A LEGEND IN EVERY CORNER OF THE WORLD
Vibram is the world leader in the production of high performance rubber soles for the sports, industrial,
leisure, orthopedic, and repair markets.
In 1935, Italian Alpine Club member Vitale Bramani was part of an expedition on Resica Mountain
where six climbers lost their lives, due in part to their low-quality footwear. Upon his return, Bramani had
the brilliant idea of prototyping a vulcanized rubber sole with help from the rubber experts at the Pirelli
Tire Company. This breakthrough, along with the design of the Carrarmato Sole, revolutionized mountain
climbing and the footwear world. Thus, Vibram was born.
The Vibram name is an acronym of its founder’s name, Vitale Bramani. Over the last 75 years,
Vibram has been committed to developing an extensive range of high-performance soling products for
a wide variety of activities and lifestyles. Thanks to ongoing investments in research and development,
Vibram has cultivated an international reputation synonymous with quality, performance, and safety.
Vitale Bramani,
Italian mountaineer and inventor of the Vibram sole

Vibram is headquartered in Albizzate,
Italy. With corporate offices in Boston,
Massachusetts and production
facilities located in North Brookfield,
Massachusetts, Vibram has long
been recognized as the leader in high
performance soles. Vibram soles are
used in extreme conditions such as
firefighting, mining, and gas and oil
exploration. Vibram soles are engineered
to meet the rigorous standards of each VIBRAM HEADQUARTERS—ALBIZZATE, ITALY
industry. That same dedication toward
performance is put into the soles, heels,
toplifts, and sheet products that are
produced specifically for the outdoor
and casual footwear markets. With a
global network of production facilities,
Vibram takes great pride in our rich
history of Made in America; Vibram has
been producing soles in the US since
1964 and proudly provides soles to every
branch of the US Military.

VIBRAM PERFORMANCE
Each new Vibram product is designed for a particular use and engineered to meet three objectives:
performance, comfort, and durability. The secret to Vibram performance lies in the combination of an
innovative, functional design, and the compounds we use.
VIBRAM DESIGN
Vibram designers are not only experts in appearance, they are technical experts trained to evaluate the characteristics each sole needs
to have for its intended use. Vibram designers also work in close collaboration with the Vibram Tester Team. Our designers use the Tester
Team’s feedback when designing new product for specific applications. Designers also collaborate with many biomechanical research
institutes in order to identify new lines, volumes, and forms, all with the goal of developing functional and comfortable soles while ensuring
top performance.
4
VIBRAM COMPOUNDS
Not one compound is suitable for all physical activities. However, these key characteristics are common to most uses:
• Resistance to wear, which is defined as abrasion resistance.
• Softness, which is defined as hardness. Vibram compounds offer a wide range of hardness levels. All levels have excellent wear resistance.
5
TESTED WHERE IT MATTERS
Before Vibram products reach the market, they are all tested using strict quality controls. We carry out these tests in our SATRA-
certified laboratories by certified technicians or directly in the field by the Vibram Tester Team.
Every Vibram sole has to pass three levels of testing to guarantee that the product quality meets the end consumer’s requirements.

STAGE 2 – IN VIVO TESTS
In addition to extensive laboratory testing, soles are also tested with Vibram In-Vivo test protocols. Vibram In-Vivo test methods have been
designed and developed to replicate real world usage of Vibram products.
Tests for attributes such as “static grip” use the proprietary MAX TRACTION MERIDIAN test protocols.

CERTIFIED SAFETY AND QUALITY
REACH
SATRA
SATRA, the leading worldwide research center for footwear technology, research and development, provides its support and expertise
in all stages of product development, from initial research to the evaluation of materials and components, up to and including testing
and certification, guaranteeing the highest levels of quality.

both have SATRA certification.

Trimming too close to the arctic grip will leave the material vulnerable to
