80s moon boots
Like the name ’moon boot’ indicates, these Italian chunky oversized boots were inspired by the Apollo 11 moon landing in 1969. The designer and company founder Giancarlo Zanatta got influenced by astronauts’ high-tech shoes and designed the original Moon Boot. Initially, the boots were meant for après ski activities but people started to wear the boots in the cities as well. The boot became so popular in the 80s that several copycats entered the market. They were all called moon boots but the original boots have always been manufactured by the Italian company Tecnica. The moon boots became fashionable again at the turn of the century, and in the 2020s.
