THERE ARE THREE ESSENTIALS IN LIFE……FOOD, SHELTER, AND A GOOD PAIR OF BOOTS.

We think you're going to have a hard time coming up with food and shelter without a good pair of boots.

LaCrosse stands for the highest quality rugged footwear you can find, built so people who work and play outdoors can do it without worrying about their feet. It's a reputation we're proud of because we earned it the hard way, by holding ourselves accountable for the performance of each and every boot we make.

After 100 years we're still protecting feet in adverse conditions - building tough, hard-working boots for people who need to get out earlier, go deeper and stay longer than the rest. Because if you can't stay out all day, you might as well stay inside.

Company History

LaCrosse Footwear, Inc. has been providing performance footwear and apparel to keep people warm, dry, and comfortable since 1897. They began manufacturing rubber horseshoes in La Crosse, Wisconsin on a patch of land called Indian Hill - reputedly owned by "Buffalo Bill" Cody. The horseshoes soon gave way to rubber-coated fabrics and raincoats, which the company manufactured until 1906, when it switched to rubber footwear.

Today, LaCrosse Footwear, Inc. designs, manufactures, and markets premium quality rubber, leather and vinyl footwear for sporting, recreational and occupational markets. Generations of people have trusted the LaCrosse name to be synonymous with superior craftsmanship, the finest materials, and proven innovations.
