This is a pair of unworn, 1970s Munari Ski-Mountaineering boots, handmade in Italy. These represent a rare era of alpine design—the "Ski-Alp" hybrid—featuring a stiff, structured silhouette meant for both technical climbing and vintage ski touring.
Condition & Aesthetics:
Upper: Deep mahogany full-grain leather in pristine condition. Supple, glossy, and rich.
Hardware: Includes the iconic double-strap buckle system over the bridge for maximum support—a legendary look in vintage mountaineering.
Sole: Features the original Vibram Roccia Block soles (Made in Italy). Zero wear, perfectly preserved tread.
Style: The red-and-black braided laces provide a sharp contrast that defines the Gorpcore and high-fashion outdoor aesthetic.
For the High-Fashion Buyer:
These boots offer the perfect "chunky" silhouette and industrial hardware favored by modern streetwear trends. Because they are technical ski-mountaineering boots, they have a unique, armored look that standard hiking boots can't match.
Provenance:
From my father’s original collection. Purchased in the 1970s and stored in a climate-controlled environment in St. Cloud, MN for over 50 years.
Size: 8
Note: Sold as a historical collectible. Due to age, they are intended for display or fashion use.
