La Sportiva Hyper GORE-TEX Walking Shoes
The Hyper GORE-TEX Walking Shoes from La Sportiva have been designed for technical approach routes and offers innovative technical solutions with both the uppers and the sole/midsole system providing optimal waterproof protection.
Leather GORE-TEX Upper
The Hyper Walking Shoes offer a GORE-TEX upper that combines durable waterproofness and optimised breathability, offering enduring waterproof protection and optimised climate comfort. Water stays on the outside while perspiration can easily escape from the inside, thanks to their innovative construction they are an ideal solution for the widest range of outdoor activities and changing weather conditions. This model distinguishes itself from the other trekking products thanks to the innovative waterproof and abrasion-resistant upper. In addition, a 3D Flex system is applied to the heel and works in tandem with the EVA stabiliser insert to offer superb support and allows for maximum control on steep terrain. The graded lacing system allows for perfect regulation of volumes while a protective toe cap is added for excellent protection against rocks and other trail hazards. Lastly, a pull tab on the heel assists in putting the shoes on and off.
Moulded MEMflex EVA Midsole
The Hyper Shoes from La Sportiva uses a Moulded MEMlex EVA midsole which differs from the standard compression moulded EVA midsoles for a high degree of cushioning and a better elasticity of the compound. These features assist the propulsion phase of the gait cycle, making these shoes ideal for use on offroad trails. Furthermore, EVA injected midsoles drastically reduce the squash effect of the EVA over time, allowing the compound to maintain the same characteristics and high performance for its entire duration.
Vibram Outsole
The outsole compound is constructed from Vibram technology that provides unparalleled grip on wet and dry surfaces to ensure you can perform no matter what. The outsole additionally supplies you with superior grip with rugged longevity as well as the optimal balance of stability and flexibility for ground adaptation, allowing you the feedback that you're getting from your foothold. The outsole also features a climbing zone at the toe for extra grip where needed as well as an impact brake system that enhances traction uphill and downhill, providing confidence when traversing over unpredictable terrain.
