Zamberlan: Your Passion, Our Mission

For more than 40 years, Zamberlan has been distributing to worldwide markets and today more than 90% of its production is destined for export to 50 countries around the globe. The company was first founded by Giuseppe Zamberlan just after the World War One, from his deep passion and purpose towards his local mountain range, The Piccole Dolomiti, often known as the Small Dolomites. Giuseppe understood that the poor performance of the existing outsoles, made from leather and iron studs, was limiting mountaineers ability. Therefore, Giuseppe strove to support and develop the ideas of Vitale Bramani, the founder of Vibram Rubber. From this partnership, Zamberlan became the first ever brand to use an all over Vibram outsole, and it has been growing ever since. Today, it is the turn of the third generation of Zamberlan family to manage the Italian footwear company. Brother and sister Marco and Maria Zamberlan both have inherited the same love of the mountainside, and strive to enhance the range of outdoor products on offer. Impressively the company continues to handcraft it's traditional models in Italy, in the same factory opened up by Giuseppe nearly 90 years earlier. As a result, the company is recognised worldwide for it's comfort, fit and striking Italian design.
