In preparation for winter, nothing beats a good pair of Rossignol 1907 Chamonix Alpine Boots to keep you warm and dry and looking like a million bucks as if you just came down from the slopes in Chamonix, Zermatt, Gstaad, or St. Moritz. Rossignol is a brand that was born in the French Alps in 1907 and is truly an icon of the past and a symbol of the present. If you know, you know, and if you know anything about skiing, Après-ski, and the proper gear for it, these boots are a must-have this season.
Founded by Abel Rossignol who took his inspiration from the snowy peaks of Le Sappey-en-Chartreuse in Isère, France, little did he know, that more than a hundred years later his name would be that of the world’s leading brand of skis and the outfitter to some of the most demanding professionals in the sport of skiing.
The Rossignol 1907 Chamonix Alpine Boots get their name from the year Rossignol was founded and from Chamonix-Mont-Blanc —usually shortened to Chamonix—, the exquisite ski resort area near the junction of France, Switzerland, and Italy, located at the base of the Mont Blanc, the highest peak in the Alps.
Inspired by life in the Alps and Rossignol's alpine legacy, the 1907 Chamonix Boots blend mountain durability and urban style. The chocolate edition brings classic hiking-boot style to these premium leather boots that are waterproof and insulated for warm, dry feet in cold, wet weather.
And just like with watches, it is all about the details. Just like the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore in platinum with a blue, silvery white, and red color palette, the Rossignol 1907 Chamonix Alpine Boots also feature those colors. From the alpine red laces to the red side zip —for an easy on and off without the need of undoing the laces— and the bleu, blanc, et rouge iconic rooster logo, these boots are the perfect match to the Royal Oak Offshore in platinum ref. 26401PO.
These chocolate brown Rossignol 1907 Chamonix Alpine Boots are equipped with a rugged black and red rubber sole to provide good traction in icy and snowy conditions, very supple leather embossed with the Rossignol logo on the side, an HDry membrane through the inside of the shoe to create a waterproof and breathable barrier to keep your feet dry, WinTherm ALU Fit thermal insulation to maintain your feet warm and an elegant herringbone fabric around the ankle to balance the casual yet elegant look of these boots.
Paired with jeans or even with a nice pair of tweed or wool slacks, the alpine look of these boots is unmatched. Extremely comfortable, warm, and stylish, the Rossignol 1907 Chamonix Alpine Boots check all the boxes when it comes to alpine boots very in style this Fall/Winter fashion season.
If names like Cortina d’ Ampezzo, Courchevel, Kitzbühel, Verbier, and Innsbruck are at the top of your list for European ski resorts, these boots are made just for you. Additionally, the exclusivity of this brand makes them perfect for those in the know.
