Our purpose: keep you moving

Footwear engineered to reduce running injuries.

"Every year, up to 80% of runners get injuries. At MOVV, we keep you in the zone."

Nikolai Christensen, CEO and Founder of MOVV

Meet the Founder

Meet Nikolai Christensen – the mind behind MOVV. With over 20 years in footwear, he's spent his career at major performance footwear companies, always focused on creating shoes that actually work for people who move.

But here's the thing – Nikolai noticed something wasn't right in the running world. Too many runners getting hurt, too many people giving up on something they love. So he created MOVV to fill that gap.

It's simple really: better shoes, fewer injuries, more people staying active. That's what drives Nikolai and the whole MOVV team.

Why MOVV Exists

We started MOVV because we believe running shouldn't hurt. It should keep you moving, keep you happy, keep you healthy.
That's why we engineer every detail to work with your body. Even our logo isn't just a logo – it's a functional part of the shoe. Because when you can run without getting injured, you can keep doing what you love. And that's what matters.

What Makes Us Different

Most running shoes try to fix everything. We focus on what matters – keeping you injury-free. While others chase trends, we co-create with real runners and team up with leading movement experts who actually understand how you move. No gimmicks, just smart engineering based on real experience.

Our Scandinavian approach is simple: form follows function. Every curve, every material choice exists for one reason – to work with your body, not against it.The result? Shoes that let you run your way, at your pace, without the pain.

Toxic-Free Running Shoes

At MOVV, we prioritize our runners' well-being by using safe materials. We're constantly fighting to keep all MOVV products PFAS-free. PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are synthetic chemicals known for their water and stain resistance but are harmful due to their persistence in the environment and potential health risks.

By eliminating PFAS, we ensure our products are safer for our customers. Our commitment is backed by rigorous testing from an independent agency, ensuring our shoes meet the highest health and environmental standards.
