Viking Footwear is a Norwegian brand and retailer in the retail apparel and fashion sector, based in Oslo. The company traces its roots to 1920 when founder Peter Mathias Røwde began making rubber products to address Norway’s cold climate, and its boots soon served fishermen, foresters and other explorers. The business carries a tradition of craftsmanship and quality, producing footwear built to endure demanding conditions. Today the range targets outdoor enthusiasts and families, with products used on high mountains as well as in kindergartens. In March 2023 Viking expanded its line with the launch of Moomin rubber boots to address wet conditions. Based in the Oslo region, the company operates as a mid-sized player within the outdoor footwear market, emphasizing longevity and reliability.
