feature remains a core part of our designs, while new technologies and materials make our sneakers ever more comfortable and powerful.
