The name Ahnu is derived from Celtic mythology, from the goddess of balance and well-being. The deity could accurately be described as an ancient version of our own “Mother Earth.”
The choice is both deliberate and appropriate, as their social and environmental commitment is incorporated in the foundation of every product and every business decision they make.
From the gold standard of factory certification (they are manufactured in one of only 31 footwear factories in the world with SA8000 accreditation), to the use of certified post-consumer recycled fibers in their catalogs and packaging, their commitment is visible throughout all aspects of their brand.
Their product goal is to achieve uncompromising performance by blending a modern aesthetic with the style, structure, and substance of the outdoor lifestyle. Ahnu emphasizes intuitive easy on/off technology and feature QuiteLight™ construction, a system that enables exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and superior comfort.
Finally, Ahnu believes that life should be balanced, responsible and fun. It’s the spirit they’ve put into this brand, and the way they hope people will live everyday.
