History
Founded in 1938 in Asolo, Italy, by Lord Rupert Guinness, Scarpa was later acquired by the Parisotto family in 1956. The company transitioned from traditional leather boots to pioneering technical footwear for climbing and skiing. It holds historical significance for introducing the first GORE-TEX boot and developing specialized plastic telemark skiing boots. Scarpa remains a central figure in the evolution of alpine equipment, influencing global standards for professional mountaineering and outdoor performance gear.
