Technology

Vibram® Vibram® is the world leader in high performance rubber soles, targeted to the outdoor, work, recreation, fashion, repair and orthopedic markets. For more than 70 years, the famous yellow octagon that identifies our brand has been synonymous with quality, performance, safety, innovation and design. Since revolutionizing the sport with the creation of the first rubber sole for mountain climbing in the '30s, Vibram has positioned itself as the market standard. Vibram soles, created with a desire to increase safety and protection levels, are the result of a constant commitment to research and development. They proved to be irreplaceable companions during many extreme expeditions: conquering Everest, K2 and almost all the highest peaks in the world; distinguishing themselves in competitions and transoceanic regattas like the America's Cup and the Vendee Globe Challenge, and taking innovative design concepts into fashion and recreation.
Vibram® has a relentless commitment to research and development. Each new Vibram® product is designed using only the latest designs and the best compounds for its specific use. New soles are always produced with three objectives: to guarantee the best performance, the maximum level of comfort and quality over time. These objectives are realized by the stringent tests that are executed in the laboratory and in the field by the Vibram® Tester Team.
