Dolomite Braies GORE-TEX Women's Walking Boots
The unmistakable retro-style, iconic Dolomite boot is reinterpreted in a contemporary key: a modern solution for both pavements and trails, designed especially for high-performance, everyday urban hiking. The Braies GORE-TEX is the next must-have and is set to rewrite the look of the modern-day adventurer.
GORE-TEX Upper
Constructed using a nubuck leather upper, the Dolomite Braies GORE-TEX Walking Boots offer a wider range of protection to help you gain the maximum from your footwear. The soft leather upper keeps the feet protected from debris and sharp objects as well as minimising the risks of wear and tear. 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.
Completing the upper is metal lace hooks with a practical lacing that locks down the midfoot to reduce in-shoe slippage so you can enjoy distraction-free strides. A stretch gusset ensures an ergonomic fit and a mountain boot inspired design reflects Dolomite's origins. With a pioneering style that can be used in urban settings, the Braies GORE-TEX is an extremely versatile boot.
EVA Midsole
Designed to provide comfort and protection on uneven terrain, the midsole has been constructed using varied thickness EVA foam. The EVA resides underfoot for lightweight, responsive cushioning. Generous, soft and durable, it spares your joints as you strike down onto hard, unforgiving surfaces. Exceptionally lightweight, the EVA ensures long-lasting cushioning to keep you comfortable on long-distance days. EVA is extremely firm, which will absorb shocks instantly and effectively, preventing them from causing any damage to the sole of the foot. Energy produced from this will also be returned as rebound, which will give you an added spring in your step. As well as this, Dolomites Anatomic System Light offers a comfortable fit and works to make walking easier by reducing fatigue and improving posture. Dolomite DAS Light is the combination of an ergonomic last and footbed which brings you greater stability and balance so you can go further for longer.
Vibram Ice Trek 2 Outsole
Developed using a Vibram outsole, the Braies provides extreme grip and traction for all surface wear. Constructed for extremely slippery terrain, the extremely durable rubber can form a solid bond with the ground to anchor you in place. Despite facing abuse from rough ground, the rubber stands up against this, deflecting the blows and retaining a strong shape and structure. The Vibram Ice Trek 2 Outsole offers superior grip on icy surfaces and cold terrain. Providing you with excellent grip and traction, these walking boots will be an excellent addition to any mountaineering enthusiast. Ensuring multi-directional grip the outsole ensures traction on varied terrain ensuring confident footing on varied terrain. The durable rubber provides a strong grip on the most challenging terrain; it works to protect itself from damage, and protect users from losing control and slipping.
