VING NIRUN Crowned BEST OVERALL WINNER 2025 on the Global Stage

A historic milestone for Thai sports innovation.
VING NIRUN, a running sandal developed in Thailand, has been awarded BEST OVERALL WINNER 2025 — the highest honor from the prestigious Global Footwear Awards.

This global recognition confirms one powerful truth:
Thai innovation can compete — and win — at a true world-class level.

From a Real Running Problem to Global Recognition

VING was not born in a lab. It was born on the road.

During an overseas race, the founder faced a problem many runners know too well — traditional running shoes causing blisters, friction, and severe foot pain. As a last-minute solution, a simple running sandal was purchased. Unexpectedly, it made finishing the marathon possible.

That single experience became the spark behind VING NIRUN:
A sandal designed not just to walk in — but to truly run.

Why VING NIRUN Won BEST OVERALL WINNER

The Global Footwear Awards judges more than aesthetics. Products are evaluated on design excellence, innovation, and real-world performance.

VING NIRUN stood out in every dimension:

  • Designed for real running, not casual fashion

  • Supports natural foot movement and reduces impact stress

  • Functions as both Running Sandals and Recovery Shoes

  • Suitable for beginner runners and experienced athletes

  • Proven through real-world use, not just lab testing

The verdict was clear:
VING NIRUN is officially recognized as World-Class Sports Performance Gear.


Not Just Sandals — True Recovery Shoes for Runners

Over the past year, VING has gained strong attention both in Thailand and internationally — especially in Japan. Many users wear VING not only for running, but for concerts, long hours of standing, travel, and everyday life.

The feedback is consistent: “Comfortable for long hours. No foot pain.” That is the essence of true recovery footwear:

  • Helps feet recover after intense activity

  • Reduces accumulated fatigue

  • No pressure points, no blisters, no pain

This philosophy is embedded in the DNA of VING NIRUN.

The Core of Great Recovery Shoes

What defines real recovery footwear?

  • Supports foot recovery after heavy use

  • Reduces accumulated impact stress

  • No squeezing, no rubbing, no foot fatigue

This is exactly what VING NIRUN is built to deliver.

Breaking the Rules of Traditional Running Shoes

VING NIRUN does not aim to replace traditional running shoes.
Instead, it fills the gap they often leave behind.

  • After a run → feet need recovery

  • Beginner runners → want simplicity, not complexity

  • Everyday users → want comfort that supports an active lifestyle

VING connects Performance / Recovery / Lifestyle into one seamless experience.

WORLD-CLASS QUALITY. PROUDLY THAI.

This award is more than a brand achievement — it is a moment of pride for Thailand.

From a small idea born from a real problem, to standing on the global stage as BEST OVERALL WINNER 2025, VING NIRUN proves one thing clearly:

Great products don’t need to come from big countries.
They come from real understanding, real use,
and the courage to think differently.

Coming Soon: The New NIRUN — January 2025

VING NIRUN is entering its next chapter.

A new and improved version is coming —
designed to answer runners’ needs with even greater precision.

January 2025 — The new NIRUN is coming.
From Thailand to the world. And this is only the beginning of VING’s journey.
