The main problem at that time was that the same shoes used for skiing were used for walking. It was in the small town of Montebelluna that the <strong>idea of the ski boot<\/strong> began to be thought about and later designed. In the mid-twentieth century some very popular and important companies today, such as Nordica, Munari and Dolomite, began to offer a wide range of sports shoes and boots, and it was precisely the 1956 <strong>Olympic Games in Cortina<\/strong> that brought these companies and in particular Montebelluna to be one of the most important centers of production of sports footwear, and not only, in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"438\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/shoestechnologies.exum.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/dolomite-homepage-slideshow-banner-fw24-54-high-fg-gtx-wmn_2077788-1024x438.jpg\" alt=\"Montebelluna | shoestechnologies\" class=\"wp-image-19626 lazyload\" title=\"\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/shoestechnologies.exum.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/dolomite-homepage-slideshow-banner-fw24-54-high-fg-gtx-wmn_2077788-1024x438.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/shoestechnologies.exum.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/dolomite-homepage-slideshow-banner-fw24-54-high-fg-gtx-wmn_2077788-300x128.jpg 300w, https:\/\/shoestechnologies.exum.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/dolomite-homepage-slideshow-banner-fw24-54-high-fg-gtx-wmn_2077788-768x329.jpg 768w, https:\/\/shoestechnologies.exum.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/dolomite-homepage-slideshow-banner-fw24-54-high-fg-gtx-wmn_2077788-1536x658.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/shoestechnologies.exum.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/dolomite-homepage-slideshow-banner-fw24-54-high-fg-gtx-wmn_2077788-1100x471.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/shoestechnologies.exum.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/dolomite-homepage-slideshow-banner-fw24-54-high-fg-gtx-wmn_2077788-600x257.jpg 600w, https:\/\/shoestechnologies.exum.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/dolomite-homepage-slideshow-banner-fw24-54-high-fg-gtx-wmn_2077788-20x9.jpg 20w, https:\/\/shoestechnologies.exum.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/dolomite-homepage-slideshow-banner-fw24-54-high-fg-gtx-wmn_2077788.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">&#8220;Dolomite&#8221; boots<br>Photo credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dolomite.it\/it\/it\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.dolomite.it\/it\/it\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dolomite website <\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">In the same year, another event that helped increase the fame on Montebelluna&#8217;s boots was when Austrian skier <strong>Toni Sailer<\/strong> won all three alpine ski races with a boot model produced by Calzaturificio Munari on his feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The paradise of sports footwear<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">In and around Montebelluna, <strong>65%<\/strong> of the world&#8217;s production of ski boots and <strong>80%<\/strong> of motorcycle footwear is made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Shoes are also produced for soccer, cycling, basketball, tennis, city and much more demonstrating that production is not exclusively sectoral on one sport or context.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">On this broad territory Montebelluna has been adept at capitalizing on the strategic location being close to raw material supply areas such as hides and from major markets near the areas of the Dolomites and the northwestern Alps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A museum to tell its story<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">In 1984 a group of local entrepreneurs founded a <strong>museum<\/strong> in Montebelluna with the desire to highlight the history and knowledge in the footwear field of this area.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">To this day, the permanent exhibition has more than <strong>400 pieces<\/strong> that represent the history of this reality in the province of Treviso.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Among the most iconic exhibits we find the first written testimony from the early 19th century in which we learn how shoemakers of the time paid taxes to the municipality showing how their work was fully recognized. Also in the museum we can find one of the first models of ski boots from the late 1930s, the original footwear, made by &#8220;La Dolomite,&#8221; that helped Ardito Desio in 1954 <strong>conquer K2<\/strong>, and a gallery with countless shoes worn by great champions of various disciplines all autographed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">In order to preserve and tell the story of these lands, the <strong>Sportsystem Foundation<\/strong> was born from the fusion of an association and the Museum of the boot and sports footwear.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/shoestechnologies.exum.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/01_fondazione_sportsystem_esposizione-min-edited.jpg\" alt=\"Montebelluna | shoestechnologies\" class=\"wp-image-19628 lazyload\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.7786561264822134;width:840px;height:auto\" title=\"\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/shoestechnologies.exum.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/01_fondazione_sportsystem_esposizione-min-edited.jpg 900w, https:\/\/shoestechnologies.exum.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/01_fondazione_sportsystem_esposizione-min-edited-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/shoestechnologies.exum.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/01_fondazione_sportsystem_esposizione-min-edited-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/shoestechnologies.exum.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/01_fondazione_sportsystem_esposizione-min-edited-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/shoestechnologies.exum.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/01_fondazione_sportsystem_esposizione-min-edited-20x11.jpg 20w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Sportsystem Foundation Museum<br>Photo credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/fondazionesportsystem.com\/museo\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/fondazionesportsystem.com\/museo\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">fondazionesportsystem website <\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Among its main objectives, we would like to emphasize that this Foundation wants to create and promote initiatives, particularly of an educational and cultural nature, to contribute to the growth of the industrial and entrepreneurial culture of these places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">With programs to update skills and research, the Foundation promotes the development of a sustainable vision by also collaborating with universities and public bodies to be a meeting point for researchers, specialists, insiders and visitors from all over the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/CqngYbrIEjm\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

The use of three different plastic hardnesses, which are soft, medium and hard, allows the cuff to protect the foot and leg while offering comfort to the skier and, at the same time, the proper functioning of the boot. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Over the years, soles have become a decidedly important element and one that receives a great deal of attention in the landscape of the touring market, which is why Nordica, again in the Unlimited boot series, has used a <strong>Michelin sole<\/strong> that can offer excellent grip in the most challenging terrain, safety and precision to allow anyone to enjoy the beauty of skiing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">This sole also places attention toward sustainability, as it is not glued to the boot but is screwed in such a way that it can be replaced when worn out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"su-youtube su-u-responsive-media-yes\"><iframe width=\"600\" height=\"400\"

frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media; picture-in-picture\" title=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Another reality that has its roots in Montebelluna is definitely <strong>Dolomite<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Founded in 1897 by the intuition of Giuseppe Garbuio whose name is linked above all to the famous boots that were used for the Italian expedition on <strong>K2<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">It was precisely this expedition in July 1954 that consecrated the brand as one of the best in mountaineering equipment, also because K2, despite not being as high as Everest, is much steeper, more dangerous and with more extreme weather conditions to the point of being called the &#8220;wild mountain.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">For years reaching the summit of this mountain has been a dream of many explorers, such as for <strong>Mike Horn<\/strong>, recognized as one of the greatest adventurers of our time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Horn, along with a friend and Swiss guide Fred Roux attempted the feat of climbing K2 and succeeded, and Dolomite was the brand that supported him in this adventure with some of their footwear such as the <strong>multi-talented Veloce GTX shoe<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div

class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A story born from innovation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Montebelluna has been the place now for centuries where the tradition and work of those shoemakers from the 1300s has been carried on, managing to combine the needs associated with the mountain territories with the passion of making original and unique footwear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Thanks to how this history has been passed down and the method of work here, today Montebelluna is one of the most important places for the production of sports equipment, especially for the mountains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-cyan-bluish-gray-color has-text-color has-medium-font-size\"><strong>You may also be interested in the following
