ABOUT MOON BOOT
Retrofuturistic, innovative, iconic: Moon Boot's design has a heritage rooted in 1969, the year Giancarlo Zanatta founded the Tecnica Group from his father Oreste's shoe factory. From a vocation dedicated to the world of sportswear, Moon Boot managed to create an instantly recognizable and strongly identifiable shoe model. The shape of the sole and the distinctive lacing have given Moon Boot the status of the ultimate ski boot, making them a unique type of shoe.
From the beginning, the mission has always been clear: to celebrate a universe of experimentalism in finding cutting-edge design forms and techniques that pay homage to the brand's heritage. Over time, Moon Boot has become increasingly modular and bold, rewriting the aesthetic of flagship models such as the “Icon” and offering a range of reboots in bright colors (gold, silver, pink, sunflower yellow, military green and even a reflective Reflex version) and contemporary approach designs such as Light Low Nylon, Pumps Nylon and Mules.
Whether in the mountains, in the snow or on the city sidewalk, the water-repellent uppers and soles of the various Moon Boot models adapt to every environment and personal need.
Through a long process of stylistic changes and evolutions, Moon Boot left its mark on Italian product design. Eventually the model was exhibited in the Louvre, among the 100 symbols of 20th-century design. Today it is part of the permanent exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Milan Triennial.
