The famous ducks

KIELCE SPORT - ZIMA

The Targi Kielce’s KIELCE SPORT - ZIMA exhibition has become famous for the fact that it brings together the sports and outdoor business sector leaders. This year’s exhibition will also include the world-famous “duck”.

The Rubber Duck brand was founded in Denmark in 2005; the creation was trigged by nostalgic longing for childhood. The inventor - Eik Braun Ottosen’s original idea was to make shoes in the fashion the shoes he used to wear as a child. And thus warm and light rubber-soled shoes came into being. The first batch instantly vanished from the market and the Rubber Duck became a smash hit not only in Scandinavia, but also in the whole Europe and the USA. The shoes are also popular among the big-name stars such as Alicia Silverstone, Andie McDowell or Geri Halliwell.

The secret behind the success is simple – shoes combine a jogging-type shock-absorbing rubber sole with a warm upper part of the shoe. Rubber Duck is lined inside with water proof membrane that protects your feet against moisture. Not only do the snowloggers astound you with the diversity of colours and models, but they also leave a duck-print when you walk in snow.
