Moon Boot

History and origin of the Moon Boot brand

The origins of the Moon Boot brand trace back to a defining moment in the history of space exploration. In 1969, during the live broadcast of the Apollo 11 landing, Giancarlo Zanatta, inspired by the astronauts’ footwear – those distinctive, voluminous lunar boots – decided to bring the freshness and innovation of the space age into the world of fashion. His sketches, where futuristic design intertwined with the idea of comfort and protection against the cold, marked the beginning of a new era in footwear shaped by technology and a vision of the future. This is how the Moon Boot style was born – from the outset an embodiment of avant-garde trends.

Associated with a retro-futuristic aesthetic, Moon Boot quickly found its place in the world of après-ski styling and became a symbol of effortless elegance in the 1980s. Its identity was built on bold silhouettes, padded materials and inspiration drawn from cosmic design. Today, both classic models and new lines created in collaboration with forward-thinking brands and fashion designers can be found, preserving the brand’s cosmic DNA while emphasising its ability to adapt to evolving trends.
