ORIGINAL IS ICONIC. ICONIC IS TIMELESS: SUPERTREK GTX

THE END CONSUMER DRIVEN PROJECT:

In the last seven years Asolo has changed the conversation with its end-consumers involving them in strategic brand decision, product and technologies development. The new Supertrek Gtx has been developed together with 120.000 consumers who step by step followed and had been involved in the introduction of this new Adventure Lifestyle model.

The project started by receiving a picture from a photographer who was in Manhattan photo shooting a model with an urban outdoor style and wearing an old pair of Asolo boots: the Supertrek.

The Supertrek model was one of the first model introduced by Asolo in the 1975 which combines water-resistant suede leather and Cordura material and it soon become an iconic model for the brand.

ORIGINAL IS ICONIC. ICONIC IS TIMELESS.

40 years later, Asolo together with its end-consumers re-introduce the old Asolo model. The product developing continued the conversation with end consumers and before proceeding with each engineering step, was asked to the consumers their preferences on the design, the outsole technologies and the colours of the model.

The result is Supertrek GTX, a model completely developed together with the community which will be in the Asolo 2023 Fall-Winter Collection: the spirit of old-school mountain style which not much changed from the original Supertrek makes this model a comfortable and lightweight model for wearing on city and on the trails.
