Nordica
In 1939, after years of experience as traders in hides, the brothers Adriano and Oddone Vaccari founded "Nordica" in Montebelluna, making casual footweaR. In the after-war years Nordica specialised in ski boots, although continuing to supply the market with cross-country ski shoes and climbing boots. Work was still seasonal and the equipment manual.
In 1950 Zeno Colò gave his name to a Nordica ski boot and to a revolutionary lining designed by Colmar.
Zeno became World Champion with Nordica both in the downhill and the giant slalom of the 1950 World Championships in Aspen, Colorado and gave his name to a ski boot made by the company in Trevignano.
