Made in Italy since 1929
Guiseppe Zamberlan (also known as “Bepi” for short), is the mastermind behind Zamberlan footwear. He began his career repairing shoes, which in turn developed into a career of making finely crafted boots. His passion for the trekking and the outdoors led him to search for better materials and more efficient construction methods of boot making to satisfy his need for ‘safer and easier’ movement throughout the mountains.
Zamberlan boots are quality tested for durability and performance. The Zamberlan company, which is situated at the foot of the Piccole Dolomiti, is an ideal testing ground for new products and ideas. It is within these mountains that new ideas for top quality boots are created and cultivated.
So after nearly 80 years of boot manufacturing, the Zamberlan Company is still a family run business, with the third generation actively taking part in all stages of design and production. At Zamberlan, they remain dedicated to their hand made boots and believe they will carry you well throughout your journey.

These are the most expensive boots that I have ever purchased. I bought them primarily because of the editors choice they won in Backpacker's Magazine. These are made with very high quality standards and it shows. They are great all around boots. They had a quick break in period, very flexible, yet rigid enough to support heavy loads. I have not had any of the traction issues that some buyers complained about with these boots. I have tried Keens, Salomons, Asolos, you name it but none of them are on par with these boots. I know the price is a little steep but you will not be disappointed. Just get them! And a couple years down the road you have not got to throw them out when you have worn the sole out because they are resolable! I have nothing bad to say about these boots.

These are the most comfortable boots I have ever worn, but the traction on anything wet is absolutely horrible. I hike up a trail that is right next to 20+ waterfalls and these are useless on any wood or rocks that are wet. The traction is so bad that I returned them to the retailer I purchased them from. With a different sole, these boots would be awesome. They are just as waterproof as any good Gore-Tex boot. So while comfortable, I don't believe they deserved the best boot award they got from Backpacker magazine at all. Looks don't matter much to me, but make sure you like red if you order these boots. They are bright red. Remember Air Jordans in the early 90s? That's how red they are.

I really like these boots because they required absolutely no break-in period before a hiking trip of approximately 50 miles. This was the first purchase from Zamberlan and I am impressed. The second trail day I wore them was the day I climbed Katahdin in Maine while it was raining. My only surprise was that the boots took longer than expected to dry out even though my feet were never wet. I did not have any of the traction issues that others have had. The rest of my recent trip was spent in a variety of rocky and root filled terrain. My feet stayed dry and comfortable during the entire trip. Now that I have finally read the care instructions and learned that the soles are replaceable makes them even better since I went through the soles of four pairs of my previous favorite boots.

Very good boot. I'm a bit of a Zamberlan whore but these boots justify it. I also have the Panther's and while I love those, they are not so good for true off trail hiking in tall grass or brush (seeds and burs get into the boot due to their low height). Very comfortable right out of the box. The soles are a soft-ish sticky rubber which gave me critical grip of some very steep, dusty, loose rock terrain. I like to hike steep terrain and needed a pair of boots that I could count on and these proved themselves worthy. You just cannot beat Italian craftsmanship.
I'd also recommend: Just stick with Zamberlan's. They value quality and don't make their stuff in China!!!

I read about these boots in Backpacker Magazine's review. It came highly recommended. I was concerned because they come in medium width only, and I am usually a 9EE. I ordered the 9.5 and have hiked in them a few miles, and they are comfortable right out of the box without any hot spots so far. They give good support and when crossing streams, the water just falls off of the surface and keeps my feet dry. Good support in rocky terrain and both during a climb and descent. Recommend them highly.
