ITURRI

ITURRI is a family-owned Spanish group based in Seville. It began in 1947 supplying the port and grew into a maker of workwear, protective gear, footwear and specialist vehicles. Its own footwear plant at La Palma del Condado in Andalusia builds technical boots and shoes, while other plants turn out clothing and fire and defence vehicles, all backed by an in-house test laboratory. For armed forces and police it designs uniforms, multilayer and flame-resistant clothing, desert and cold-weather boots, load-carrying vests and protective equipment. The group also makes gloves and head, hearing and respiratory protection for industry, emergency services and healthcare. Airsoft players mostly know ITURRI for its military boots, both desert and cold-weather patterns, which hold up well through long skirmish days and multi-day milsim events. Its gloves and load-carrying vests also turn up in kit bags. UK players buy them through airsoft shops and army surplus stores, while the group itself sells direct to companies and public bodies.
