Discover the 100-year legacy of the Finnish brand Jalas
Founded in Finland in 1916, Jalas has focused exclusively on work footwear from the very beginning. Thanks to this narrow specialization, the brand can dedicate maximum attention to every detail – from developing new technologies and selecting top-quality materials to rigorous testing in demanding real-world conditions. Today, Jalas ranks among the global leaders in safety and work footwear and is part of the Swedish group Ejendals, which specializes in comprehensive hand and foot protection.
What makes Jalas exceptional is its long-standing emphasis on ergonomics, comfort, and safety. Unlike many brands that divide their focus across various categories of work gear, Jalas is devoted solely to footwear. As a result, all its research, development, and production capacities are dedicated to a single goal – creating the best work shoes on the market. This commitment leads to footwear that is extremely durable, technically advanced, and still comfortable enough for all-day wear.
Tempus is the bestseller, Exalter the most advanced
Jalas offers a full range of work footwear – from lightweight safety sandals and modern sneakers to low-cut and high-top models built for extreme conditions. No matter the type, all models share the same core values: quality, comfort, and functionality. One of the brand's strengths is the clear division of footwear into collections that combine similar features, materials, and technologies, making it easy for customers to find the perfect pair for their specific needs.
Among the most popular collections is Jalas Tempus – a line of modern, lightweight safety sneakers that quickly became a bestseller upon release. Their sporty look, low weight, and high protection level make them ideal for everyday use. For more demanding customers, there is the Jalas Exalter collection, which represents the most technically advanced footwear in the brand’s portfolio. Exalter combines top-tier materials, advanced ergonomics, and a high level of protection, making it suitable even for the most challenging working conditions.
