Traction Built for the Climb
The Valdor's Tred outsole takes its cues from an all-terrain tire: an aggressive tread pattern moves debris, while the 90-degree defined heel and ladder locks dig in for surer footing when you're working an incline. Oil- and slip-resistant compounding keeps you steady on slick or greasy ground.

What makes the Tred outsole good for logging and hillsides?
It's modeled on an all-terrain tire, with an aggressive debris-shedding tread plus a 90-degree defined heel and ladder locks that bite in for better traction when you're working on an incline.

Brush off dirt and sap, wipe the leather clean, let the boot dry away from heat, and condition the full-grain leather regularly. The Goodyear PVC welt can be resoled by a cobbler when the Tred outsole wears through.
