Valenki are the traditional Russian winter footwear. Valenki literally means, "made of felt". Valenki are made of wool felt. They are not water-resistant, they are very light, warm and are optimized for a snowy environment. As such, valenki are the footwear of choice for many Russians. Valenki are a part of the Russian army uniform.
