About Oru Kayak

Oru Kayak makes folding kayaks, sold direct to consumers through its own website. The kayaks are constructed from double-layer, UV-treated polypropylene using an origami-inspired folding design, allowing them to be assembled without tools and packed down to a compact, suitcase-sized form for storage or transport. The range covers several models, from small recreational boats suited to lakes and calm waters through to versions built for open ocean paddling and tandem use.

The brand targets people who want to kayak but lack storage space, a vehicle roof rack, or easy access to water, positioning its products as an alternative to traditional rigid kayaks. Oru Kayak sells kayaks, paddles and related accessories such as bags, packs and personal flotation devices directly to consumers online, with shipping within the contiguous United States and a stated warranty and return policy on its products.
