The Crispi Story

Italian Craftsmanship. Mountain-Proven Performance.

In 1975, Alessandro Marcolin founded Crispi Sport in a small workshop in Montebelluna, Italy — a town nestled at the foot of the Dolomites and world-renowned for technical footwear craftsmanship. What began in a space barely big enough for a Fiat 500 has grown into one of the most respected names in hunting and mountain footwear on the planet.

Unlike most boot companies that adapt hiking boots for the hunt, Crispi was born for the outdoors. Every boot is purpose-built for the specific demands of hunters — from backcountry elk pursuits to early-season whitetail — combining traditional Italian artisanship with the most advanced materials available.

Today, distributed in 54 countries worldwide, Crispi works directly with North American hunters to develop boots sized and built for the American foot — wider toe boxes, refined fits, and models dialed for the terrain, seasons, and pursuits that define hunting in the U.S.

What's Inside Every Boot
Built Different. By Design.
01

GORE-TEX® Full Surround Lining

Not a partial waterproof treatment — a full GORE-TEX® booty that wraps the entire foot. Completely waterproof, fully breathable, and built to stay that way for the life of the boot.

02

Vibram® Outsoles

Every Crispi boot runs a Vibram® outsole — the gold standard in traction. Multiple sole patterns and compounds are matched to specific boot models and terrain types.

03

EFX Dual-Density Midsole

Crispi's proprietary EFX midsole combines two densities of polyurethane for superior shock absorption and all-day comfort — even under heavy pack weight.

04

ABSS Ankle Support System

The Ankle Bone Support System provides superior lateral ankle support without restricting natural movement — reducing fatigue on long miles without sacrificing mobility.

05

Board Last Flex System

Crispi rates every boot on a flex scale — from 2 (highly flexible, high-activity) to 5 (maximum support, heavy load). Match your boot to your hunt, not the other way around.

06

Premium Leather & PUtek® Uppers

Full-grain Nubuck leather and proprietary PUtek® fabric provide structure, abrasion resistance, and natural weather repellency that improves with conditioning and field use.

Common Questions
Crispi Boots FAQ

Everything you need to know about Crispi boots — sizing, fit, waterproofing, and which model is right for your hunt.

Is DNW Outdoors an authorized Crispi dealer?

Yes — DNW Outdoors is a fully authorized Crispi dealer. Every boot we sell is 100% genuine Crispi, covered under the full 12-month manufacturer warranty.

How do Crispi boots fit? Should I size up or down?

Crispi boots generally run true to size. Hunters with wider or higher-volume feet may want to go up a half size. Crispi USA has specifically widened toe boxes on their North American models. If in doubt, contact us before ordering — we're happy to help.

What is the best Crispi boot for elk hunting?

For backcountry elk, the Briksdal MTN GTX or Nevada GTX are top picks — non-insulated with GORE-TEX® waterproofing and Vibram® Megagrip outsoles. The Briksdal has a stiffer flex for heavy packs on technical terrain. The Nevada is more versatile across conditions.

What is the best Crispi boot for whitetail deer hunting?

For tree stand hunting in Arkansas, the Nevada GTX 200g or Colorado II GTX insulated models are excellent — warm enough for cold morning sits, comfortable for walking in and out. For warm early-season or rut hunting, the uninsulated Nevada GTX keeps feet cool and dry.

Are Crispi boots waterproof?

Yes. Every Crispi boot uses a GORE-TEX® full surround lining that wraps the entire foot — not a spray-on treatment. Crispi's installation method is designed to minimize the flex stress that causes premature GORE-TEX failure in other boots, so it stays waterproof for the life of the boot.

What is the Crispi Flex Rating system?

Crispi rates every boot from Flex 2 (highly flexible, lightweight — best for fast active hunts) to Flex 5 (maximum stiffness — best for heavy loads and technical alpine terrain). Flex 3 is the most versatile and suits most hunters well. Matching flex to your hunt style is one of the most important boot decisions you can make.

How do I care for and waterproof my Crispi boots?

Use Crispi's official Waterproofing Cream on the leather upper. After each hunt, clean mud off the boots, allow them to dry naturally away from direct heat, and store in a cool dry place. Crispi boot care products are available at DNW Outdoors.
