In 1964, Garmont was born in the Montebelluna Sportsystem district, a place renowned worldwide for its footwear expertise and craftsmanship. The brand name carries its heritage within it: “GAR” comes from the founder’s surname, Garbuio, while “MONT” pays tribute to Montebelluna, the heart of sports footwear tradition and innovation.
Garmont quickly established itself as a trusted name in ski mountaineering, capturing the passion of enthusiasts and earning the respect of professionals who shared the same love for the mountains.
Driven by a desire to explore new possibilities, the company expanded its offering with mountaineering footwear and began its journey toward international growth.
Garmont continued to push boundaries with the launch of the first Dragontail approach shoe, helping define a completely new product category. This spirit of innovation continued with the first 9.81 shoe, a precursor to modern trail running footwear.
Garmont accelerated the development of its outdoor business, exiting the ski boot market to strengthen its focus and position in the outdoor footwear segment.
A new era began for Garmont, defined by a comprehensive transformation across the entire value chain. From organizational restructuring and supply chain re-engineering to a renewed brand identity and product design strategy, every step was driven by the ambition to build a stronger future.
Garmont unveils a new product architecture centered around the 9.81 and Tradizione collections, while redefining its operating model through dedicated business units. This evolution brings greater focus, stronger decision-making, and new opportunities to continue growing and shaping the future of outdoor footwear.
