Take your Salewa shoes on excursions big and small

Salewa Shoes

High performance training, walking and mountain boots and shoes can also be fashionable and colorful as can be seen in the Stylight collection of Salewa shoes. This German company was founded in Munich in 1935 by Josef Liebhart, producing rucksacks and ski poles for the army during the Second World War. By the 1950's the brand was a recognized designer and manufacturer of mountain sport supplies, becoming globally known when it provided equipment for an Andes expedition in 1955. The mountain eagle logo was added in 1979 and is now a recognizable mark of quality.

Walking, climbing, trekking – those that love adventuring in the mountains needn’t grapple with blisters, cold feet or insufficient grip. Salewa shoes are your buddy in the mountains – you can rely on them for both advanced rock climbing and relaxed walking tours. Salewa has already worked with renowned mountaineer Reinhold Messner, and their know-how is immediately noticeable in their shoes and clothing. What makes the shoes so suitable for outdoor use? Let Stylight tell you:

Reliable Grip

Salewa’s mountain boots are extremely lightweight and provide you with reliable grip on every mountain tour. A raised shaft means that they’re not only robust, they’re also suitable for use with crampons. Laces on the front of the boot make sure you’re in control when rock climbing. The interplay between lacing, a flexible sole and a firm heel flexure protects the foot, yet allows enough movement to scale even the highest of peaks. Salewa shoes come with treaded soles, ideal if the terrain is steep and uneven.

Functional Materials

Made from breathable suede or synthetic materials, Salewa shoes can be worn for the whole day. The Gore-Tex finish can withstand the changeable mountain weather, and even those people who walk long distances won’t be able to smell sweaty feet. Salewa is making sure they become a thing of the past – special high-tech features protect against unpleasant odours.

Striking Design

Salewa shoes are eye-catching even amongst the darkest mountains, as they come in bright and neon colours. The colour palette ranges from purple to mint green and back to luminous pink. Shoelaces, velcro fastenings and soles all come in contrasting tones. Since these boots and low shoes come in colour-blocking looks, there’s a lot of room for choice when it comes to the colour of your clothes, and you can also choose bright colours when it comes to accessories like rucksacks and hats. For those who like a more reserved look, choose black shoes with coloured accents on the shoe laces or soles.

And you don’t have to wear Salewa shoes for extreme sports: Lace-up shoes made from cotton or linen are brilliant to wear during a walk. Sporty low shoes offer support during excursions and leather walking boots are also suitable for traditional costumes.

Go for it! Shoes by Salewa ring in the outdoor season and get us in the mood for adventure.
