La Sportiva offers high quality footwear with a track record of superior quality. Read more
La Sportiva manufactures most of its products at their modern, state-of the art manufacturing and warehouse facility. Most of their rock shoes and mountaineering boots are fully made in Italy at these premises.
La Sportiva Italy has always maintained a passion for the outdoors, especially the mountains and this attitude is always reflected in the designs that are produced by the company.
In addition, their design process takes an innovative approach with a modern outlook by performing extensive research on how to create the best products for customers while actively seeking out ways to reduce negative impacts. The La Sportiva factory is small and is the creative workspace for just 150 employees, something that is virtually unheard of these days in footwear.
While other companies have chosen to cut costs and quality and focus on competitiveness, resulting in outsourced production, the factory has not changed to reflect these trends. Located in Ziano di Fiemme, a small mountain village in the heart of the Italian dolomites, this footwear tradition lives on.
