Nico Favresse

Climbing as a Way of Life

Nico Favresse ambassador climbing

A free spirit and authentic adventurer, Nico Favresse is one of the most complete and creative climbers on the international scene. Born in Belgium, he has turned his passion for the outdoors into a career that combines extreme climbing, travel, and
exploration
, always with a mindful approach to nature and sustainability.

Throughout his career, Nico has achieved legendary ascents on big walls around the world, from the Alps to the Himalayas, standing out for an unmistakable style that blends technique, humor, and music—another of his great passions, which often accompanies him even on
the wall.

His connection with SCARPA comes from a deep sharing of values: innovation, respect for the environment, and authenticity. For Nico, climbing shoes are not just technical tools but a direct connection to the rock, and with SCARPA he has found a partner capable of supporting his most ambitious challenges.

His favorite model is the Boostic R,which provides the sensitivity and precision needed to push beyond his limits while maintaining a unique feeling with the wall.
