Skandia Boots

The Italian company Scandia has been producing shoes since 1979. Products quickly spread to the United States and Canada, and a little later conquered the Russian market of warm shoes.

Scandia company specializes in the production of winter shoes, boots of this brand are popular in countries with severe snowy winters.

Thanks to the membrane technology used in the production, Scandia boots perfectly retain heat, even in severe frosts. The temperature inside is kept at +31 degrees. This mark is considered ideal, as it prevents the feet from freezing and prevents overheating and excessive sweating.

Scandia shoes not only keep their feet warm, but also prevent them from getting wet, maintaining an ideal microclimate. This is especially important when staying outdoors for a long time. As you know, after getting wet feet freeze much faster. Therefore, for sports, hiking and hanging out, it is very important that the shoes do not leak moisture. At the same time, thanks to the membrane inside the Scandia boots, the legs continue to “breathe”, which reduces the risk of foot diseases and unpleasant odors.

With excellent heat-saving properties, shoes of the Italian company have increased lightness. It is achieved thanks to the refusal of the company from natural materials. Scandia boots are available on the market in two versions: with faux fur lining and high-tech insulation TOR 2099.

Artificial materials make the boots unpretentious in maintenance: they can simply be washed with running water and soap or in a washing machine. But such shoes should not be worn with socks made of 100% cotton, the content of elastane in tights or socks should be at least 10%.

In addition to complete impermeability to water and wind, Scandia shoes can be attributed to anti-slip: the pattern on the sole represents a lot of multidirectional volume lines that provide traction to any surface.

Thus, the warm, comfortable, lightweight Scandia boots fully comply with the high standards of Italian shoes, but are favorably priced. Scandia is one of the most affordable brands of Italian shoes. Despite changes in the exchange rate, the products of this company remain in the middle price segment.

In Russia, Scandia shoes are represented by a children's, teenage and women's line. Especially popular are models for children. Parents trust the boots of this brand, as orthopedists and pediatricians took part in the development of shoes.

In each model of the Scandia children's assortment, the position of the foot is taken into account. To prevent the foot of the child from sweating, three-layer insoles are provided in boots. The brand takes care of the correct development of the baby's legs from a very young age: the size range of boots starts from the 20th size, which corresponds to 12.5 centimeters. Usually this foot length occurs in a child aged from one and a half to two years. Each next size is half a centimeter longer. Thus, the maximum foot length in the children's line is 23 cm, which corresponds to the 36th size.

Italian designers have taken care of the wide range of Scandia baby boots. There are many models on the Russian market, equipped with bright details: zippers, lacing, faux fur.

In the children's line for girls, floral print boots are especially popular.

The same floral print is found in the women's collection of winter shoes Scandia. The size range of boots for women starts at size 36. The length of the foot in such models corresponds to 22 centimeters. Unlike many shoe brands, Scandia produces women's shoes more than 40th size, in the collection you can find models of 41st and 42nd sizes.

All boots have a sufficiently wide bootleg, equipped with lacing. They are perfect for a full leg and will be completely comfortable. Due to the height, which reaches 30-33 centimeters, Scandia winter shoes are suitable for country trips or outdoor recreation.

For urban conditions, the company produces feminine stylish models on a wedge. These boots have a more elegant design, they can be trimmed with metal elements with rhinestones. Another Scandia shoe for everyday wear is ankle boots trimmed with faux fur. They are made in neutral colors, and are equipped with lacing as a decor.

Trying to keep up with fashion trends, Scandia designers are constantly updating the color scheme of the collection. In recent years, white boots without fasteners with bright elements have been especially popular. They are usually called "dutiki". These boots look great with jeans or colorful suits for outdoor activities.

A more extravagant option, designed to attract attention, is silver boots that look very impressive on white snow. For those who prefer less catchy options, the Scandia lineup features black models. They can be matte or glossy, plain or complemented by contrasting lacing, bright details.

Scandia designers offer discreet women to take a closer look at burgundy or blue boots and boots. These colors will not catch the eye or look eccentric, but will bring their zest to the image.

Among children's models, delicate colors for girls are popular. Pink, blue, peach boots are presented in each collection. Models for boys are made mainly in dark colors: brown, black, blue.

Both the adult and children's lineup have recently replenished with two-tone models. The lower part of such boots is usually a couple of tones darker than the upper. The color combination adds predominantly athletic shoes to style and grace.

Years of experience and research into production technologies allow Scandia to produce high-quality, warm, wear-resistant shoes that can withstand thirty-degree frost. The boots produced by this Italian brand are created using a unique material developed specifically for Scandia, the Scandiatex membrane.

The membrane is located between the inner and outer layer of tissue. This layer is very thin and does not add massiveness to the boots. At the same time, Scandiatex consists of micro pores that do not allow wind and moisture to pass through, but allow the foot to “breathe”, freely letting moisture out.

Membrane tissue was invented for athletes to remove moisture from the body during high loads. Such material is not a heater; it helps to maintain the internal temperature. This is especially true for children who are usually very active on the street.

Upper shoe materials interact with Scandiatex membrane. High-tech fabrics used in the production of the entire model range provide increased wear resistance and lightness of boots. All upper materials are impregnated with a dirt-repellent compound that protects the appearance of the shoe and prolongs its service life.

The structure and material of the soles of this brand are no less important. The company Scandia was one of the first to think about the adhesion of shoes to the surface. Slippery shoes can cause falls and injuries, so Scandia boots are equipped with a polyurethane sole with a relief pattern. The different direction of the lines and their volume are reliably fixed on the surface, minimizing the ability to slip.

The comfort of the foot is guaranteed by special three-layer insoles. The inner and outer layers are used to absorb the fluid and remove it so that the leg remains dry. Between them is a layer of foil that reflects heat back to the foot. The purpose of maintaining a constant temperature inside the boots is the special insulation TOR 2099.

Using innovative, modern technologies, the creators of Scandia shoes take care of many years of standards: they pay a lot of attention to the convenience of pads, the quality of seams. A very important detail for Scandia baby boots is an additional layer of fabric under the zipper, which absolutely eliminates the ingress of snow into the shoes.

Scandia shoes are becoming more widespread in Russia. Owners of boots or shoes with Scandiatex membrane note the lightness of such shoes compared to the usual leather models.

Parents who choose Scandia for their kids talk about the quality and durability of their boots. Many note that the child’s feet did not get wet and did not freeze, even if a thin sock was worn under the boots. At the same time, in conditions of urban winter, slush and chemicals that cover roads, it was important for most Scandia buyers that shoes can be washed easily.

Thus, the Italian quality and low price compared with other manufacturers have won the favor of customers in Russia, and Scandia has taken its place in the market of warm shoes.
