Any suggestions on European owned, made in Europe Snowboard boots? (Or at least European owned if we do not make any boots here?)
I am looking for fairly entry level equipment, but I could be fine with paying a little bit more if that is the only way of getting European products.
I believe Nidecker is Swiss and Northwave is Italian. Not sure where either are manufactured though…info might be available in their websites.
I have heard about Nidecker, but Northwave is a new brand for me. Thanks, I will investigate!
Seems like Nidecker produces in Switzerland but also in Tunisia and China. Note that it is for snowboards, so the boots could be produced elsewhere.
I found this nice infographic on Reddit but it is 11 years old so it might not be relevant any longer.
Salomon was founded in France but i’m not sure if they are producing in yurop
Thanks! But I would say it is questionable if you can call Salomon European nowadays. It was bought by Amer Sports which is traded on the New York Stock Exchange, and that is part of the Chinese Anta Sports.
I do not know if they manufacture in Europe, which would be nice. But I am looking for something more European than that.
