The fastest and lightest orienteering shoe on the market!

The VJ Bold Race is here!

The Bold Race is our most advanced orienteering shoe yet and it was designed with one goal in mind, to be the fastest and lightest racing shoe for orienteering.

Since the Bold Race is intended for racing, its last is precisely fitting racing last, making it feel like it’s a part of the racer themselves. Together with the shoe’s one-piece upper, VJ's innovative Fitlock-system offers an optimal fit for the shoe by locking the foot from the arch. It also protects the arch from the impacts the foot is facing while running.

The advanced midsole is made of ultralight and energy returning material that will squeeze out every extra second you need in your race performance. In addition, the sole features an energy returning RacePlate that also protects the ball of the foot from sharp rocks and protruding sticks.

The Bold Race features the same Soft Heel technology as seen in Bold X, which reduces pressure from the heel bone and Achilles tendon and makes the heel fit like a glove.

The Superior Contact -outsole features 13 star-shaped carbon steel studs that ensure grip on slippery roots, moss and leaves you come across in the forest.

VJ Bold Race is truly the most advanced racing shoe for orienteering, and it is for those who want to exceed their limits and expectations!

·        Please note that the Bold Race is a superlight, pure performance orienteering shoe and the lifespan of the product will be significantly shorter than on our other orienteering models.

Almost perfect

I've been using the show about 10 times under various conditions and I can completely agree that they are very light and fast. The fit is quite tight but perfect for my feet and after a couple of races the shoes become part of your feet and you almost forget that you are wearing them during the race. The grip is fantastic also in the wet autumn forest in Finland and it works fantastic on other terrain types, too. I have used many VJ models before but the Bold Race is definitely the best orienteering shoe right now. I can't tell much about the durability after so short time of use but it seems that the shoe is built to face quite rough conditions, too. If there's something to complain I think if you're using regular shoelace knots they open very easily so it's better to learn the appropriate way to bind the laces with the well-known orienteering knot or get the laces wet before binding them but that's really a minor issue if an issue at all. I recommend the shoe for everyone who needs an orienteering shoe he can trust in all conditions.
