LOWA Vajolet GORE-TEX Mid Walking Boots
A classic mountain boot for year-round use, the Vajolet GORE-TEX Mids are a perfect companion for whatever you choose to tackle next.
GORE-TEX Upper
Providing feet with optimised breathability, waterproof protection and extreme comfort, the Vajolet GORE-TEX Mid Walking Boots have a full-grain leather upper, alongside a GORE-TEX membrane. Providing feet with comfort and cosiness when wearing, the Vajolet Walking Boots have a durable full-grain leather upper, which not only keeps feet shielded from the knocks and bumps of the trails but also provides excellent next-to-skin comfort, due to the limited stitching present through the construction. Additionally, the materials have moisture-wicking properties to prevent a build-up of sweat and moisture when hiking, even during the more intense periods of your adventures. The hiking boots also utilise a GORE-TEX membrane to provide your feet with guaranteed weather protection, even during heavy rain or snow. This innovative technology is permanently waterproof, highly breathable and windproof shielding you in changing conditions. Further enhancing the protection for your feet to thrive, the boots have PU-reinforced segments to add durability, keeping feet safe from knocks and bumps. A wrap-around rubber rand also protects the boots from being damaged by sharp rocks and knife-edged glacier ice. Enhancing the flexibility of the upper and allowing your ankles to bend more naturally when wearing, the boots utilise LOWA's FlexFit technology. Working alongside this, the boot's eyelets and a flexible lacing hook are utilised to improve your heel comfort and facilitate the natural bending of your feet. Additionally, the boots have a C4-Tongue system, specially designed with extra padding and adapted to the anatomy of your foot, to provide you with a soft, comfortable wearing experience. This works alongside the 2 Zone Lacing construction with extended lacing providing you with a perfect fit and feel and ensuring the shoes adapt perfectly to the shape of your foot. This therefore helps to prevent in-shoe slipping and keeps feet secure when wearing.
PU Midsole
To ensure optimal underfoot cushioning and extreme comfort levels, the boots utilise a PU midsole. The soft cushioning absorbs impact when striking down onto changing terrains below, whilst is also highly durable. This soft compound helps reduce injuries and discomfort when enduring the trickier paths and keeping feet more comfortable during long pursuits. A pinched shank also helps to add stability to your stride, helping to reduce ankle rolling and keeping you secure on the ground below.
Vibram ALP TRAC Outsole
The Vajolet GORE-TEX Mid utilises the Vibram ALP TRAC outsole, specifically designed for alpine conditions. The outsole provides excellent grip and traction across changing, difficult terrain, whilst having large "climbing zone" details on the sole tip to enable you to move more precisely when manoeuvring up sheer rock faces. The strategically placed lugs ensure that dirt will be shaken loose when wearing. Not only this, but they work to dip deep into wet, muddy terrain, providing you with excellent traction and grip. Finally, the sole has been designed to provide you with closer ground contact, creating a good feel on the surface, and ensuring a more natural feel during challenging tours, with stable footing on uneven terrain.
