Description

Its own timeline starts in 1963 and records later growth into ski boots and outdoor shoes, followed by additions to the brand group. Tecnica Group is the company behind the Tecnica brand, rather than a separate team or event sponsor. Claims about comfort or sporting performance of particular products are the group's own and vary by model.

La Sportiva

La Sportiva is an Italian mountain sports brand that makes climbing, mountaineering, hiking and trail running shoes and clothing. It was born in 1928, when Narciso Delladio hand-crafted wood and leather boots for lumberjacks and farmers in the Fassa and Fiemme valleys of the Dolomites. After the war, demand led him to hire more workers and the name "Calzoleria Sportiva" spread beyond the valleys. The company is based in Ziano di Fiemme and still produces its boots and shoes in the Fiemme Valley.

Scarpa

SCARPA is a family-owned Italian maker of technical footwear founded in 1938 near the Dolomites. It produces shoes and boots for mountaineering, trekking, hiking, climbing, trail running and skiing; the Parisotto family bought the company in 1956 and later expanded it abroad. Its history identifies specialist ski and high-altitude boots among earlier innovations, while the brand's claims about durability and firsts remain its own account.
