Per the nominations of VCs and other top investors, the ARRIS team was excited to be named one of 13 sports startups poised to shake up the industry—the Business Insider article highlights total funding, what ARRIS does, and why it’s on the list.
“Insole innovation is long overdue,” said Michael Proman, partner of Scrum Ventures. “No disrespect to Dr. Scholl’s, but performance optimization requires a modern-day solution, and what Riley Reese and the team at ARRIS have pioneered is impressive. ARRIS produces smarter, lighter, stronger, and more sustainable products at scale.”

“ARRIS is also promising because it transcends sports; its latest $34 million funding round is focused on expanding into the aerospace and consumer sectors.”
Proman’s nomination also highlighted how the team is gearing up to launch its first DTC footwear product, AURORRA By ARRIS, in addition to its continued work with major footwear brands.
