Aria 95

The Karhu brand was founded in 1916 under the name Ab Sport Artiklar Oy, which produced spears, discs and skis. Aria 95 are inspired by the original running shoes from 1995. On the heel we can find the embossed "Finnsport" logo.

Imagine a strategy based on a smooth motion forward. Add to that the love of design, success, and the confidence to choose your own path. Then you get Karhu. The brand started in 1916 with a sports shop in the center of Helsinki. You could buy spears, skis, discs and running shoes here. The shoes were famous for their lightness and flexibility. The name Karhu in Finnish means bear. The letter M on the side of the sneakers symbolizes the Finnish word Mestari, which means champion.
