From the US sports fire to the global lifestyle brand: So we could summarize the Kangaroos history briefly and crisply. But of course we would like to give a few more insights into our brand world. After all, we are damn proud that Kangaroos, as a co-founder of the sneaker market, has grown to one of the most famous sneakers worldwide since the eighties. With a level of awareness of over sixty percent, Kangaroos is one of the top 10 sports shoe brands in Germany.

It all started in 1979 with him, Bob Gamm. Passionate jogger and architect from Saint Louis, USA. It was he who missed his running shoes a small bag to accommodate his key. The 'Pocket' is still the essential feature of every pair of Kangaroos shoes - The Original Shoes with Pockets! In addition, the kangaroo has also been preserved as a likeable brand carrier since the very beginning.
No question: The origin of Kangaroos is in sports. After Bob Gamm made the Kangaroos Pocket a breakthrough, numerous sports teams found access to the brand and the products. From the sports fire we continued to develop to the lifestyle fire. We have always preserved our brand core over the years. Activate and reinterpret the US spirit from the very beginning.
We look forward to the success of numerous collaborations with trendy stores, artists and top brands. This makes Kangaroos the jump into the coolest sneaker first worldwide. From New York via Frankfurt to Berlin: We are where the fashion and sneaker heart beats.
The Heritage and Collabo models presented in our partner stores are known and desired beyond the sneakers scene: Kanye West, which has also worn his Patta X Kangaroos Woodhollow Hiking boots, was one of the most prominent straps in our shoes to the Louis Vuitton Show.
