Description

<p>Moon Boots are the It-girl’s winter must-have. The retro snow boot — instantly recognized by its playful proportions — was first designed in 1969 by Giancarlo Zanatta, who took inspiration from the Apollo 11 moon landing. Today they’re a faultless choice for après-ski, whether you’re hitting the slopes or not. <br /><br /></p><p>Each pair has a rubber tread sole that provides traction against slippery surfaces, while its water-repellent padded upper keeps you comfortable in temperatures as low as -31° F. Please note: the boot may feel snug at first, as the specially designed foam lining molds to the shape of your foot.</p><ul>- Lace-up fastening

Brand Spotlight

MOON BOOT

Moon Boot is an iconic Italian snow boot brand created in the early 1970s by Giancarlo Zanatta, founder of the Tecnica Group. Inspired by the Apollo 11 moon landing in 1969, Zanatta was fascinated by the bulky space boots worn by astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin, leading him to design futuristic-looking après-ski boots. The original Moon Boot featured innovative construction with nylon fabrics and polyurethane foam, offering lightweight thermal protection and an ambidextrous fit that could adapt to different sizes. Initially presented at the 1970 Milan trade fair, Moon Boot became an instant success, selling over 30 million pairs worldwide. The brand has continuously reinvented itself, collaborating with luxury brands like Jimmy Choo and Moncler, and expanding beyond ski slopes to city streets. Today, Moon Boot remains a symbol of retrofuturistic design, with its distinctive silhouette displayed at prestigious institutions including the Louvre and Museum of Modern Art in New York.
