contents We establish the local boundedness of the local minimizers $u:Ω\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^{m}$ of non-uniformly elliptic integrals of the form $\int_Ωf(x,Dv)\,dx$, where $Ω$ is a bounded open subset of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ ($n\geq2)$ and the integrand satisfies anisotropic growth conditions of the type \[ \sum_{i=1}^{n}λ_{i}(x)|ξ_{i}|^{p_{i}}\le f(x,ξ)\leμ(x)\left\{ 1+|ξ|^{q}\right\} \] for some exponents $q\geq p_{i}>1$ and with non-negative functions $λ_{i},μ$ fulfilling suitable summability assumptions. The main novelties here are the degenerate and anisotropic behaviour of the integrand and the fact that we also address the case of vectorial minimizers ($m>1$). Our proof is based on the celebrated Moser iteration technique and employs an embedding result for anisotropic Sobolev spaces.
