Salomon Crosstrak Powder Waterproof Walking Boots
No snow adventure is too gnarly for the Crosstrak Powder Waterproof. This high-cut walking boot has been designed to grip the snow whether deep or packed thanks to specific lugs that cover the bottom and sides of the midsole. High-performance insulation material and a waterproof membrane keep the freeze out and the warmth in.
PU-Coated Leather/ Textile Upper
Constructed using a PU-coated leather and textile upper, the Crosstrak Powder ensure feet stay in place with every stride for added comfort whilst keeping you protected throughout your adventure. A padded tongue is connected to the upper on both sides to prevent debris from entering the boot and keep the tongue centred and comfortable against the foot. To avoid damp feet and therefore dampened spirits, an adv.DRY membrane Salomon's three-layer waterproof laminate. Made with a PFC-free membrane sandwiched between 100% recycled fabric and nylon backing. This stops water and moisture from entering the boot but is highly breathable allowing built-up heat and vapour to escape. Keeping feet warm Salomon has included adv.WARM: Advanced cold-weather insulation, providing an excellent weight-to-warmth ratio with small air pockets between the fibre balls that trap body heat. The insulation has been made from 70% recycled polyester. Utilising Sensifit, the boots have a clever construction to provide a precise, optimal foothold and comfort. A Quicklace system with a lace pocket locks the midfoot and reduces in-boot movement for distraction-free strides and finally, two pull handles assist in putting the boots on and off.
EnergyCell Midsole
Within the midsole, the boot has injected and compressed EVA forming the EnergyCell midsole. This multi-functional midsole will provide both comfort and protection thanks to this dual-density EVA. Towards the bottom, the EVA is firm absorbing shocks instantly and effectively, preventing them from causing any damage to the sole. The energy produced will be returned as a rebound giving spring to your step. The higher you get in the midsole the EVA is less dense, making every step feel comfortable. The winter sockliner has been designed for cold temperatures, featuring a 4mm layer of EVA foam for increased insulation, providing the foot with exceptional cushioning whilst reducing the risk of irritation caused by rubbing and chafing.
Winter Contagrip Outsole
The sole of the Crosstrak has been made from the ultra-grippy Contagrip Winter rubber compound, providing you with an unmatched level of grip and traction in the snowy terrain. This compound means the boots will form a solid grip between the boot and the terrain but will work to shed snow and mud quickly. Due to its unique composition, the sole is flexible even in the coldest weather to maintain grip and provide confidence as each stride takes you deeper into winter. This is due to their large lugs, providing you with the perfect level of grip, the lugs dig into the ground, anchoring you in place. This will benefit you by acting as a solid base to push off from when taking your next stride.
