Diemme
DIEMME, THE ITALIAN MOUNTAIN SHOE GOES DOWN TO THE CITY
DENNIS AND MAICO SIGNOR FOUND DIEMME IN 1992 IN ONÈ DI FONTE
Dennis Signor made hunting boots at thirteen and worked in a factory in sixteen. In 1992, with his brother Maico, he founded Calzaturificio Diemme in Onè di Fonte, a village in the district of Montebelluna, in Veneto — the region that has been manufacturing the world's mountain and ski boots for a century. The workshop produces hunting, mountaineering, work and army boots, then entire collections for luxury houses, Chanel and Gucci among them. Twenty years of subcontracting for others, before signing.
The Diemme brand was born from this know-how: taking models from the back catalogue, hunting and hiking, and readapting them to the city. Everything is handmade in Onè di Fonte, using leather from the best tanneries, with Italian components — Vibramsoles, eyelets, laces. The result is a shoe that has theair from a shelter and which is brought to Milan, and which has earned the house collaborations with Stone Island, Bedwin or BAL.
ROCCIA VET, THE BOOT WHO MADE DIEMME
The Roccia Vet is the signature model: a hiking boot in galvanized leather, with lacing hooks and Vibram notched sole, designed for rock — roccia — and which has become the symbol of hiking chic of the years 2010. We have it in Roccia Vet Gomma black, the version with a full rubber sole, and in Vet Total Black Full Grain, entirely black, in full grain leather.
CORNARO, AMPEZZO, GRAPPA HIKER: THE REST OF THE RANGE
The Cornaro is the widest boot in our selection: lower and more flexible than the Roccia, in bison suede, in black suede or in leather, and in Gomma version with rubber mudguard, black or cognac. TheAmpezzo, named after Cortina, goes down a notch: a derby with a notched sole, in black leather or suede, which bridges the gap between the city shoe and the boot. The Grappa Hiker, in black or in mogano fabric, is the sneaker of the house — a low hiking silhouette mounted on a lightweight sole.
HOW TO SIZE AND HOW TO WEAR DIEMME
Diemme wide fit and true to size: your usual size, with a thick sock for the boots. The leather is treated to resist water but requires waxing once a season. They are worn like you wear a boot d'outdoor in town: straight pants or cargo pants that fall on the upper, parka or down jacket, and nothing slim. In our boots department, Diemme is the Italian answer to Timberland and Salomon — less technical than the second, thinner than the first, and made by hand. With Kleman, it forms the duo of European shoes in our catalog: two family factories, two villages, the same idea.
