SCARPA | Hiking boots for NZ’s back country

We all know how comfortable your footwear is can make or break a trip. Cold and wet feet, blisters, an incorrect fit – it all adds up to a miserable and sometimes, a dangerous time. By contrast, wear great fitting boots and you can keep going for days in comfort.

SCARPA has a great range of hiking boots, from traditional brown leather boots to lightweight flexible options. Read more below.


Why SCARPA

Innovation and tradition share equally deep roots at SCARPA, a family owned company with its headquarters and performance footwear manufacturing facilities in northern Italy, where it began in 1938.

It all starts with understanding the needs, because there are no solutions without this. The solutions have been, are and will still be, different, but always united by the strengths that allow SCARPA to be SCARPA: the guarantee of extreme comfort, improved performance and maximum durability of the products.

This is why SCARPA boots work so well in our New Zealand backyard, whether you’re on a hunting trip or a tramp to bag a peak; in the North, South or Stewart Islands.
