For their work on high-altitude construction sites, Giovanni and Paolo Curzel, stars of the television show "Falegnami ad Alta Quota," have chosen the comfort of AKU. They've also extended this choice to their entire team since last season of the hit show, which airs March 20th on DMAX channel 52.
The Curzel team's decision is based on the importance of equipping professionals with footwear designed and manufactured by a company that has specialized in the production of high-quality mountain shoes for over 40 years, with an undisputed leadership in terms of comfort, a key safety requirement.
Collaborating with mountain professionals has always been a cornerstone of AKU's footwear development strategy, whether we're talking about mountaineering models dedicated to the world of guides or mountain rescue, or whether we're talking about meeting the needs of professional users in various fields of work involving contact with the natural environment.
Given the particular environmental conditions in which their high-altitude construction sites are set up, the Curzel team has chosen to work with lightweight, high-performance models, born from the mountaineering collection, ideal for moving with agility and safety on and off the construction site, both on the ground and during delicate operations on structures and vehicles.
"We are very pleased to have chosen the AKU brand as our footwear partner during the filming of the show and for our daily work on mountain construction sites," said Giovanni and Paolo Curzel. "To move safely and comfortably in certain environments, you need footwear that guarantees excellent comfort, a specific requirement for AKU models, which has also led to a significant reduction in fatigue at the end of the workday. This feeling of comfort also extends to the footwear's thermal insulation and breathability, two requirements that enhance the sense of reliability and safety during intense use on all types of terrain."
The AKU – CURZEL collaboration is one of the initiatives launched by the Montebelluna-based shoe factory to highlight its presence in the professional work and safety supplies market. The company offers a range of models for this sector, including footwear certified as personal protective equipment (PPE) for work at height, forestry, and occupational models, as well as a wide range of footwear for security forces and the military.
CRODA DFS GTX, VIAZ DFS GTX and ROCK DSF GTX, are the mountaineering models worn by the Curzel team during all the filming of the programme FALEGNAMI AD ALTA QUOTA (High-altitude carpenters -Ed), for carpentry activities on mountain construction sites.
