We’re Scarpa Pro Shops!
For over 90 years, Scarpa have designed and manufactured arguably the world's best outdoor footwear. The range has evolved to offer shoes and boots that work out in the field, whether your passion is climbing, hiking, running or mountaineering to the roof of the world.
Established in 1938 , S.C.A.R.P.A.®, an acronym for Societa Calzaturieri Asolani Riuniti Pedemontana Anonima (Association of Footwear Manufacturers from the mountain area of Asolo) gave work and a future to skilled craftsmen in leather processing, a traditional handicraft of this area of Italy.
Scarpa’s story is rich in innovations that have revolutionised the world of outdoor footwear. A world-leader in technical shoes from trail running, to alpine, to rock climbing and approach, Scarpa make high-quality footwear representing the ideal marriage of craftsmanship and technology.
What does being a Pro Store mean?
All four of our stores hold an extensive range of Scarpa footwear. From rock climbing shoes, running and approach shoes right through to high-altitude boots, we have a huge variety.
Not only do we have the choice, but we also have the availability to back this up. In a few key models in the range, we also stock an expanded size range from 36 right through to 50.
As a designated Pro Store, our staff team have the ability to help you select the best footwear for your activity. We have many years of experience in running, climbing, walking, backpacking and expeditions and we are eager to pass on our knowledge and expertise in selecting the right product for your needs, explaining the technical features and attributes of the product itself and helping you get the perfect fit.
The Climbers Shop and Joe Brown Shops have ranged Scarpa since the very early days.
We don’t sell anything in our shops that we wouldn’t use ourselves.
Our partnership with Scarpa means we can provide our customers with the very best outdoor footwear choice possible and with both such a unique and long-standing heritage, it’s the perfect partnership.
We are very proud that Joe Brown Shops in Capel Curig and Llanberis and The Climbers Shop in Ambleside are the first shops in the UK to have the Scarpa Pro Store status.
