In the 1960s, two Canadian brothers Harold and Morton Baker launched one of Canada’s first full-service footwear distribution companies, the baker shoe company. The company sold a variety of other brands for the first decade but then in 1971 Viking was born.
In the summer of 1970, Harold Baker's daughter came back from a European trip with a pair of cork footbed sandals. Intrigued, Harold tracked down a factory in Spain who made these sandals and persuaded the owner of the factory to make it for him. They called it Viking by FussForm in the beginning but eventually dropped the added name and called it simple: Viking. Better known today as Viking sandals.
Around 2000, Viking sandals' manufacturer in Spain closed down and the new owners at the time who bought Baker shoe company, moved production to a world class factory in China where 'til this day all Viking sandals are proudly made.
Since that very first launch almost 50 years ago, 3 million pairs of sandals have been sold and worn in north America, making it truly part of the comfort revolution
