A Partnership with Shared Values

Since the 1990s, Galibier and Sympatex have shared a common vision: high-performance and environmentally friendly footwear. Galibier’s leather craftsmanship stands for quality and durability, while Sympatex sets standards with its 100% waterproof, breathable, and sustainable membrane technology. This collaboration ensures that every step in a Galibier boot is not only comfortable and protected but also mindful of the planet.

The Sympatex Difference: More than Just Waterproof

At the heart of Galibier mountain boots lies the Sympatex membrane and the powerful moisture-tech by Sympatex® technology. This combination ensures that feet stay dry and comfortable, even in the toughest conditions. Sweat is effectively wicked away and moisture is transported outward, providing a pleasant foot climate and reducing the risk of blisters.

Whether on long hikes, in alpine terrain, or during extreme weather – moisture-tech by Sympatex® guarantees:

• Fast moisture absorption and evaporation
• Improved freshness and less odor buildup
• Optimal comfort in both hot and cold conditions

Together with the 100% waterproof and windproof properties of the Sympatex membrane, Galibier delivers first-class protection and comfort without any compromise on performance.

The Uniqueness of the Sympatex Membrane

What makes the Sympatex membrane so special? Unlike conventional technologies that rely on chemical treatments, the Sympatex membrane is completely PFAS-free and solvent-free. It dynamically adapts to activity levels and weather conditions, ensuring outstanding breathability – 100% waterproof, 100% windproof, and fully recyclable.

The more you move, the more effective the membrane becomes. As body heat and moisture increase, the hydrophilic structure of the material actively transports vapor outwards, ensuring dry and comfortable feet even during challenging mountain hikes.

Galibier’s Legacy of Excellence

For generations, the name Galibier has stood for durability and alpine adventure. Models like the Jorasses and Pelvoux have proven themselves over decades – equipped with robust full-grain leather and the reliable protection of Sympatex technology. Today, this partnership continues to evolve, with the new Super Rando boots reflecting the perfect combination of craftsmanship heritage and sustainable innovation.

Ready for the Future: Circularity and Responsibility

Sympatex is committed to closing the loop in textile production. By 2030, we aim to achieve full circularity by turning end-of-life products back into raw materials. Together with partners like Galibier, who share our vision for sustainable and durable outdoor gear, we are moving closer to that goal every day. The boots you wear today are not just built for adventure – they are built for the future.

Moving Forward Together

Galibier and Sympatex prove that sustainability and performance are not opposites. They are two sides of the same coin – united in every pair of boots. Together, we are setting new standards and ensuring that outdoor adventures leave only footprints – and nothing more.

Let’s Re>Close the Loop. Together.
