TECHNOLOGY:

 

GORE-TEX®: Whatever the weather, Gore-Tex® shoes keep your feet dry and keep you comfortable. All Gore-Tex® shoes are waterproof and highly breathable.

Cold weather, an increase in weight, blisters: very often, as soon as your feet get wet, the activity stops being so fun. This is why shoes made with Gore-Tex® product technology are essential for trails and summits around the world

VIBRAM®: The benchmark for high-productivity rubber soles. Exclusive compositions are created according to the specific requirements of each activity. For hiking and trekking, shoes with Vibram technology have a sole that ensures optimal traction, support and cushioning, even on uneven terrain.

 

3D FLEX SYSTEM: Multi-directional hinge on the upper for natural ankle movement without loss of stability. This innovative system has multiple advantages:

  • Greater foot control on the ground
  • Larger sole surface in contact with the ground
  • Increased stability
  • Improved foot hold
  • Firmer heel

 

IMPACT BRAKE SYSTEM: The innovative system is applied to the sole to absorb negative ground impact, help traction and improve grip downhill. Created and developed by La Sportiva R&D department, the Impact Brake System provides real racing advantages by reducing the negative impact on the ground. The unique position of the studs allows as many of them as possible to come into contact with the ground, for maximum impact absorption.

BRAKE: increased braking effect / greater traction

IMPACT: improved shock absorption on impact / less stress on joints

 

COMPOSITION:

 

EVA: The moulded EVA insert provides lightweight cushioning and stability.
