AKU

AKU

AKU is the brand of an Italian shoe factory that produces shoes for mountain, hunting and leisure in contact with nature. The technical quality, function and reliability of each individual model are guaranteed by over 40 years of specific experience in the footwear sector, in full respect of the ancient and unparalleled Italian manufacturing tradition.


History of AKU



The history of AKU begins in a shoemaker’s workshop in a district of Montebelluna, the small Venetian town that in over a century has built and spread the myth of Italian sports footwear all over the world.

Galliano Bordin, founder of the company, is the son of shoemakers and since he was a child he acquired experience first in the repair and then in the construction of footwear. Almost in every family of the small Venetian town, hides are cut, uppers are sewn, soles are attached. Almost everyone, in one way or another, is part of this production specialization that generates artisan workshops and small businesses destined over time to become the most prestigious brands at an international level in various sports fields, but in particular for mountaineering, the trekking, alpine skiing and cross-country skiing.


AKU Today


AKU is still a family business, managed by the Bordin family, founder of the company, with a staff of young collaborators, with an informal style, passionate about the product and its environment of use.

In the transition from the artisan dimension to the current industrial configuration, AKU has been able to maintain an organizational and managerial balance at the base of which respect for people and the value of relationships are always found.

The company structure is now divided into 3 production units owned and managed directly with AKU personnel for a total of over 400 employees.

The value of AKU has been testified in the past by significant collaborations with some important protagonists of the mountaineering scene.

 

  • Mauro Corona brings the first AKU models to the rocks of the Friulian Dolomites on the occasion of the opening of new climbing routes.
  • Fausto De Stefani, mountaineer and traveler, is with AKU for the approach treks to many of his most important high-altitude enterprises in the Himalayas, Nepal and the Alps.
  • I Ragni di Lecco, a legendary group of Lombard mountaineers, makes an important contribution to the launch of Spider Kevlar GTX, another highly successful and innovative model that confirms AKU among the protagonists in the mountaineering sector as well.
