Scarpa: a history rooted in the Dolomites
It all began in Asolo, in the Venice region, when Rufo Scarpa founded a small artisan business dedicated to making mountain boots. High standards, attention to detail, and the pursuit of comfort quickly became the hallmarks of the company.
In the 1950s, Scarpa gained international renown by equipping renowned mountaineers. Since then, the brand has remained family-owned and independent, guided by the same vision: to produce the best possible shoes for all mountain adventures.
