Red Wing Shoe Store
Shoe Store in Salt Lake City, UT
Vasque founder William D. Sweasy traveled to Europe in 1965 and found our future. Outdoor recreation and mountaineering were sweeping the continent, and Sweasy knew it was a matter of time until the craze found its way stateside. He started preparing his best quality mountaineering and hiking boots so he'd be ready when the time came. After a brief run under the brand name Voyaguer, Sweasy changed the name to Vasque in 1971 (for Fort Vasquez in the mountain mecca of Colorado) And no, the rest is not history. The Vasque trail continues today, breaking new ground toward what's next.

In the decades that followed, Vasque steadily built a legacy of outdoor excellence, one pair of footwear at a time. Our legacy is stronger than ever today, and we're ready for the adventure of the years to come. These boots are made for walking. And hiking, and backpacking, and living.
