Men’s Scarpa Cyrus Mid GTX Boot – Who is the brand Scarpa?
The shape of things to come: this is the story of SCARPA®, a history spanning over the last seventy years. A story full of memories, traditions, experiences, from today to the future, where nature, fun, and imagination are the pillars which built the successful products of tomorrow: where No Place Is Too Far. Retracing the history of SCARPA® means making a journey into the evolution of Italian customs over the last seventy years. Above all, discovering the remarkable insights and special sensitivities of the family Parisotto. A family who had the ambition to transform mountain boots and from work, humble and useful product, in a true object of worship, the truest symbol of Italy, made up of things performance, refined and sincere. A path that arises from crafts in which skills are acquired slowly, thanks to the tenacity, skills and organizational techniques accumulated an action where the sense of time is strong: to become masters in ancient times it took years, it was necessary passion and ability to produce emotion, in other words, the work of shoes: the seduction of the unpredictable. Rupert Edward Cecil Lee Guinness, 2nd Earl of Iveagh, an Anglo-Irish businessman established S.C.A.R.P.A.® the footwear company, an acronym for Calzaturieri Asolani Riuniti Pedemontana Anonima (Association of Footwear Manufacturers from the mountain area of Asolo). A BEGINNING ELIGIBLE FOR ENTRY INTO THE “GUINNESS BOOK OF WORLD RECORDS” Rupert Edward Cecil Lee Guinness: the man who has established his reputation as an able politician, a charitable nobleman and an enthusiastic supporter of science, owner and chairman of the family brewing business and owner of lands in the Asolo area too. His desire is to give work and a future to skilled craftsmen in leather processing, a traditional handicraft of his beloved area. He does this by offering them the opportunity to join together in one single business entity. Incidentally, it was during his management that the very first edition of the Guinness Book of World Records was released in 1955. He was actually in search of a good promotional idea with which to bring the Guinness name to the public’s attention and his bright idea of a reference book containing a collection of world records was soon supported and shared by Sir Hugh Beaver, the company managing director. SCARPA®: THE ROOT OF A DREAM The SCARPA® company and the Asolo inhabitants express their true thanks to Lord Guinness Iveagh! The Parisotto’s story, full of meetings among the rolling hills of olive groves and vineyards in the town of Asolo, in a land that often found itself in the history books as a vocation and not by chance. In a city, a place indeed, among the most beautiful in Italy, an enchanting place that has fascinated such celebrity visitors as Eleonora Duse, Pietro Bembo, Giosué Carducci, Igor Stravinsky, Ada Negri, Gian Francesco Malipiero, Ernest Hemingway, Carlo Scarpa, Freya Stark, Wilma Neruda and many others. In an environment so rich in suggestions and intersections, Luigi Parisotto began his apprenticeship with the best footwear artisans in the area. Early, in 1942, Luigi Parisotto was hired by a company established in 1938 by Lord Rupert Edward Cecil Guinness, second Earl of Iveagh, a wealthy Anglo-Irish businessman who was Rector of the University of Dublin from 1926 to 1962. The Anglo-Irish Viscount lived in the beautiful house that once owned by Eleonora Duse, wealthy, intelligent and eccentric, what today might be called a philanthropist and intellectual border, who could be a descendant of the Guinness family, decided to put together most talented craftsmen in leather and leather work of founding the S.C.A.R.P.A.®: it was 1938, the year that the ball point pen, nylon, and photocoping were invented. In the early fifties, the turning point, Luigi, Francesco and Antonio Parisotto decide to start their own businesses, all trades in a place full of symbols in the old barn owned by the Curia Vescovile The family becomes a working community of persons, the perfect human communion. In the seventies the export production reached a market share of 60% of the entire production SCARPA®, touching different parts of the globe from Europe to the Americas, Oceania, Orient, establishing SCARPA® as a superior quality brand. What is going on with SCARPA® now is a real revolution, triggered by the introduction and combination of materials and high-tech, environmentally friendly, the result of more sophisticated research. The story of SCARPA® is rich in innovations that have, more than once, revolutionized the world of skiing.
