Light and agile VJ BOLD KIDS orienteering shoe – Designed specifically for young orienteers. A specialist last for smaller feet ensures a great fit and support in rough terrain.

Grippy outsole

A combination of a grippy rubber compound and star studs to ensure maximum grip on any surface. Inspired by the car industry, VJ manufactures their metal studs from carbon steel with the star shape providing superior grip compared to a round stud thanks to the increased number of corners.

The upper is of soft and strong nylon and studs are made of carbon steel to ensure grip no matter the terrain. Orienteering with VJ Bold Kid’s is a lot of fun!

SHOE FIT SCALE

FITS NARROW 1 2 3 4 5 FITS WIDE

VJ have graded the fit on all shoes from 1 to 5 to help you find the perfect fitting shoe. Grade 1 represents most precise and narrow fit. On the other end of the scale grade, 5 has the widest fit.

The lower number on the scale, the narrower the fit ensures minimal movement of the foot which is essential when running fast on technical terrain. The shoes with the higher numbers on the scale will suit people with wider feet and those who want extra comfort. Wider fit is usually preferred on longer runs and races because feet tend to swell during longer distances.

VJ began in 1981, when a Finnish shoemaker and orienteer could not find the right shoe for the sport. He built his own shoe factory in Orivesi, launching the brand there. It set out to build shoes that could handle rough, wet and slippery terrain.

Orienteering shoes need to grip in constantly changing conditions, wet or dry, hard or soft ground. VJ built a 100% butyl rubber outsole to meet that demand. This material holds its grip even when the shoe is completely drenched. That matters, since orienteers often run an entire race in wet shoes. The brand also uses non-absorbent materials throughout the shoe, so repeated soaking and drying doesn't weaken the build.

Branches, rocks and constantly changing terrain put real strain on a shoe. Some models use aramid fibre uppers, five times stronger than steel, for extra protection. VJ also produces metal-studded models, built for icy, muddy or highly technical ground where extra bite matters. The Fitlock system locks the foot in place and supports the arch through demanding courses.

These features have helped VJ shoes win world championships across orienteering, trail running and OCR. At Compass Point, we stock the brand for orienteers who want proven grip and durability on tough terrain.
