La Sportiva's new line of footwear aimed at fast hiking and trekking, improving lightness, comfort and breathability without compromising waterproofing.
The
Core High Gtx incorporates the new Gore Tex mountain shoe technology called Surround, achieving 360º breathability, making the shoe breathe in all directions.
The
Gore-Tex & reg; Surround is a waterproof and breathable fabric thanks to the main membrane of expanded Teflon (PTFE). Its surface is composed of 1,400 million microscopic pores for each square centimeter of surface area, these pores being much smaller than a drop of water and much larger than a molecule of water vapor. In this way, the drop of water is prevented from passing through the fabric and at the same time that the body moisture can be transported to the outside without any problem, achieving excellent perspiration qualities.
The
Surround extension refers to the fabric construction system and its format to include it in the footwear. It consists of the manufacture of a complete covering of the foot including the sole area, thus achieving an exceptional level of impermeability. At the same time, this system manages to maintain the high breathability properties due to the fact that it includes an open-structure separator between the membrane and the midsole that also provides extra cushioning and comfort in the step. With this procedure, it is possible not to alter the construction of the sole or the grip, avoiding unnecessary perforations that would constitute a weak point in mountain footwear.
The stabilizer provides a cushioning enhancement that is generally based on a Compressed Eva that adds cushioning, comfort and vibration cancellation. The midsole is completed with the anti-torsion stabilizer of the Bushido shoe, STB Control System to improve the tread.
The boot is completed with a
mesh structure to improve breathability and comfort, covered with a flexible and lightweight
Nano Cell frame, which improves comfort and lightness.
The lower part of the outer fabric is made with a material with smaller cells to avoid the entry of particles that could worsen the performance of the
Gore Tex Surround perspiration through the spacer.
The Vibram sole of this family of fast running is built from the drawing of the well-known Ultraraptor with a similar arrangement of studs and with the
Impact Brake System to improve the grip and traction of the tread.
It also adds a specific
Ortholite insole for Surround technology that improves cushioning and lower breathability.
