A classic boot for autumn and winter walks

Vallda Nordic Traction is a modern interpretation of the iconic Icebug boot Banff from 2001. A lightweight boot designed for autumn and winter walks, featuring a waterproof BUGdri membrane, thin fleece lining for warmth, and a BUGforce midsole that provides a smooth rolling stride. 

Easy on and off 

Vallda is built to simplify everyday life. With a zipper, elastic side panels, and double pull loops, it’s both quick and convenient to slip on – perfect for an active lifestyle. 

BUGforce midsole for insulation and comfort 

The relatively thick midsole offers soft cushioning, natural roll in each step, and effective insulation against ground chill. The result is a boot that feels just as comfortable on long walks as it does on short everyday errands. 

Scandinavian design with sustainable materials 

Inspired by Icebug’s Banff model, Vallda combines timeless aesthetics with today’s sustainability standards. The upper in recycled ripstop polyester offers durability, lightness, and a clean look, making the boot equally suitable for city streets and nature trails.
