Dolomite Braies Up GORE-TEX Women's Walking Shoes

Designed for everyday life and easy off-road hikes, these shoes offer a lightweight upper made out of a carefully selected mix of breathable mesh whilst the GORE-TEX lining keeps feet dry in the worst of conditions, yet cool to wear every day.

GORE-TEX Upper

Constructed using a combination of stretch mesh fabric and nubuck leather, the Dolomite Braies Up GORE-TEX Walking Shoes offer a wider range of protection to help you gain the maximum from your footwear. The upper has been created with a stretch mesh fabric that moves with the foot to provide ultimate comfort while allowing built-up heat to escape and cool air to flow for a comfortable wearing experience. Nubuck leather overlays protect from debris and sharp objects and minimise wear and tear. The overlays also add structure to the mid-cut shoe increasing ankle support. To avoid damp feet, and therefore dampened spirits, a GORE-TEX membrane resides inside the shoe; supplying a combination of durable waterproofing and optimised breathability. Sometimes it's hard to stay dry without developing that distracting clammy feeling, but GORE-TEX keeps water on the outside while letting perspiration escape from the inside; keeping sweat to a minimum and you, cool and comfy. A traditional lacing system completes the shoes, locking in the midfoot for reduced in-shoe movement for distraction-free movement.

EVA Midsole

Designed to provide comfort and protection on uneven terrain, the construction of the midsole uses varied thickness EVA foam. The EVA resides underfoot for lightweight, responsive cushioning. Generous, soft and durable, it spares your joints as you strike down on hard, unforgiving surfaces. Exceptionally lightweight, the EVA ensures long-lasting cushioning to keep you comfortable on long-distance days. EVA is extremely firm, absorbing shocks instantly and effectively, preventing them from causing any damage to the sole. The energy produced will also be returned as a rebound, adding spring to your step. Dolomites Anatomic System Light offers a comfortable fit and works to make walking easier by reducing fatigue and improving posture. Dolomite DAS Light combines an ergonomic last and footbed bringing greater stability and balance so you can go further for longer.

Vibram XS Trek Outsole

The outsole is durable and forms a solid bond with the ground, giving you excellent grip. The lug pattern is designed to provide advanced traction on variable terrain, giving you better stability and control, so you can step out confidently. As the compound is ultra-durable, you also get to experience long-lasting use and enjoyment, for a choice that is not only eco-friendly but pocket-friendly too.
