A Legacy Born in the French Alps

Since its inception in 1952, Fusalp has seamlessly combined French elegance with high-performance, becoming a beacon of style on and off the slopes. Rooted in the heart of the French Alps, this iconic brand, which takes its name from an abbreviation of ‘fuseau from the Alps’ is a testament to it's two visionary founding tailors.

Championing Excellence on the Global Stage

Over the years, Fusalp has evolved into a symbol of excellence, embraced by generations of ski champions who have showcased the brand's prowess on the international stage. From the Goitschel sisters at the 1964 Olympic Games to Jean-Claude Killy in 1968, Fusalp has been a constant companion to athletes embodying discipline, performance, and style.

Harmony of Tradition and Modernity

Fusalp's creative director, Mathilde Lacoste, orchestrates a perfect harmony between tradition and modernity. The brand's commitment to innovation and style is evident in its contemporary collections, designed for both winter and summer, seamlessly blending technicity, functionality, and elegance - the three pillars of Fusalp's DNA.

Global Commitment to Sustainability

Fusalp's commitment to sustainability is reflected in its ambitious goal to reduce its carbon footprint.

Reducing plastic packaging and being a signatory to the Fashion Pact, a global coalition for environmental protection, further solidify Fusalp's commitment to sustainability. The brand aims not only to design and manufacture timeless, versatile products but also to contribute to a healthier planet for future generations.

The brand's research and development department, in collaboration with its material test laboratory in Annecy, rigorously tests products for waterproofing, mechanical strength, abrasion risk, and more, ensuring a high level of technical expertise and innovation.

Emphasizing the principle that the longer a garment lasts, the lower its impact on the planet, Fusalp commits to lifetime reparability.
