Although not as prominent as their handmade shoes, LA SPORTIVA's clothing gears are still impressive in their own right. The brand provides simple and basic affordable gear that gets the job done, cutting down on almost all unnecesarry costs and fancy technology that - let's be honest here - you probably won't need. Humans have been scaling rocks hundreds of years before without any fancy technology, it's all about challeneging yourself and beating yesterday's you and the purpose of the clothing gear should be to make it easier for you to take that challenge, which LA SPORTIVA's clothing effortlessly does. And while it's not the most aestheically pleasing, the most important thing is that it's effective - who cares about how you look when you're conquering the mountains anyways, you'll look badass either way. Their rock climbing pants in particular are very functional and practical, they're nice and flexible allowing for a full range of motion, they're also decently think and tough so that there won't be any rip and tears if there's a jagged climb, and for all the reasons above, we also really like these pants. We recommend LA SPORTIVA for the intense rock climbers out there, who are super passionate about conquering the most dangerous mountains that nature has to offer,

LA SPORTIVA'S MISSION
Our mission is to bring you the best technical products to explore the outdoors. For 93 years we have been producing innovative products and we are looking forward to the next 90 years. Produced and designed in a small mountain town at the foot of the Dolomites, La Sportiva supports 140 families in a unique and enviable environment. Everyday the mountains surround the people who handcraft our products. Being mountain based and family run allows us to draw on eight decades of experience handed down through the generations. With this heritage we can focus on the future and meld new technologies, ideas and innovation with our rich knowledge of manufacturing to give you the most amazing products on the market. Products that let you go where you dream to go, do what you dream to do and live how you want to live.

HISTORY
La Sportiva Italy possesses a strong passion for the mountains and the environment this is why there is always a consciousness of what kind of impact the factory has on the outdoor world. By using a proactive approach to business La Sportiva Italy can critically check existing processes as well as do extensive research to develop ways of reducing negative impacts and creating the best possible product for its consumers.

La Sportiva owns and operates its own state-of-the-art factory in Italy. This small, 250 person, factory is truly an anomaly in today's footwear world characterized by hyper-competitiveness and extreme pricing pressures which have lead most modern outdoor footwear companies to the solution of outsourced production contractors. Our factory is located in Ziano di Fiemme, a small mountain village in the heart of the Italian Dolomites. The tradition and heritage of handmade footwear lives on in this magical alpine valley existing in the shadows of jagged limestone peaks and glaciated valleys where alpine masters such as Bonatti and Messner plied their craft.

Fun fact: The British fashion of wearing hats was started by Queen Elizabeth I. In 1571, she decreed that everyone over the age of 7 had to wear hats.
Fun fact: Nike was founded on January 25, 1964, as "Blue Ribbon Sports", by Bill Bowerman and Phil Knight, and officially became Nike, Inc. on May 30, 1971. The company takes its name from Nike, the Greek goddess of victory.
Fun fact: Streetwear is actually quite a common term in the modern fashion world. It refers to a distinctive style of street fashion, which has its roots in Californian and skate culture, but also encompasses elements of hip-hop fashion, modern high fashion and haute couture.
Fun fact: For a time, South Korea had an actual fashion police division. During the 1970s, police would measure the length of women’s miniskirts; if they were too short, women could be fined or arrested.
Fun fact: Coco Chanel designed the signature “Chanel Suit” in the 1920s, and often wore it paired with a short-cropped haircut. The suit was widely criticized at the time, but the suit was re-debuted in 1954, when it became a massive hit.
Fun fact: In the 1670s, King Louis XIV of France popularized high heels for men. He favored shoes that had soles and heels dyed red because red dye was expensive at that time.
