A community dedicated to talking about, discovering, flaunting and discussing consumer products that are made in Europe by European companies.

Definitions:

Consumer Products: anything that you and I, as regular people, can buy. We all love Gripen fighter jets, but they don't belong here.
Made in Europe: Manufactured and readily available in the European Union, Ukraine, Norway, Iceland, Switzerland, UK etc. The more local, niche, artisanal, environmentally friendly or socially responsible, the better.
European companies: Independant companies or companies mostly or fully owned by other European companies.

Rules:

Don't be a cunt. We do not tolerate racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, xenophobia or any other kind of discrimination. Authoritarian and autocratic regimes apologists won't be tolerated either.
Only post about consumer products. Our sister communities are overrun with posts about EU economic and trade policies, defense spending or industry trends. Any post like that will be deleted.
Exceptions can be made to promote tech companies who can't (yet) build their products in Europe yet are fully European and privacy respecting (examples include FairPhone, Jolla, Polar etc.)

Snowboard boots (programming.dev)

Any suggestions on European owned, made in Europe Snowboard boots? (Or at least European owned if we do not make any boots here?)

I am looking for fairly entry level equipment, but I could be fine with paying a little bit more if that is the only way of getting European products.

I believe Nidecker is Swiss and Northwave is Italian. Not sure where either are manufactured though...info might be available in their websites.

I have heard about Nidecker, but Northwave is a new brand for me. Thanks, I will investigate!

Seems like Nidecker produces in Switzerland but also in Tunisia and China. Note that it is for snowboards, so the boots could be produced elsewhere.

I found this nice infographic on Reddit but it is 11 years old so it might not be relevant any longer.
