Meet
The Bootmakers
A
Family Tradition
Celebrating
100 years of bootmaking
1910
- 2010.

Since 1910 the Rossiter family have
been making footwear in Australia
Maintaining a tradition that was
started by Arthur Rossiter who founded Rossiters Pty Ltd in 1910 working from
a small tin shed in his backyard, he was in fact starting an organisation
that would
continue to produce quality boots
for many decades.
It’s this heritage and
quality of workmanship passed down through generations of our family that has
been instrumental to the longevity and success of Rossiters Pty Ltd. Today,
members of the Rossiter family are still actively involved and so too are the
descendants of the original Rossiter employees.
At Rossi Boots, we
pride ourselves on offering uncompromising quality and value for money. There
are no short cuts to quality, and we always endeavour to select and use the
finest materials to ensure that each boot is constructed to perform beyond
expectations.
In the early days
Rossi Boots were major suppliers to the military. As our reputation spread,
we were constantly asked to develop specialised designs for sportspeople.
Rossi cricket and football boots were famous for their fit and durability.
This expertise has stood us in great stead, because today, we offer a range
of superbly crafted footwear of which we are extremely proud.
Rossi Boots
continue to keep “in step” with the ever changing lifestyles of our customers
too.
Today, just about
anything you do, you can do in a Rossi boot and now Rossi shoe.
Rossi Boots are
available in every state of Australia and are fast becoming a brand of
international repute. The hugely diverse Australian climate and landscape
requires comfortable, quality products with outstanding durability. Our
modern and well-equipped factory situated in Hilton, Adelaide, South
Australia, combines tried and true blue craftsmanship with state of the art
technology. Our up to date facility provides our customers with superior
quality that is synonymous with Rossi Boots brand name.
The Factory may be
a marked improvement from our days in the backyard workshop, but our values
and work ethic remain the same. It’s our pride, care and attention to detail
that makes such a big difference to every boot we make…. it’s a difference
that guarantees customer satisfaction.
Keeping the
business Australian has become a family and company philosophy. Rossi
Boots is the only significant shoe manufacturer in Australia to keep every
aspect of production local.
“When
you get this sort of tradition it’s something to be proud of.”
Dean Rossiter - Chief
Executive Officer
