Rubber Duck SnowJoggers

Traditional winter boots may keep you warm and dry, but their clunkiness leaves little hope of outrunning the season's many perils, i.e., youth snowball gangs, and bloodthirsty yetis hellbent on destroying your credit. Fusing winter foot armor with performance, Rubber Duck.

Created in Denmark by a business student searching for "a creative outlet that would double as a positive influence on the global market", RD SnowJoggers're the bastard love-child of snow boots and running shoes, which never would have happened if all that boxed wine wasn't left in the mud room overnight. Atop their sneaker-like rubber/EVA plastic soles, Joggers get a cozy synthetic sheepskin interior, suede heels and toes, and Velcro closures on padded uppers, and're available in various fabrics/colors, like nylon in navy/silver/black/olive; futuristic shiny polyurethane in blue, silver, black, or white; and flannel in either traditional red or white, the choice of chaste virgin outdoorsmen who opt to just lumberjack off. Pumping winter performance into an even-more-sneakerish body, RD also transplants the sheep interior and suede accents onto quilted nylon and leather high-top uppers (featuring proper lace-up action) in its CombatJoggers, finally recognizing the under-served market of people who enjoy a good runner's high, and stomp ass.

RD doesn't limit its creativity to your feet, also vending accessories like scarves and shades, which come in two styles -- either one perfect for concealing your identity as you flee teary-eyed from deadly-accurate snowballs/declined credit cards.
