Born in the Finnish Forests – Refined to Perfection in Harsh Conditions
Familiar to many Finnish orienteers and runners, VJ was founded in 1981 when the development of a new type of orienteering shoe began in Orivesi, a town with a strong tradition in shoe and boot manufacturing.
Durability, Grip, and High Quality
The three cornerstones of VJ’s production – durable shoes that serve you for a long time, grip that ensures safety, and quality that impacts many aspects of the shoe.
