Features

Hanwag Sky GTX features

Vibram®

Named after Italian "Vittorio Bramani", probably the best-known manufacturer of high-end sole units.

GORE-TEX®

Patented ultra-lightweight microporous expanded PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) membrane. Durably waterproof and very breathable.

Ghilly-lacing

Flexible instep lacing with loops. Allows a tight fit, yet guarantees mobility.

100% resolable

Thanks to their cemented construction or double stitched construction our boots and shoes can be resoled as many times as required.

Air-Pulse System

Increased comfort and enhanced air circulation due to a pumping action in the tongue and cushioning while walking.

Click Clamp

Special clamping eyelets enable different lacing tensions at the fore-/mid foot and around the ankle (2-zone lacing).

*Many footwear manufacturers categorise their boots into categories A, B, C and D. Hiking boots in category C are suitable even for multi-day treks on rough terrain with a heavy rucksack - like a paragliding backpack! They have a stiff sole which is suitable for flexible crampons; the hybrid step-in style ones, also known as 'semi-automatic'.
