Northwave

The mountains run in Northwave's blood and snow and cycling is their forte. All their snowboard boots, bindings and boards contain an abundance of knowledge, energy and love.
Northwave live for the mountains and their North America branch is situated in Seattle, Washington in the shadows of the Cascades. Their inspiration surrounds them every day. It is in Seattle and their technical shoe research facility in Montebelluna, Italy where they test all their products. 

It was in Montebelluna where they were founded by Gianni Piva in 1971, producing ski boot liners and snow shoes. They launched internationally around twenty years later and soon became world-renowned for their collection of cycling and snowsports goods and, thanks to their Northwave North America team, their snowboard boots have become legendary. 

Northwave are very much now worldwide and six core aims define everything they do: innovation, technology, design, passion, authenticity and sustainability. They have no business plan, just a love, passion and desire to produce products for mountain sports that are unmatched in performance, quality and style.







It's not just the pure activity of snowboarding and biking that matters to them but what comes with them: A sense of fun, community, being closer to nature and self-improvement.
