Alanui x Moon Boot: Tribute to the Mountains and Après-ski

Alanui teams up with Moon Boot for a collaboration with winter flavours. Two worlds get together on the ski slopes and in the world of mountains. A new journey through enchanted snow covered landscapes, in search of a confession. “Talking about perennial sea ice and a trip to the northern reaches of the world brought us to think of a collaboration between Alanui and Moon Boot as a natural evolution,” says Carlotta Oddi, Founder and Creative Director of Alanui, “Moon Boot is the boot that has always existed in the collective imagination. It belongs to the world of mountain and après-ski and certainly the one that could best describe the inspiration of our collection.” Moon Boot is a historic brand “Made in Italy”, it is among the 100 Design Symbols of the 20th Century and can be found anywhere from the Louvre in Paris to the permanent collection of the MoMA in New York. An Italian tale which started in Treviso and reaches all the way to Alaska. The shape of the boot was inspired by the one worn by Buzz Aldrin when he took his first steps on the Moon. Distinct characteristics of the boot are the ambidextrous sole and the trekking laces. The collection consists of three models: the Icon High, the Icon Low and the Full Moon. This latter is the great novelty of the season, presented for the first time during this fall-winter 2022, “it is designed as a slip-on or a pump, a nylon shoe ideal for the city, presented in 6 different colours”.
